list of citations, No. 20 to add text to
reflect § 250.730(a), and No. 36 to
revise/edit text in (J) to be more general
and (M) to be more clear on what we are
requesting.
The BSEE uses the information to
ensure safe well control, completion,
workover, and decommissioning
operations and to protect the human,
marine, and coastal environment.
Among other things, BSEE specifically
uses the information to ensure: The well
control, completion, workover, and
decommissioning unit (drilling/well
operations) is fit for the intended
purpose; equipment is maintained in a
state of readiness and meets safety
standards; each drilling/well operation
crew is properly trained and able to
promptly perform well-control activities
at any time during well operations;
compliance with safety standards; and
the current regulations will provide for
safe and proper field or reservoir
development, resource evaluation,
conservation, protection of correlative
rights, safety, and environmental
protection. We also review well records
to ascertain whether the operations have
encountered hydrocarbons or H2S and
to ensure that H2S detection equipment,
personnel protective equipment, and
training of the crew are adequate for safe
operations in zones known to contain
H2S and zones where the presence of
H2S is unknown.

information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to

(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of

BSEE also uses the information to make
certain that all new and existing cranes
installed on OCS fixed platforms must
be equipped with anti-two block safety
devices, and to assure that uniform
