• Status: Today

• Challenges

• Statoil strategy

• Way forward?

• ISO legal issues

2014-02-10 2 Classification: Open

Status: Historic

• NORSOK subsea standards

• Good cooperation between API and ISO (one family since mid 90s)

• Cobranding of standards

• The cooperation ensured that task forces were above critical mass

• The cooperation ensured equal ground between north sea experiences and GOM

experiences

Status: Today

• No formal cooperation between API and ISO

• Most ISO work groups are below critical mass

• Full stop within ISO for more than two years due to legal issues

• High activity within API

2014-02-10 6 Classification: Open

2014-02-10 7 Classification: Open

2014-02-10 8 Classification: Open

Challenges

• Still challenged by embargo

• Motivation has eroded amongst doers within the ISO family

• API develops new standards while no progress within ISO

− Different global standards

− More difficult to promote north sea experience in the standardisation

development work

2014-02-10 9 Classification: Open

2014-02-10 10 Classification: Open

Statoil strategy

• Increase activity within API environment

− Use local employees

• Include critical issues not accepted by API in NORSOK U-001

• Contribute to find a good permanent solution wrt ISO/API

2014-02-10 11 Classification: Open

Challenge:

• Describe required critical properties that need

considerationb in different applications

• Describe application in order to perform system

engineering

The Resource Challenge and Focus areas

• Subsea production is an essential option for field development on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS)

• Subsea suppliers are fully committed now, and projections indicate an increasing gap between Operator demand and the Industry’s ability to supply

• This may lead to increases in commercial risk and the possible delay or postponement of projects

Focus Areas Selected

1. Unified Specifications and QA/QC for subsea forgings

2. Subsea component catalogue with configurable solutions

3. Universal Workover systems

4. Brownfield subsea re-engineering

5. Standardized subsea documentation

6. Compliance with established equipment standards

Way forward?

• Contribute to industrialisation

• «There are no standard products today»

• High volume gives lower price and predictable quality

− Company standardisation cannot generally give high enough volume

− Operators and suppliers need to cooperate to form industrialised products

• Standardised materials

• Standardised functional requirements with standard performance

requirements

• Standardised system interfaces

• Standardised documentation

• Standardised test requirements

• Standardised witness points

2014-02-10 16 Classification: Open

ISO legal issues

• Embargo

• Intellectual properties

API - OGP Int’l Standards Task Force

Purpose:

Develop a process for the continued development of globally accepted standards for the oil and gas industry, given the current US and EU trade sanctions environment

Scope of Effort: Defining the process of initiation, drafting, balloting/comment

resolution, publication and revision of standards pertaining to oil and gas equipment, materials and management systems

Deliverables: Recommended process for standards development, including

roles of API and OGP, that complies with the terms of reference

API - OGP Int’l Standards Task Force

Terms of Reference established by the API Executive Committee

and OGP Management Committee:

Need for a single set of industry standards to avoid duplication, with the

potential for more than one brand;

Need for the standards to be globally acceptable and widely used;

Need for the standards to be accepted by the regulatory community;

A standards setting process as the foundation for the single set of industry standards that builds on the existing API/OGP infrastructure and allows for increased international participation, and

Need to ensure a legally compliant process

API-OGP Int’l Standards Task Force Activities:

The Task Force has developed a solution that provides a process for developing international standards

Solution includes front end coordination and multiple standards development work streams, including:

• ISO

• OGP/ISO

• API

The solution will also accommodate both ISO and API developing stand-alone standards when appropriate

Response needed from OFAC to finalize interface between API and ISO

The Task Force agreed to the formation of a committee to ensure high level facilitation between stakeholders to avoid duplication and have the largest possible audience among the global expert community
