How To Streamline Oil and Gas Technical Documentation

How To Streamline Oil and Gas Technical Documentation

Sep 29, 2025

Offshore oil and gas programmes generate thousands of documents. Overlaps, gaps and outdated procedures can derail readiness. WMT Marine Ltd streamlines documentation so engineering, HSE and operations work from one controlled source of truth.



The five pillars of streamlined documentation


  1. Scope & architecture — define the document tree (policies → standards → procedures → work instructions → forms).
  2. Modular templates — reusable, spec-driven sections for faster updates.
  3. Plain English + P&IDs — pair clear text with schematics and step lists.
  4. Lifecycle control — drafting, review, approval, revision, obsolescence.
  5. Field validation — procedure walk-downs and operator sign-off.
