Reference Designation System for Oil and Gas

Reference Designation System for Oil and Gas

During the winter and spring of 2020, the work related to development of the first version of a Reference Designation System for oil and gas industry has been executed. The deliverables can be read and downloaded below.

This first version of the RDS-O&G will be used and implemented as part of the READI services. The documentation provided as PDFs are for human understanding and explanation of the main principles given in ISO/IEC 81346.
