Deepwater Blowout
Intervention Workshop
NOTE: NTL 2002-N08 is available for
download in Adobe's Portable Document Format (PDF).
The Minerals Management Service (MMS) in cooperation with
the Global Petroleum Research Institute (GPRI) and the Offshore Technology Research Center
(OTRC) of Texas A&M University, announces an afternoon workshop on Deepwater Well
Intervention on August 15, 2002, in Houston Texas. The workshop provides an opportunity to
hear from the project managers of the Texas A&M Deepwater Well Intervention Joint
Venture.
The project is a GPRI joint venture, funded in part by MMS through OTRC, to develop new
guidelines for blowout containment in deepwater drilling/completion/workover operations.
The project is intended to develop more relevant procedures and practices for blowout
containment than is currently available. MMS believes that this research project will help
in understanding what may occur in the event of a deepwater blowout and could provide
possible solutions for containing a deepwater blowout. We welcome and encourage your
participation in this workshop.
