    Othman,

    There was a similar query last week and it seems that you didn't see it.

    For a start, you may refer to the following for well integrity management and related topics. Some of these deal with some specific elements of the well.

    - OLF 117 - Recommended Guidelines for Well Intergity

    - An Introduction to Well Integrity (OLF Publication)
    - NORSOK D-010 - Well integrity in drilling and well operations
    - API RP 90-2006 Annulus Pressure Management
    - ISO 16530 Part 2 - Well Integrity for the operational phase
    - API Spec 14A (ISO 10432:2004) : Specification for Subsurface Safety Valve Equipment
    - API RP 14B (ISO 10417:2004) : Design, Installation, Repair and Operation of Subsurface Safety Valve Systems
    - API Spec 6A (ISO 10423) : Specification for Wellhead and Christmas Tree Equipment
    - API RP 14C : Analysis, Design, Installation and Testing of Basic Surface Safety Systems on Offshore Production Platforms
    - API RP 14H: Recommended Practice for Installation, Maintenance and Repair of Surface Safety Valves and Underwater Safety Valves


    There are numerous SPE papers on the same subject available at www.onepetro.org, which may provide you further insight into actual practices followed by operators worldwide.

    There are other elements of well integrity like selection of cementing, tubulars, shallow gas management, H2S service and others which are covered in various publications (ISO, API, NORSOK, etc.). Once you define what you want to cover for your PhD, you may be able to narrow down on what to look for.
