Global Liaisons WITS

Regional discipline representatives strengthening alignment between global well integrity priorities and local SPE communities. Please reach out to your local and regional liaison for more information.

The WITS organization has expanded their global liaison role to include regional liaisons in major SPE regions as discipline representatives around the world. Our regional liaisons serve our global mission while aligning with regional SPE chapters and local well integrity discipline priorities.

OUR GLOBAL LIAISONS

A regional network to strengthen local learning, shared practices, and global alignment.

With well integrity stretching and growing beyond conventional oil and gas wells to include containment infrastructure for downhole energy systems, we are revisiting how best to strengthen the well integrity discipline at the regional and local levels with a network of shared learning.

Regional liaisons give our industry an opportunity to reach regional communities to learn locally, share and implement prevention solutions more effectively. The industry discipline membership is growing and engaging more broadly for purposes of increasing local competencies and learnings on well integrity risk prevention that keeps pace with standards, regulatory and industry practices.

Regional WITS liaisons priorities include the promotion and alignment application of well integrity discipline practices between different regions consistent with global standards. The regional WITS liaison act as bridges between different geographic areas, facilitating communication and sharing of lessons. They promote and support workshops, training and other activities to strengthen the skills of professionals involved in well integrity management, and ensuring awareness of regional rules and regulations.

GLOBAL & REGIONAL LIAISONS PRIORITIES

Your local involvement helps strengthens our discipline, bring regions closer together, increases technical discipline capability and ensures awareness of multi-discipline contribution of well integrity.

Please reach out to your local and regional liaison for more information.
