(Continued from issue 105 (2007) 45, pp 45-55) SC&V (site clearance and verification) comprise the last stage of offshore decommissioning in which abandoned well and platform locations are cleared of all debris remaining from oil and gas activities. Net trawling uses a reinforced net assembly that is dragged along the ocean bottom to pick up debris. This final of two articles on decommissioning oil and gas platforms in the US Gulf of Mexico presents descriptive statistics based between 2001 and 2005, updating previous analysis covering 1997 to 2001. The costs relative to structure type and water-depth categories are summarized and factors that impact the cost of SC&V operations are discussed.
