Definition challenges !
• API Shall = As used in a recommended practice, “shall” denotes a minimum requirement in order to conform to the RP.
• API Should = As used in a recommended practice, “should” denotes a recommendation or that which is advised but not required in order to conform to the RP.
• ISO Shall = used to indicate requirements strictly to be followed in order to conform to the document and from which no deviation is permitted.
• ISO Should = used to indicate that among several possibilities one is recommended as particularly suitable (abbreviated).
• ISO Must = Do not use “must” as an alternative for “shall”.
• PSA Shall = conveys a requirement of law or regulations or the authorities’ interpretation of requirements that allow for no other solutions.
• PSA Should = means the authorities’ recommended manner of fulfilling the function requirement. Alternative solutions with documented equivalent functionality and quality can be employed.
• BOEMRE: The terms should and shall mean must!

Main findings
• 1.348 references in total.
• From more than 60 organisations.
• 1.142 of these are to different titles.
• Only 13% referenced by two or more regulators.
• Industry 44%, national 35% and international standards referenced 21%.
• Most regulators use undated references to standards.
• Referenced standards appear to be voluntary in most of the regulatory regimes, i.e. alternative references may be used.

Survey conclusion
• Regulators make good use of standards!
• Little harmonization by regulators in their use of standards.
• Diversity of references provides additional work for global operators.
• A majority of reference standards are from US.
• Duplication of standards.
• References to international standards have increased compared to earlier analysis.

Proposals
• Encourage regulators to participate actively in international standards work.
• Regulators to make proposals for revisions or new standards when deemed necessary.
• Encourage regulators to make references to more globally relevant standards.
• Make IRF list of jointly preferred reference standards.
• Undated references will allow quicker adoption of latest technology.
• Agree “shall” and “should” definitions.
• IRF should liaise with ISO/TC67.

Following the conference, IRF members met and approved a strategic agenda focusing on the following topics:
• Safety culture and leadership
• BOP integrity and operational issues
• Performance indicators
• Operator competency/capacity criteria
• Use of standards and industry best practice.

Concluding presentation proposals
1. Support the ISO (and IEC) standards system
2. Create a standing IRF “standards” sub-group - set clear priorities, monitor progress
- engage with standards committees
- influence standards management to meet IRF needs
3. Develop questionnaire for IRF members (standards usage)
4. Consider response to OGP Report “Regulators’ use of standards”; and consider making “list”
5. Distinguish roles on “Good practice” and “Best practice”

IRF Members’ Resolutions Stavanger 2011
• IRF committed to supporting the ISO standards system (and IEC for electrical issues) as the principal system for offshore regulators to support in order to achieve globally agreed offshore standards.
• However, IRF recognised the crucial role that relevant national and regional standards would continue to play whilst no equivalent ISO standards existed.
