About the Standards
To measure quality in all walks of life we need standards and everything that we do in the NS Accreditation & Standards product line begins with the NS-1™ and NS-2™ Standards.
NS-1™ and NS-2™ have been designed to supplement the API standards when conditions warrant it.
When to use NS-1™ & NS-2™
The Oil and Gas industry is working within drilling environments not thought of as possible 10 or 20 years ago. Equipment is being used in more arduous conditions.
Therefore, when being used in these harsher environments it needs to be made and inspected to a higher standard. So if you are drilling:
- Offshore or Deep Offshore
- In HP/HT conditions
- UBD or other managed pressure wells
- Undertaking ERD Projects
- Drilling in slim or super-slim holes
then why risk potential equipment failures and consider adopting the NS-1™ & NS-2™ Standards.
They have been constructed from equipment failure data and are in continuous development to provide solutions to complex drilling challenges.
This is why their online delivery subscription service is such an advantage to the oil and gas industry. Fully searchable and with direct support services from technical specialists - adoption of the standards can bring significant operational savings and provide Non-productive-time Solutions,
