The Offshore Infrastructure Regulator is a function of the National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority (NOPSEMA), and came into being with the passing of the Offshore Electricity Infrastructure Act 2021 (OEI Act) on 2 June 2022. The Act's framework provides a licensing scheme to enable the construction, operation and decommissioning of offshore renewable energy and offshore electricity infrastructure projects in Commonwealth waters. Under the framework the OIR has responsibility for overseeing work health and safety, environmental management, infrastructure integrity and financial security for offshore infrastructure activities. A key focus will be providing guidance and advice to stakeholders on how to comply with regulatory requirements. The OIR provides specialist technical advice to the Department of Climate Change, Energy, and the Environment and Water to support the assessment of offshore renewable energy proposals under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999.
