1.1 PURPOSE
The Drilling Engineering Manual (DEM) is on the second level in a hierarchical system of
manuals which documents the Drilling Management System. The first level document is
the Drilling Management Manual (DMM), the documents on the third level are the Well
Design Manual (WDM) and the Drilling Operations Manual (DOM).
The purpose of the Drilling Engineering Manual is to:
• Provide detailed mapping of the driver and support processes performed by Drilling
during the process management cycle. This cycle results in the planning and
scheduling, implementation, analysis and improvement stages of Drilling activities.
• Illustrate the individual activities and tasks which form part of the processes.
• Detail the interfaces with other processes.
• Illustrate the activity flows, interfaces, responsibilities and routines undertaken to
ensure optimised performance of the processes.
• Provide timings for the tasks to ensure efficiency of the process.
• Emphasise the importance of performance monitoring, analysis, improvement and
feedback. Document the embedding of these activities into the routine conduct of all
processes, activities and tasks.
Non-core activities, such as administrative duties, are not covered in this document.
However, it is important that the closed-loop quality management system is applied to all
activities undertaken by Drilling personnel.

1.2 SCOPE
The contents of this manual shall be applied by all Drilling personnel for drilling activities
in Malaysia.
This manual describes the processes and tasks, not the detailed engineering considerations
and procedures. These are described in the following documents:
! Well Design Manual.
! Drilling Operations Manual.

1.3 DRILLING ENGINEERING MANUAL STRUCTURE

The manual is structured in the following chapters:
Chapter 1 Introduces the manual, explains its purpose and scope, how to use it
Overview of the and how it will be updated.
Manual

"
Chapter 2 Describes the well planning processes and the associated activities.
Planning and These cover the early stages prior to conceptual design through to
Scheduling the approved Notice of Operation. (For detailed engineering
considerations and procedures refer to the Well Design Manual).
"
Chapter 3 Covers the execution of the plan and the interfaces between field
Implementation operations and office based control activities. (For detailed
operational considerations and procedures refer to the Drilling
Operations Manual).
"
Chapter 4 Describes the examination of data reported during the planning and
Analysis implementation stages.

"
Chapter 5 Describes the feedback loop that identifies, evaluates and
Improvement implements improvements to processes and documentation.
