Decommissioning WGEI 2nd meeting, Oslo, September 2015

Decommissioning – Where does it start? Preserving nature for a sustainable future Legislation License agreements Community commitments Financial intent Environmental management Financial provisioning Guaranteed funds

Decommissioning of offshore facilities 3 Seismic surveys Opening of new areas Award of licences Field development Field operation Decommmissioning

4 Legal background for decommissioning in Norway Act of 29 November 1996 No. 72 pertaining to petroleum activities (Petroleum Act), chapter 5 Regulations to the Petroleum Act, laid down by Royal Decree 27 June 1997 (Petroleum Regulations), chapter 6 OSPAR convention, decision 98/3 and IMO convention, 2009 Norwegian Pollution Act § 20

Legal background cont. Licensees have to submit a cessation plan to the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy (MPE), 5 to 2 years before the production licence expires or the use of a facility is permanently terminated. A cessation plan shall include i.a.: proposals for continued production or shutdown relevant disposal alternatives with impact assessment recommended solution time schedule Disposal alternatives: further use in petroleum activities, other uses, complete or part removal or abandonment. 5

The Norwegian experience In 2015 over 500 facilities in operation on the Norwegian continental shelf (subsea and different types of platforms) Up to date 13 cessation plans approved Significant increase in decommissioning activities to be expected as technical end of life will be reached/not prolonged or production terminated for economical reasons Cost for decommissioning of current facilities estimated by operators to NOK 170 billion (appr. USD 21 billion) 78 per cent of this cost covered indirectely through tax deductions by the Norwegian state 6

Potential decommissioning risks Safety and environmental security risk due to facilities awaiting offshore removal, during transport and on-shore decommissioning wells awaiting permanent plugging Does regulatory oversight by relevant authorities ensure adequate execution of disposal decision? 7

8 Examples of decommissioned facilities Frigg Industrial Heritage Source: NPD Ekofisk Industrial Heritage n=3&iMax=30&iContentMenuRootId=1001

Potential decommissioning risks cont. Financial risk for the state: Are licensees’ financial provisions sufficient to cover their decommissioning costs and liabilities? How do authorities ensure that operators’ estimates are realistic and thus made provisions sufficient? Even if owners are subsidiarily liable, how do authorities ensure that provisions are sufficent, e.g. in case of transfer(s) of licences? Do authorities ask for guarantees? 9

The South African experience 10

Performance audit of the rehabilitation of abandoned mines

Background: Department of Mineral Resources Responsible for formulating and implementing mining-related policies Regulates mining industry: - Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act 2006: contracted Council for Geo-Science to develop national strategy: development and population of database of abandoned mines in South Africa ranking of mines within database i.t.o. potential impact abandoned mines estimated cost of rehabilitation => R30 billion (USD2.3 billion) High risk mines => R28.5 billion (USD2.2 billion)

Findings on audit of abandoned mines What was the department NOT doing? Problem statement: Does the rehabilitation process for abandoned mines ensure timely, cost effective identification and rehabilitation of abandoned mines to ensure that the social and environmental impact is limited? No approved strategy or plan Unavailability of information to target high risk mines Organisational structure not supportive Communication channels not defined or structured Poor project management and budget allocation

Discussion Risk assessment in other countries How can SAIs contribute to reduce risks related to decommissioning? 14
