Drilling Audit Questionnaire Rev.A

Page 1

INTRODUCTION
The 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 covered
The 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.

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.
How is the interface between rig and the overall facility managed?

Are daily ops. meetings held, who attends, are they minuted?

Drilling Audit Questionnaire Rev.A

SERVICE CONTRACTORS

A significant proportion of well operations are carried out by service contractors and
attention to service company personnel and services forms a necessary part of the
audit process. The main problem areas are to be found in compliance with Company
standards specified in the contract . Also lifting equipment used by service contractors
is not included in the drilling contractor's inspection system, and separate
documentation of inspection and NDT testing is therefore required. Particular
attention should given to the suitability of equipment for use in hazardous Zone 1 and
2 areas along with possible sour service application.
Look for the extent to which service contractor personnel are integrated with the
drilling contractor's safety systems. All rig site personnel should participate in safety
meetings, drills and take full part in the site-specific HSE programme.

each category will provide audit input to specific topics related to his/her job
description and responsibilities. Listed below are staff and crew with issues which
should be addressed during the interview, not necessarily all topics for each individual
in one interview; possibly as follow up from previous interviews.
Interviews are not necessarily listed in sequence of interview priority, as this will
frequently depend on availability of the interviewee and the priority of ongoing
operations.
There is common information which should be collected from all individuals
interviewed, which if recorded can greatly assist in forming an overall picture of
staffing levels, competency, HSE training and experience levels. A sample interview
