Abstract
MMS is updating two documents incorporated by reference in regulations governing oil, gas, and sulphur operations in the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). The two new editions will continue to ensure that lessees use the best available and safest technologies while operating in the OCS. This rule is also necessary because the previously referenced documents are no longer available. The updated documents are the sixth edition of the American Petroleum Institute's (API) Recommended Practice for Analysis, Design, Installation and Testing of Basic Surface Safety Systems for Offshore Production Platforms and the second edition of API's Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards, Chapter 14, Section 8, Liquefied Petroleum Gas Measurement.
