This discussion defines “Well Integrity” and presents the framework used by BP to implement and manage well integrity programs. Well integrity has received increasing attention from all aspects of the petroleum industry, from well design and construction to operations, maintenance and well abandonment. Factors driving this attention include a desire to ensure wells remain viable in fields with long lives, maintenance of company reputation and avoidance of litigation. Confusion regarding the definition of well integrity can make it difficult to create a holistic approach to implementing a management system.
