INTRODUCTIONThe questionnaire is intended to assist auditors by illustrating the potential scope to be covered in the auditing process. The questionnaire is not intended as a script for the audit process and interviews, nor is it intended that each and every question should be used. It suggests generic lines of enquiry and requires to be tailored down to suit the terms of reference for the specific organisation, activity or facility to be audited.The questions are grouped such that they cover distinct topics applicable within the context of each chapter with an element of prioritisation i.e. high level questions are given first where possible. Within each group of questions covering a distinct topic, there are a number of indented subsidiary questions as follows:The main question

· A subsidiary question of the main question- A subsidiary question of above.

If a main question is a dead end it does not automatically follow that subsidiary questions are dead ends as well.

In preparing for auditing the specific topic and developing the structure for conducting audit interviews with selected staff, the auditor should:· Review the section of the questionnaire to obtain an overview of relevance

within the context of the topic audited.· Select the areas most relevant to the person he is going to interview. · Identify the most important questions to ask whilst realising the

appropriateness in the context of relative organisational level of the interviewee.

· Convert generic questions to questions which are specific to the facility or activity audited.

· Add other questions which are not given in the questionnaire .

'HSE' in questionnaires means 'Health, Safety and Environment', not just 'Safety': the auditor should make sure that all 3 fields are adequately coveredThe questionnaire is available in Word for Window format on IBM-PC 5.25" or 3.25" diskette.Audit questions are aligned to EP-95000 Volume 1-3. Volume 1 questions (HSE Management System) are common to all audits.

4.1.10 Simultaneous (concurrent) operations All supervisors involved in simultaneous ops. should meet daily to identify and resolve any potential overlap of operations and responsibilities. A fundamental rule for SIMOPS is to classify all operations as either hazardous or non hazardous and only allow one hazardous operation to occur at any one time. Single point responsibility is essential. All supervisors controlling discreet operations must report and liaise through the single point. The (head) of simultaneous ops. must be trained/competent to be able to make sound decisions.Management inspections should be carried out jointly by platform/rig based supervisors.Plan directional drilling logically.(high angle wells from outer slots) to minimise risks and make well paths uncomplicated. Have a well defined cone of uncertainty and a consequential well shut in policy. The essential issues are included in the following questions.
