5. ISO/TC 67 statements Mission: Vision: Goals:
To create value-added standards for the oil and natural gas industry
Vision:
Global standards used locally worldwide
Goals:
Prepare standards required by this industry
Prepare standards that could be adopted worldwide by bodies such as API and CEN
Publish standards that enable companies to minimize their specifications
Deliver standards to the target dates on the agreed work programme
A Single Set of Words:
if CEN, API BS etc. need to adopt a standard on the subject, it should be the ISO Standard so that the same requirements are common
ISO-CEN say “Do it once, do it right, do it Internationally”
API say “Do it once, do it right, do it globally”
Everything is in place and the main organisations are aligned. Now the ISO system must deliver.
Kazan - Sept 2009

6. Follow these industry standards
ISO TC67 has published 135+ standards.
API has adopted 65+ of these as joint API / ISO standards.
CEN has adopted 115+ of these as joint European EN ISO standards.
China, Gulf Region, India, Kazakhstan etc. have also adopted many of these ISO standards.
Follow these industry standards

7. ISO/TC 67 accomplishments: Cumulative number of documents published
Note: excluding “fasttrack”ISOs

8. OGP position on standards
OGP strongly supports the internationalisation of key standards.
OGP’s position on standards includes:
Promote development and use of ISO and IEC International Standards.
Ensure standards are simple and fit for purpose.
Use International Standards without modification wherever possible.
Available resources should be used efficiently, avoiding duplication of effort.
Company specifications should be minimised.
Promote “users” on stardards work groups.
The adoption of this approach is expected to minimise barriers to trade, enable more efficient worldwide operations, and improve the technical integrity of equipment, materials, and offshore structures used by the petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries.
For full position, see International Association of Oil & Gas Producers, (OGP) report No. 381, April 2007.
The adoption of this approach is expected to minimise barriers to trade, enable more efficient worldwide operations, and improve the technical integrity of equipment, materials, and offshore structures used by the Petroleum, Petrochemical and Natural Gas Industries.

11. Changes in Market Essentials remain the same, but…
World financial climate
Increasing globalisation of markets (import/export)
Downsizing/sharpening projects
Increasing need for good, up to date, globally relevant technical standards
Towards:
“1 standard, 1 test, accepted everywhere”

22. Conclusion and way forward
ISO/TC67 has a solid portfolio of standards for equipment for our industry.
Other international standards committees, also.
They are developed by experts from oil companies, manufacturers, certification bodies and regulators from all over the world.
Increasingly, they are used by companies and accepted by regulators around the world.
“For cooperation, not competition”.
The increasing Russian Federation presence is welcomed.
