Background and Purpose
Dynamic Positioning Systems (DPSs),
Emergency Disconnect Systems (EDSs),
Blowout Preventers (BOPs) and related
training and emergency procedures are
critical to the safety of a MODU actively
engaged in drilling. Operators,
technicians, and inspectors should view
these integrated systems holistically, but
the myriad requirements imposed by
multiple oversight entities makes this
exceedingly difficult. For example,
these systems are subject to
international guidelines, Coast Guard
and Bureau of Safety and Environmental
Enforcement (BSEE) regulations,
industry standards and Flag State
requirements. The draft policy letter
(available in the docket for this notice)
would give guidance on how to witness
inspection and tests of these critical
systems by industry and BSEE in a
holistic way using the various
requirements, standards and guidelines.
It would encourage Coast Guard Officerin-charge of Marine Inspections
(‘‘OCMI’’), at the invitation of BSEE,
operator or MODU contractor, to
witness drills and equipment tests of
these systems during a joint visit with
BSEE when a MODU is not drilling,
typically when the MODU arrives at a
new well location. The policy letter
would encourage OCMIs to establish
early communication with the operator,
MODU contractor, and BSEE in order to
prevent any delay in oil exploration.
This policy letter represents a
preliminary effort to better understand
how industry conducts these tests,
enhance communication and
coordination with BSEE, inform future
rulemaking, and investigate how
oversight of these critical systems and
training could be incorporated into
future inspection policy.

The guidance contained in the draft
policy letter is not a substitute for
applicable legal requirements, nor is it
itself a rule. If finalized, it would
provide operational guidance for Coast
Guard personnel. It is not the Coast
Guard’s intent to impose legally binding
requirements on any party outside the
Coast Guard through this policy letter.
The policy letter would represent the
Coast Guard’s current thinking on this
topic and could assist industry,
mariners, the general public, and the
Coast Guard, as well as other Federal
and state regulators, in applying
statutory and regulatory requirements.
