Standards and guidelines for well

integrity and well control

Introduction

This reference list includes guidelines, standards and other documents,

produced by both IOGP and other organisations, which influence practices,
equipment selection and equipment specification related to maintaining well
control and well integrity. IOGP recognizes that different end users will use listed
references in different ways. To that end, this list has been prepared from the
viewpoint of aiding Operating Companies. IOGP recognizes that in recent times
API and ISO have agreed to de-brand joint publications. IOGP does not advocate a
preference for one over the other, but for simplicity has referenced the document
numbers of both institutions but left the document name to that of ISO.

API = American Petroleum Institute

ISO = International Organization for Standardization
EI = Energy Institute
IADC = International Association of Drilling Contractors
NOG = Norway Oil and Gas
OGUK = Oil and Gas UK
