Decommissioning & Abandonment GOM 2022 Draft Agenda

D&A GOM 2022 Draft Agenda

Focus -Reduce decommissioning liability with an optimized abandonment plan that offers the most effective project execution and navigates the changing regulatory landscape

Session One - Market Overview & Forecast

  • Drivers in the industry – Review why operators are accelerating decommissioning and P&A activities to identify the magnitude of your well stock that require reviewing.
  • Market factors that impact Decommissioning and P&A – Understand how external occurrences within operations such as boomerang assets or lease sales can have a knock on effect on decommissioning and P&A activities.
  • Knowledge gaps –Analyse the impact of internal knowledge gaps on the planning of decommissioning and P&A projects to understand how digitizing data can aid in overcoming the challenge

Session Two – Regulatory Clarity & Boomerang Assets

  • Hoactzin Partners L.P. Bankruptcy – Explore in depth the Hoactzin bankruptcy & it’s decommissioning resolution by “Contingent Turnkey” Contractwhile understanding the typical problems involved in order to move closer to a win-win solution for producer & contractor.
  • Legalities of boomerang assets – Understand the conditions which make an operator liable for the decommissioning of assets and explore how turnkey contracts can be used and structured to best mitigate risks from boomerang assets.
  • Regulatory Guidance -Gain clarity on the current decommissioning and P&A regulations to ensure your scheduling the necessary projects to remain compliant

Session Three – Project Planningfor Decommissioning Projects

  • Project planning from operators to suppliers – Understand that factors go into planning for decommissioning and P&A from a service company perspective and realizingwhat operators expect when collaborating on a project.
  • Time constraints and planning – Consider how the planning of decommissioning campaigns affects campaign costs and how efficient planning can aid in eradicating costly problems that may arise.
  • Deepwater decommissioning VS shallow water decommissioning– Identify the key differences between planning for a deepwaterdecommissioning project compared to a shallow water decommissioning project, to ensure you are following the latest best practices.

Session Four – Adaptation & Technology

  • Adaptation of existing equipment – Learn how you can modify underutilised assets for your decommissioning and P&A projects to reduce costs and save time.
  • Multiple use cases – Identify which technologies can be used for multiple purposes within decommissioning projects to streamline operations.
  • Learning new technologies – Explore which technologies are being used around the world to understand how they can be utilised in the Gulf of Mexico to increase efficiency.

Session Five – Project Case Studies

  • Technical Case Study – Access a technical use case detailing the management of annulus pressure and casing integrity when executing a decommissioning campaign in the GOM.
  • Strategic Case Study -Hear an exclusive case study on the detailed planning of a P&A campaign in the GOM to understand key economic, equipment and operating factors that need to be considered
  • Technology Case Study – Investigate where technology has streamlined decommissioning and P&A operations to understand where the current technology gaps are within the region
