The Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) Brunei Section, in collaboration with the Petroleum Authority of Brunei Darussalam (PA), successfully hosted an SPE Distinguished Lecturer event yesterday. The lecture, titled “Liability is Forever: Risk Elements in the Implementation of Decommissioning and Well P&A,” was delivered by Dr. Brian Twomey, Managing Director of Reverse Engineering Services Ltd.
The event attracted over 50 participants, including representatives from various operators in Brunei’s oil and gas sector. Dr. Twomey’s presentation provided valuable insights into the long-term risks and responsibilities associated with decommissioning and well plugging and abandonment (P&A), a topic of increasing importance as the industry evolves.
Events such as this reflect the Petroleum Authority’s ongoing commitment to fostering learning, industry collaboration, and professional excellence within Brunei’s oil and gas sector. By supporting knowledge-sharing initiatives, PA continues to play a pivotal role in advancing best practices and compliance standards in the industry.
