Norweign Escape Chute
Norwegian Escape Chute is a means of escape from an offshore installation.
Escape chutes can be fitted to offshore oil and gas installations to permit rapid, mass evacuation from a high structure during a life-threatening emergency.
The escape chute provides a direct descent to sea level if the primary evacuation arrangements such as a helicopter should fail.
