Safety & Environmental Management Program (SEMP)

API RP75 Implementation Survey
  
Summaries for 1994-1998

The MMS announced in 1994 that API's RP75 generally reflected our view of what a Safety and Environmental Management Program (SEMP) should contain. The MMS collaborated with the API, IPAA, and OOC for the next three years to survey if, and to what extent, OCS operators had voluntarily implemented RP75.

At the end of each calendar year, identical surveys were sent to every OCS operator having production during that year. Operators were asked to gauge on a six-point scale the degree to which they had implemented each element of RP75. The response from individual operators is kept confidential by using a third-party reporting scheme to encourage honest reporting.
