Abstract

As petroleum resources in the land, which are fossil fuels, become depleted, many counties started to focus on development of offshore oil and gas, and it is being reflected on investment of great funds in offshore plant industry by each country around the world for development of offshore oil and gas. However, offshore plant industry can cause a variety of risks in its development process including design of facilities, procurement, fabrication, transportation, installation and delivery, and, in case that these risks are realized, there could be enormous financial damage not only for contractor for offshore plant construction but also for ordering body, resulting from delays in construction and failure in recovery of funds invested. To defend against such risks, WELCAR 2001 was established in the form of insurance policy having standard terms and conditions by Lloyd's Syndicates at Wellington in 2001. In this study, this paper tries to review current status of offshore plant construction, the needs of insurance policy for offshore plant construction and standard insurance terms and conditions that can be applied for both property damage insurance and liability insurance and suggest the needs of development of modified offshore construction insurance policy for Korean Language policy and matters to be considered for improvement by reviewing coverage and indemnity clauses of property damage insurance policy.
