New guidance aids decommissioning planning
Monday 8 January 2018
An industry workgroup has issued new guidance that will help companies plan decommissioning more efficiently.
Common Data Access (CDA) – the Oil & Gas UK subsidiary that provides shared services for the management of UKCS well and seismic data – has worked with the Shell Brent Decommissioning Project and the School of Law at the University of Aberdeen to create the first publicly available ‘records retention schedule’ for use in oil and gas decommissioning, helping operators determine what information must be retained after an offshore installation has been removed from the field.
