Common Question

What information should be included in a DDS amendment request?

Archive Findings

The Directive 059 FAQ says amendment requests should identify whether data are being added, deleted, or changed.

It also says to include from/to codes and values and the required supporting details, such as dates, casing, cementing, completion dates, and interval depths.

Write amendment requests like a change log. AER should be able to see the old value, the new value, the affected UWI, and the reason for the change without guessing.

Current Guidance

Use current Directive 059 and Manual 027 for DDS amendment procedures and current system requirements.
