OSPRAG Summit
- UK Oil Spill Prevention and Response

Wednesday 21 September 2011

Since May 2010 following the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, the Oil Spill Prevention and Response Advisory Group (OSPRAG) has led the UK oil and gas industry’s effort to ensure that its drilling practices and procedures are robust and remain fit for purpose. While the industry, regulators and trade unions are confident in the ability of current regulations and procedures to prevent major well control incidents, OSPRAG has made great strides in identifying where improvements can be made and implementing them.

Oil & Gas UK’s OSPRAG Summit provides delegates with the opportunity to find out from experts about the range of projects undertaken to bolster the industry’s prevention of blowouts and in the unlikely event that such an incident occurs, the sector’s response to it.
