1. Introduction The Environmental Web (EW) is the official database for emissions and discharges from the offshore oil and gas industry in Norway. It is managed by the Information Manage- ment Association (EPIM) and is used by the Norwegian authorities and industry.

In 2008, an OLF sponsored Environment Web project group proposed terminology and definitions in the ISO 15926 Reference Data Library of the operators’ yearly environ- mental reporting to the authorities (Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (NPD) and Norwe- gian Pollution Control Authority (NPCA)). This report was prepared by Jennifer Samp- son – Epsis, Henrik Forssell – PCA and Martin Myrvang and Knut Husdal – Novatech.

Invenia AS and Akvaplan-niva AS are members of POSC Caesar and work together in the Special Interest Groups Health, Safety, Security and Environment. Both companies took part in the EW project and participated in courses and some workshops where the work on the EW definitions was presented. We were informed of problems associated with receiving good definitions of all the terms in the Environment Web.

Part-financed by AbeliaNord, Invenia and Akvaplan-niva continued competence and ca- pacity building related to ISO 15926 after the EW project was closed.

As our biologists and chemists identified significant flaws and mistakes in the proposed definitions, we decided to review the EW project results and to try achieve a workable set of ISO 15926 compatible definitions suitable for the EW.

This report presents updated definitions for more most of the EW definitions and identi- fies which definitions need a revision by specialists form other fields. The review was carried out by  Stian Halvorsen, Invenia (IT specialist, participated in 2 ISO 15926 courses and the EW workshops)  Rune Palerud, Akvaplan-niva (biologist, participated in 3 ISO 15926 courses and the EW workshops)  Jos Kögeler, Akvaplan-niva (biologist, participated in 2 ISO 15926 courses and the EW workshops)  Hanne Foshaug, Unilab Analyse (chemist. Participated on behalf of Akvaplan-ni- va)  May-Helen Holm, Unilab Analyse (chemist. Participated on behalf of Akva- plan-niva)

2. ISO 15926, RDL and ontologies The EW project report (ref. 1) gives a short description of ISO 15926, RDL and ontolo- gies.

3. Process This chapter describes the process of the review of the terms from the EW project. The process consists of the following steps: 1. Conducted two workshops to make a review of the new terms and definitions. 2. Document the result 3. Quality ensure the documentation 4. Update/correct the documentation 5. Deliver project results The “Appendix 1: List of new EW terms and definitions in RDL” from the document “Environment Web to ISO 15926 Reference” (ref. 1) was the foundation of the review. “EW terms Part 1 - final upload” (ref. 2) and “EW terms Part 2 – final upload” (ref. 3) are updated with definition and lingual change. We have removed terms that haven’t been changed and used POSC Caesar Reference Data System browser to search for terms and analyze existing relations.

We have used color coding in addition to action command in the spreadsheets to illustrate the changes we have made. Terms we wanted to update are highlighted in white, new terms in yellow and changed terms-name in red (see figure below).

4. Recommended changes and improvements The “Appendix 1: List of reviewed EW terms and definition” include 147 updated terms. We have also made some observations and documented it below.

4.1 Not reviewed The project members did not have necessary expertise to do a review of the definition be- low:

 NORWEGIAN POLLUTION CONTROL AUTHORITY (SFT) CLASS  SFT CLASS 200  SFT CLASS 201  SFT CLASS 1  SFT CLASS 1,1  SFT CLASS 2  SFT CLASS 3  SFT CLASS 4  SFT CLASS 6  SFT CLASS 7  SFT CLASS 8  SFT CLASS 100  WELL TEST  WATER SEPARATED FROM PRODUCED OIL FLOW  DRAINAGE WATER  WATER USED TO DISPLACE OIL IN STORAGE TANKS  WATER INJECTED IN OIL AND GAS RESERVOIR  WATER DISCHARGED TO SEA  WATER EXPORTED FROM FACILITY  WATER IMPORTED TO FACILITY  WATER IN OIL EXPORTED  OILY WATER  DISCHARGED OILY WATER FROM JETTING  DISCHARGED PRODUCED OILY WATER

4.2 Terms that must be defined We have identified that these terms must be defined since other terms definition refers to them:  CARCINOGENIC COMPOUND  CARCINOGENIC  TERATOGENIC COMPOUND  TERATOGENIC  MUTAGENIC  16 EPA-PAH  EPA  ALKYLPHENOL  DIBENZOTHIOPHENE  BENZO(G,H,I)PERYLENE  BENZO(B)FLUORANTHENE  BENZO(K)FLUORANTHENE  INDENO(1,2,3-C,D)PYRENE  DIBENZO(A,H)ANTHRACENE  PERYLENE  PROPIONIC ACID  BUTANOIC  PENTANOIC ACID  NAPHTHENIC ACID

4.3 The term CHEMICAL The term CHEMICAL misses a link to the ISO 15926 standard. Because of this it’s rec- ommended to review this term in the further. This also applies to the specialization of the term:  ACUTE CORROSIVE CHEMICALS POLLUTION TO SEA  ACUTE ENVIROTOXINS POLLUTION TO SEA  ACUTE CHEMICAL POLLUTION TO SEA OTHER THAN CORROSIVE CHEMICALS OR ENVIROTOXINS OR DRILLING FLUIDS OR FLAMMABLE CHEMICALS  ACUTE OIL BASED DRILLING FLUIDS POLLUTION TO SEA  ACUTE NON OIL BASED DRILLING FLUIDS POLLUTION TO SEA  ACUTE FLAMMABLE CHEMICALS POLLUTION TO SEA

4.4 The SFT CLASS 200 The class SFT CLASS 200 refers to itself (an eternal loop). This may apply to several terms. The project team has not investigated this further.

5. Summary and Conclusion We have updated 147 terms and included them in this document. “EW terms Part 1 - fi- nal” and “EW terms Part 2 – final” are both based on “EW terms Part 1 - final upload” (ref. 2) and “EW terms Part 2 – final upload” (ref. 3) from the EW project. To modify ex- isting Reference Data the PCA ID needs to be included for each term.

Project documentation, working data and all project meeting notes related to the Environ- ment Web project and the broader ISO 15926 project can be found at https://trac.posccae- sar.org/wiki/EW.
