Guidelines for the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resource (Resource Management and Administration) Regulations 2014 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose of this document This document provides guidance to petroleum and geothermal energy title holders and instrument holders for the preparation and submission of survey applications, well management plans (WMP), field development plans (FDP), or submission of petroleum or geothermal energy data under the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resource (Resource Management and Administration) Regulations 2014 (RMA) Regulations. This document is intended to clarify the regulatory expectations for resource management and administration of petroleum and geothermal energy activities in Western Australia (WA). Particularly, these Guidelines aim to: • describe the process required when preparing and submitting a management plan or data for activities related to titles issued under the Western Australian Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resources Act 1967; • clarify the Department’s expectations regarding the minimum structural and content requirements of an approved WMP, FDP and data submission; and • provide guidance regarding implementation of resource management petroleum legislation, in the context of the WMP, FDP and data regimes. For the purpose of these Guidelines, in the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resource (Resource Management and Administration) Regulations 2014 “petroleum” should be read as also including “geothermal” unless mentioned specifically. 1.2 Legislative Context The Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resources Act 1967 (PGERA) provides the regulatory framework for petroleum exploration and production onshore, and in the internal waters of Western Australia (see map at p. 2 for example of internal waters covered by the Act and these regulations). While these regulations do not cover the area administered under the WA Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act 1982, they do cover substantial offshore areas under the jurisdiction of the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resources Act 1967 (PGERA 67), particularly on the North West Shelf and should be read in an ‘offshore’ as well as an ‘onshore’ context. Completion of the regulations for the PGERA 67 will provide a model for the WA Petroleum (Submerged Lands) Act 1982 (RMR) Regulations. The (RMA) Regulations are the third and final part of the suite of regulations that commenced in 2010 with the introduction of the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resources (Occupational Safety and Health) Regulations 2010 and the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resources (Management of Safety) Regulations 2010 (the ‘safety regulations’). The process continued in 2012 with the commencement of the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resources (Environment) Regulations 2012 (the ‘environment regulations’). The petroleum safety and environment regulations currently in force complement these resource management regulations and should be read in conjunction with the draft regulations to assist in understanding the over-arching WA petroleum legislative regime. The (RMA) Regulations provide a risk-based management regime for the orderly exploration for, and production of, petroleum resources. The regulations cover a range of resource management matters, including well management plans for the approval of all petroleum drilling activities including shale and tight gas, reporting of discovery of petroleum, field development plans and approvals for petroleum recovery. The (RMA) Regulations support the Act and outline the requirements of the WMP, FDP and data regime, which are detailed in these Guidelines. The objects of the (RMA) Regulations are — (a) to ensure that operations relating to the exploration for petroleum or geothermal energy resources, or the recovery of petroleum or geothermal energy, in the State are — i. carried out in accordance with good oil-field practice; and ii. compatible with optimum long-term recovery of petroleum and geothermal energy. (b) to ensure that the Minister is informed, in a timely and consistent manner, of — i. exploration for petroleum or geothermal energy resources; ii. the discovery of petroleum or geothermal energy resources; iii. the appraisal of discoveries; iv. development and production operations in relation to petroleum or geothermal energy resources; and v. the results of operations. (c) to provide a framework for encouraging the adequate collection, retention and timely dissemination of petroleum and geothermal energy resources data; (d) to assist in ensuring the adequacy of the data acquired; and (e) to allow for the efficient management of data confidentiality and the disclosure of data on completion of the relevant confidentiality periods. www.dmp.wa.gov.au | 1PDF Image | Western Australia Guidelines for Geothermal Energy Resource
