IRP 24 is a revision that includes the following chapters: Interwellbore Communications, Fracture Stimulation Overview, Subject Well Integrity, and Surface Operations.
 
This IRP adopts a risk-based approach to develop a process for reviewing, assessing, and developing controls to minimize risk during fracture stimulation operations. The recommendations in this IRP allow for mindful planning and carefully designed control measures that reduce risk to an acceptable level. IRP 24 proposes a methodology outlined as the Fracture Stimulation Hazard Management Process (see 24.1.3). It also sets out a revised IRP 24 Hazard Register.
 
The purpose of the IRP 24 Hazard Register is to:

• provide a shared location for industry identified hazard scenarios and associated risk severity,
• facilitate operational planning by providing potential options to minimize risk and determine appropriate controls,
• establish a baseline and industry standard for risk tolerance, and/or
• provide a mechanism for contingency planning and development of site-specific control measures.

 
The IRP 24 Hazard Register is a living document to be updated regularly by industry experts. As new hazard scenarios are experienced and new controls or mitigations are developed, these hazard scenarios may be documented in the IRP 24 Hazard Register for industry-wide use. The IRP 24 Committee invites organizations to share lessons learned and additions to the Hazard Register.
