Introducing the

IPAA Environmental Compliance System

Powered by RegScan Socrates

Oil and gas production is regulated by several different state and federal agencies. Advances in technology have allowed the industry to enjoy unprecedented growth, especially in unconventional shale reserves. But this growth has not come without increased oversight, as state and federal regulators continue to adapt to new industry practices.

For the past 25 years, RegScan has provided compliance management services to companies worldwide. We teamed up with IPAA [Independent Petroleum Association of America] to develop the IPAA Environmental Compliance System. A trusted industry advocate since 1929, IPAA provided the industry expertise needed to develop suites specific to oil and gas production. RegScan provided the technology.

Users of the IPAA Environmental Compliance System have instant online access to state and federal regulations and statutes, essentially in real time. The comprehensive guide contains all the regulatory requirements — fully integrated with permit applications, guidance documents, AND audit checklists — all of which can be accessed through the patent-pending Socrates project management platform.  Updates are seamless and automatic, so the most current information is always available.

RegScan and IPAA worked with two industry-leading consultants — including a former director of the Pennsylvania Bureau of Oil and Gas Management — to develop this cutting-edge product. The currently library includes suites for 11 jurisdictions. Suites are available for:

• Arkansas
• Bureau of Land Management
• Colorado
• EPA Module
• Louisiana
• North Dakota
• Ohio
• Oklahoma
• Pennsylvania
• Texas
• West Virginia
• Wyoming

The IPAA Environmental Compliance System was recently honored with an Environmental Business Journal Business Achievement Award for Project Merit. This one-of-a-kind, timeline-driven, compliance system outlines regulatory requirements throughout a well’s entire life cycle, giving users a step-by-step regulatory guide. Expert project management tools can streamline internal oversight, increasing efficiency.
