What is SEMP?
The SEMP combines a variety offshore operating programs into a single, integrated,
flexible, always-improving management scheme. The SEMP is a voluntary complement to
compliance with the MMS operating regulations. An OCS operator's SEMP specifies how
to:
 |
Operate and maintain
facility equipment;
|
 |
Identify and mitigate safety
and environmental hazards;
|
 |
Change operating equipment,
processes, and personnel;
|
 |
Respond to and investigate
accidents, upsets, and "near misses;"
|
 |
Purchase equipment and
supplies;
|
 |
Work with contractors;
|
 |
Train personnel; and
|
 |
Review the SEMP to ensure it
works and make it better.

The American Petroleum
Institute (API) has
created Recommended Practices
for Development of a Safety and Environmental Management Plan for OCS Operations and
Facilities (RP75). The RP75
is industry's response to the MMS call for SEMP. It is a detailed guide for building
a SEMP. Cooperation among the API, the
Offshore Operator's Committee, MMS, and others
resulted in RP75. From the MMS perspective, doing RP75 is doing SEMP.
