Cranes and lifting operations on ships and mobile offshore units

On this page you can find information about our crane regulations. Information has also been published on how to be approved by the NMA as an inspector of cranes on Norwegian ships and/or mobile offshore units, and what the NMA expects of those who approve cranes on our behalf.

Cranes for use at quay and in enclosed waters (on ships)

These regulations apply to cranes that are only used in enclosed waters for loading and unloading to/from quay when the ship is moored to land, and to internal lifting on the ship.
