NTL 2000-N06 - Deepwater Operations Plans (DWOP) - Ocotober 1, 2000

This Notice to Lessees and Operators (NTL) supersedes NTL 98-8N. We have increased the number of copies of a DWOP that lessees/operators (you) should submit but have made no other substantive changes. This NTL continues to address all deepwater development projects (water depths greater than 1,000 feet) and all projects utilizing subsea production technology. Projects
that rely solely on the use of conventional fixed-leg platforms for development do not need a DWOP. NTL 98-8N provided a new set of guidelines that were structured to be more user friendly and to answer many of your commonly asked questions.
