Description / Abstract:
This Technical Specification provides requirements and methods
to the oil and gas industry to manage well integrity during the
well operational phase.
The operational phase is considered to extend from handover of
the well after construction, to handover prior to abandonment. This
represents only the period during the life cycle of the well when
it is being operated and is illustrated in Figure 1.
The scope of the Technical Specification includes:
- A description of the processes required to assess and manage
risk within a defined framework. The risk assessment process also
applies when deviating from this Technical Specification.
- The process of managing well integrity by operating wells in
compliance with operating limits for all well types that are
defined based on exposure of risk to people, environment, assets
and reputation. The management of well integrity is supported by
associated maintenance/monitoring plans, technical reviews and the
management of change.
- The assessment of existing assets (wells / fields) in order to
start the process of Well Integrity Management in accordance with
this technical specification.
- The handover process required when changing from one activity
to another during the operational phase.
The scope of the Technical Specification applies to all wells
that are utilized by the oil and gas industry, regardless of their
age, type or location.
The scope of the Technical Specification does NOT apply to:
- The periods during well intervention or work-over activities
but it DOES include the result of the intervention and any impact
that this can have to the well envelope and the associated well
barriers.
- The equipment that is required or used outside the well
envelope for a well intervention such as wire-line or coiled tubing
or a pumping package.
