ABSTRACT:
Improved method and system for escaping from an offshore drilling or production platform in an emergency situation. A stable buoyant structure is floated and anchored in a fixed position nearby but at a safe distance from the platform. The structure is constructed to form a safe haven and is connected to the platform by an aerial cableway along which a personnel carrier is movable in either direction. Preferably the haven is in the form of a self-propelled vessel provided with a helicopter platform.
