TAP-611-JIP for the Development of Standardized Testing Requirements for HPHT Equipment

This project was designed to address the Minerals Management Service's Notice to Leasees (NTL) 2007-G07 that mandates that requests for approvals to conduct drilling and workover operations under HPHT conditions contain a discussion of how the applicant has determined that equipment exposed to HPHT is fit for service. Stress Engineering Services is serving as facilitator for this JIP comprised of leading industry HPHT experts from at least 12 companies. The results will be submitted to MMS and the API RP 6HP committee for consideration as the design validation testing requirement for HPHT drilling and completion equipment.
