Practical guidance for drilling and completions operations across Canada’s upstream oil and gas sector. Developed by industry for industry, informed by regulators and updated to reflect changes in technology and operations.
The Drilling and Completions Committee (DACC) brings together technical experts from across Canada's upstream oil and gas sector to address key operational challenges and develop the guidance that supports safer, more consistent drilling and completions practices.
DACC is governed by four upstream oil and gas trade associations:
Canadian Association of Energy Contractors (CAOEC)
Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP)
Explorers and Producers Association of Canada (EPAC)
Enserva
Energy Safety Canada serves as the secretariat for the Drilling and Completions Committee (DACC), supporting the development, maintenance, and publication of Industry Recommended Practices (IRPs).
This includes coordinating technical working groups and facilitating the collaborative process through which IRPs are developed and reviewed.
