The last revision of the DNV recommended practice “Fatigue Analysis of Offshore Steel Structures” is from October 2001. During use of this standard some feed back from designers around the world have been received. Also some new research in the area has been performed in the time interval from it was first developed. It is also realised that the document is being used for fatigue design of some other types of details and structures than was thought of when the document was originally developed. Therefore it was now found convenient to revise the document to incorporate the experience gained and new research and developments made in the area of fatigue of offshore structures the last 7 years since the main content for this recommended practice was developed.
