In the event of a UMGV or FWV failure, continue to flow only if UMGV or FWV Guidance
(whichever hasNotes & Definitions
not failed) is leaktight and actuated. If remaining actuated valve is not leaktight, shut in well until failed valve
A is repaired.
B Additional barrier (auxilliary SWAB for LMGV or SWAB failure or lo-torq valve for KWV failure) shall be fitted to provide suitable barriers for well entry work.
SSF 9 assumes that two annulus valves (and VR plug to gas lift annuli) are fitted to 'A' annuli. If this is not the case and a subsequent failure occurs, MSF 10 applies. Multiple annulus valve/VR plug failure

F The ability of gas lift valves to seal is only routinely evaluated over long periods for subsea wells when the well is shut in for operational reasons.

N In the event of an action code 9, making the well safe would normally involve shutting the well in unless it can be demonstrated that this would increase the risk. If it has been decided to continue to flow
the well for a short period until the remedial work can be carried out, the TA2 shall be consulted and a deviation raised as soon as practicable.

Notes

1 Within SAP, SCEs will be identified at individual FLOC level. All other elements will come under FLOC of Well.

2 When determining SCEs, safety and environmental risks were considered.

3 Well boundary
Within taken as wells
SCE Guidelines, reservoir to FWV
fall under outletcategories,
2 SCE flange. PS008 - Well Containment and SD004 - Well Isolation. Induvidual elements above have 'C' or 'I' in each box to
indicate in which category this element has been classed. This is for information purposes to assist in the decision making process as to whether an element is Safety Critical
4 or not.
For downhole safety device, a valve (SSSV, ICV, storm choke, etc.) is considered to be an 'Isolation' SCE and a plug (mechanical or cement) is considered to be a
5 'Containment' SCE.

Introduction of WFM into UK Standard.

Addition of the following:


SSF 8 - Inclusion of VR plug failure on non artificially lifted annuli (Nelson B & C annuli) - similar to outlet valve
failure.
SSF 10 - Added reference to Dual Packer failure - similar risk to ASV failure.
SSSF9 & 10 - Combined failures and removed reference to ALR. Set to AC8 to promote correct review on a well
by well basis.
MSSF 6 - Amended AC from 9 to 8 as a result of recent Reviews in Brent and Mature where it was felt that
certain specific situations can be reduced to an AC 1.
Note N - Due to amendment of SSSF9 & 10, reference to 'approved engineered solution' is not required as this
was initially included to cope with Shearwater APC system. This can now be handled by Tech Rev.
RAM Classification - Mapping removed from Action Code section.
Checked and ammend RPN (line 43 WFM) - Peter Winkelmolen
