dhns,

For hazard analysis of offshore installations you need to refer 'API RP 14J'.

The title of this API RP is:

Recommended Practice for Design and Hazards Analysis for Offshore Production Facilities

It is the best available guideline or recommended practice for safety related aspects on offshore installations.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Ankur.
