Update on International Standards Activities Presentation to International Regulators’ Forum by Neil Reeve Shell International Exploration and Production representing the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers Standards Committee 12 October 2000
ISO/TC67 VISION Global Standards Used Locally Worldwide
CONTENTS • Introduction • Why industry move to ISO? • ISO/TC67 and its work programme • ISO/TC67 is delivering • Interest from IRF? • Conclusions/Discussion
OGP • The International Association of Oil and Gas Producers (upstream) http://www.ogp.org.uk/ • “E&P Forum” founded 1974, based in London, UK • Membership • ~50: oil and gas companies, and national associations, from 18 countries • members operate in more than 60 countries • Main Aims • to represent the interests of the oil companies directly to international agencies seeking to regulate exploration and production activities • to work for balanced regulation and to promote consistent standards • to solve technical problems, for safety and environmental authorities • Standing Committees • Standards Committee
COMPANY BENEFITS FROM STANDARDS • Cost Reduction - Increase Business Efficiency • Simplify design and procurement; Variety Control • Interchangeability of equipment • Promote stable and global market • Enhance Technical Integrity • Safety, Health and protection of the Environment • Maximise availability, minimise lost revenue • Establish a Common Technology Base • Technology transfer / Sharing best practice • Support Legislation where linked • Safety and Environmental Regulations (e.g. Process Safety Management, US) • Procurement Legislation (e.g. European Directives) • Essential Requirements (e.g. ‘New Approach’ European Directives)
COMPANY POLICY TO WIN THE BENEFITS • Maximize use of common industry standards (International if possible) • Minimize additional company requirements • Ensure variations justified (technical and commercial) • Ensure continuous improvement (feedback from users to standardisers) • Influence external standards bodies • Participate actively in the technical committees and working groups of key external standards The benefits are maximised when all companies use the same common industry standards

INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS ISO/TC67 ISO/TC67: Materials, Equipment and Offshore Structures for Petroleum and Natural Gas Industries • Re-activated in 1988 • Secretariat: United States: ANSI (API) • Chairman: United States: (C. Stark, BP) • 72 API standards offered in 1988, to become ISO standards • 20 P-Members, 22 O-Members • 7 SCs, 47 WGs • Liaisons with 17 other ISO TCs, CEN/TC12, OGP • 130 standards on 2000 work programme
EXTERNAL STANDARDS - HISTORY • 1923 API established • 1947 ISO established • 1961 CEN established • 1970’s/1980’s North Sea developments - no emphasis on international standards • 1987 European “Utilities” Draft Directive • 1988 ISO/TC 67 reactivated - API offer 72 standards • 1991 Vienna Agreement ISO-CEN • 1993 CEN/TC 12 reactivated - 71 work items. CRINE and NORSOK. API Global Policy • 1993/1994 ISO/TC67 published first 17 “fast-track” standards • 1999/2000 Focus on ISO/TC 67. 130 work items (standards)
ISO/TC67 STATEMENTS Mission: To create value-added standards for the oil and natural gas industry Vision: Global standards used locally worldwide Goals: • Prepare standards required by this industry • Prepare standards that could be adopted worldwide by bodies such as API and CEN • Publish standards that enable companies to minimize their specifications • Deliver standards to the target dates on the agreed work programme

Comments on MMS slide “Current Regulatory Systems” • Different government regulations can lead to difficulties • Support MMS inclusion of ISO 10432 (Subsurface safety valves) into regulations • Under “others” assume that IMO etc are the examples • Support model of concentrating on “International Standards” in preference to national or regional, where these meet the local technical need Goal is to reduce words in text of Government Regulations and reference International (industry) Standards where possible. (Recognize NPD have reduced document size from 1500 pages to 200 pages)
Comments on MMS slide “Proposal” - Slide 1 of 4 (Main arrow pointing down/left) • Full support to concept of determining common standards (equipment specifications and recommended practices) currently in regulations and developing these in ISO/TC 67 with input from IRF and using resulting ISO as reference in individual government regulations, where required • Industry would like to see the box “Unique to Regulator” minimized Benefits: Shorter regulations, clearer regulations, more common regulations
Comments on MMS slide “Proposal” - Slide 2 of 4 (Main arrow pointing up/right) • Concept of determining common Regulations/Guidelines (Plans, Permits, Procedures) currently in regulations and developing these in ISO/TC67 with input from IRF is also supported, but seen as more difficult • Examples of topics: - Permit to work procedures - should be possible. - Procedures for licensing acreage - difficult - Permit to Develop and Operate - difficult • Is ISO/TC67 correct place? Benefits: Harmonization would be useful
Comments on MMS slide “Proposal” - Slide 3 of 4 Risk • ISO Standards are voluntary (until adopted by contract or Government Regulation) • Bringing ISO/TC67 closer into regulations could “turn-off” industry input into “consensus” process • Hence need to ensure that majority of references are still some form of “guidance” unless they need to be mandated. Similar to European Standards (CEN) supporting “Essential Requirements” of “European New Approach Directives” • To date none of the ISO/TC67 standards will be adopted into European legislation via CEN for this purpose. This is a good position from which to motivate participation in ISO
Comments on MMS slide “Proposal” - Slide 4 of 4 Conclusion • Full support for proposal with regard to common Standards for Equipment Specifications and Recommended Practices • Measured support for proposal with regards to Common Standards for Regulations/Guidelines (Plans, Permits, Procedures)
