This report and the appendices that accompany it describe the development, implementation, and results from the 1996-1997 OCS Performance Measures survey. This survey is the product of a two-year collaborative effort between the OCS industry and the MMS to develop a widely-used set of consistently-defined safety and environmental performance measures. This effort was initiated by the MMS, but was quickly agreed to by the major trade associations for the OCS oil and gas industry. Both the MMS and OCS industry recognized that credible and replicable data describing the bottom-line performance of the industry was badly needed. These OCS Performance Measures, and the process used to develop and implement them, are the products of consensus derived from a joint work group formed by the MMS and OCS industry. |
