REC177-3331 | 16 - Training and behaviour | Existing well control training programs should be reviewed by the industry, regulators and training providers, with a focus on well control accidents that have occurred (in Australia and overseas). |
REC177-3329 | 17 - Assets and technology | Logistics management of well control equipment should be conducted in such a way as to operate as a check against deficient well control practices, for example, use of serial numbers to track availability, testing, and deployment of well control equipment. |
REC177-3304 | 26 - Research | It is recommended that industry, regulators, and training/research institutions liaise with one another with a view to developing better techniques for testing and verifying the integrity of cemented casing shoes as barriers (particularly in atypical situations such as where the casing shoe is located within a reservoir in a horizontal or high angle position at great depth). |
REC177-3290 | 38 - Agency/Department Reporting | The successful installation of every barrier should be the subject of written verification within and between licensees and rig operators; and should be the subject of explicit reporting to the relevant regulator(s). |

Training needs and opportunities should be identified. This process should take place on engagement and at appropriate intervals. |
REC177-3287 | 38 - Agency/Department Reporting | Licensees should be subject to an express obligation to inform regulators of problems which arise in the course of installing barriers, even if they consider that well integrity is not thereby compromised.

REC177-3332 | 16 - Training and behaviour | A specific focus on well control training should be mandatory for key personnel involved in well control operations (including both on‐rig personnel and onshore personnel in supervisory capacities). |
