  2. The NEB regulates oil & gas exploration and production activities in the North

  3. Some Challenges • Safety Culture • Rigorous risk assessment • Baseline information • Platform design and station keeping • Well condition modeling, monitoring, and control • Capping, Containment, and relief well capabilities • Effective response capability

  4. Discussion
