The Offshore and Onshore Reliability Data (OREDA) project was established in 1981 in cooperation with the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (now Petroleum Safety Authority Norway). OREDA's original objective was the collection of petroleum industry safety equipment reliability data. The current organization, as a cooperating group of several oil & gas companies, was established in 1983, and at the same time the scope of OREDA was extended to cover reliability data from a wide range of equipment used in oil & gas exploration and production (E&P). OREDA primarily covers offshore, subsea and topside equipment, but does also include some onshore E&P, and some downstream equipment as well.[1][2]
The main objective of the OREDA project is to contribute to an improved safety and cost-effectiveness in design and operation of oil & gas E&P facilities, through collection and analysis of maintenance and operational data, establishment of a high quality reliability database, and exchange of reliability, availability, maintenance and safety (RAMS) technology among the participating companies.[1]
Project Phases
- Phase XII (2015)
The OREDA project is in its 12th phase as of 2015. In this phase, a new webshop solution has been established, in collaboration with the European Safety Reliability & Data Association {ESReDA).[2][3]
- Phase XI (2012–2014)
New data collection software was developed; the 6th handbook (2015 edition) was planned; !!!QA of existing database!!!; a new webpage design was developed.[2]
