OCS Performance Measures Program

During the first quarter of each year, BSEE's Safety and Environmental Management Systems rule requires that all active operators submit the performance measures data outlined on Form BSEE-0131. Information about the data survey and how to submit performance data is provided in Notice to Lessees 2011-N01 (issued February 8, 2011). The data submitted is processed using a suite of formulas designed to gauge aspects of the offshore oil and gas development & production industry's safety and environmental performance on the outer continental shelf (OCS). The bureau uses these formulas to calculate 20 annual, OCS-wide, performance indices. These indices are designed to provide the public with information about OCS performance trends and also allow individual operators to benchmark their performance against aggregate industry data.

The continued success of the OCS Performance Measures Program depends on participation by OCS lease operators. Completed forms may be emailed to sems@bsee.gov or semp@boemre.gov
