Asbestos Offshore: A brief guide (link)

Offshore installations built before 1999 can contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). The older the installation the more likely that the higher risk materials such as lagging and boarding will be present. Other ACMs liable to be found offshore include: external sheeting, brake linings, arc shields for electrical switchgear, and gaskets.
