A Strategic Solution for Compliance of New US Regulations

J. Connor Consulting Inc., Add Energy Group AS and Trendsetter Engineering Inc. have formed a strategic alliance (JAT Alliance) designed to deliver a comprehensive spectrum of services which will enable Operators in the Gulf of Mexico to comply with new, more stringent regulations which recently came into effect.

Changes to Regulations: In response to the Deepwater Horizon incident, the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) is implementing additional well control regulations to ensure safe and responsible offshore oil and gas development. GoM operators must now comply with an extensive and detailed list of new measures including more rigorous design requirements and operational procedures for critical well control equipment.

As a result of these changes, many operators do not have the resources to comply and manage all the changes required. In recognizing this, the JAT Alliance has been designed to assist operators with the additional workload and ensure compliance with BSEE regulations. Together, the experience and expertise of our newly formed alliance offers a much stronger, more experienced, and broader professional team delivering solutions for a comprehensive package that satisfies the demands of the latest regulatory requirements.
