The government needs to determine an acceptable level of risk for offshore operations that is consistent with national policy. For the purpose of its work, the panel assumed that the acceptable level of risk for offshore operations is zero accidents, zero deaths, and zero oil spills--though this goal may not be attainable. The panel realizes that neither the law nor any government regulation can prevent all possible accidents or malfunctions in complex systems such as offshore oil and gas production facilities. While it is an incontrovertible fact that offshore oil and gas production equipment has earned a remarkable record for safety in the past 25 years, human performance has often been attributed as a cause of failures and mishaps. The BAST requirement is limited to technologies on the OCS and is not designed to mitigate human errors. This leads to the second issue, which is the problem of calculating incremental benefits and costs related to obtaining a desired level of risk. These problems are discussed in detail in the report.

This book addresses the international legal dimension of the management of the risk of accidents associated with offshore oil and gas activities. It focuses on the prevention and minimization of harm as well as the post-accident management of loss through liability and compensation arrangements and the processing of mass claims for compensation. Government officials of countries with offshore industries, international civil servants and academics in related fields will find the book a valuable resource.

Commercially significant amounts of crude oil and natural gas lie under the continental shelf of the United States. Advances in locating deposits, and improvements in drilling and recovery technology, have made it technically and economically feasible to extract these resources under harsh conditions. But extracting these offshore petroleum resources involves the possibility, however remote, of oil spills, with resulting damage to the ocean and the coastline ecosystems and risks to life and limb of those performing the extraction. The environmental consequences of an oil spill can be more severe underwater than on land because sea currents can quickly disperse the oil over a large area and, thus, cleanup can be problematic. Bolted connections are an integral feature of deep-water well operations. High-Performance Bolting Technology for Offshore Oil and Natural Gas Operations summarizes strategies for improving the reliability of fasteners used in offshore oil exploration equipment, as well as best practices from other industrial sectors. It focuses on critical boltingâ€"bolts, studs, nuts, and fasteners used on critical connections.
