BIMCO’s new DISMANTLECON contract, the first global standard contract designed for the dismantling and removal of offshore structures in the energy sector, is now available and aims to provide a balanced set of terms and conditions to both parties in the process.

DISMANTLECON is marine services contract for offshore structure dismantling work and transport to a designated place of delivery. The agreement can be used for the removal of any offshore structure ranging from field architecture to entire structures and is intended for use in jurisdictions world-wide. It does not cover the disposal of the dismantled structures onshore and this will require a separate agreement with an onshore disposal contractor. DISMANTLECON operates on a knock for knock liability regime, which means that each party is responsible for and should indemnify the other in respect of loss of or damage to their own property, and injury to or death of their own personnel, regardless of fault.
