Wells Expert Committee
The WEC aims to be the global voice of well Operators and a relevant and effective technical authority on the prevention and mitigation of high consequence well control events.
The purpose of the Wells Expert Committee (WEC) is to improve well Operators’ effectiveness in the prevention and mitigation of high consequence well control events throughout the well life cycle, but particularly during well construction and well work, recognising that such events pose the highest global risk to safety, to the environment, and to the industry’s license to operate.
