"Time flies when you're having fun". Seven months have passed since the publication of our previous issue. During this period, a lot has happened. This issue looks back on a successful series of virtual meetings and workshop sessions, and sheds light on the next steps regarding our possible scope extension and our cooperation with API and IOGP.

We would also appreciate feedback and if you forward this Communiqué to your business relations to engage more stakeholders in our activities.

A new 1st edition of ISO 15663 ‘’Life cycle costing’’, as developed by the ISO/TC67/WG4 has been published 25 February 2021.

On Monday 12 October the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers (IOGP) and ISO/TC 67 organized two virtual workshops on contemporary opportunities for standardization in the oil and gas industry: Lower carbon and Information and standards digitalization. Mr Richard Mortimer, chair of the IOGP standards committee moderated both workshops which included a perceptive panel discussion with all presenters.

 

 

ISO/TC 67 has published the latest issue of its quarterly Communiqué. Digital transformation of standards was already a hot topic; now all standards development activities have also entered the digital arena. As can be read in the Communiqué, ISO/TC 67 continues to deliver standards needed by the oil and gas sector in close cooperation with stakeholders and good coordination with other standards bodies. Talking about transformation and oil and gas, in view of the transition towards a low carbon emission economy, ISO/TC 67 also started reviewing its scope as members share the view that the scope does not totally reflect their today’s and tomorrow’s activities. This perfectly fits to the theme of this year’s edition of World Standards Day “Protecting the Planet with standards”. ISO/TC 67 will celebrate World Standards Day on the first day of the 2-day virtual plenary meeting on 14 and 15 October 2020.

Since 2003, the oil and gas sector applies their own quality management system technical specification for suppliers: ISO/TS 29001. This specification supplements ISO 9001 that provides general requirements. The publication of ISO 9001:2015 was reason for the oil and gas sector to revise ISO/TS 29001:2010 and transform this document into an ISO standard. ISO 29001:2020 was published on 15 May 2020 and is available for implementation.

 

“Houston, we’ve got a problem”. Certainly not! ISO/TC 67 held its 39th plenary meeting in Houston on 18 and 19 September 2019, after a kind invitation from ANSI – the US member of ISO – and BP that provided the meeting facilities.

On 29 and 30 October 2019, Equinor hosted the first edition of the ‘Management system days’ in Oslo under the umbrella of the ISO working group on operating integrity management for the oil and gas sector (ISO/TC 67/WG 2). More than 60 experts took the opportunity to participate in this 2-day session.
