Introduction E ach year, OGUK carries out a benchmarking exercise for operators reporting data into EEMS to gain an overview of their individual performance in the context of the overall industry. Areas of concerning or promising performance can be identified, with the aim of achieving better industry-wide performance. The analysis is presented anonymouslywith each company allocated a letter in each category. A single operator’s performance cannot be tracked from one graph to another. Each individual operator will be informed of their rankings in each category, without the ability to attribute the environmental performance of the other companies. Given the varied scale and types of operations on the UKCS, benchmarked rankings may not truly reflect some individual environmental performances, but allow a general understanding to be developed.
