The European Commission has produced a "green paper" seeking comment on ail "European Programme for Critical Infrastructure Protection," including the E&P industry. IADC is working with the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers (OGP) and Europia, the European downstream trade association, to develop a response to the wide-ranging proposal. The commission launched the initiative in 2004 as part of the "fight against terrorism." The commission held two seminars in 2005 involving the industry to refine its goals, and now proposes a formal legislative path to achieve enhanced protection of energy-related facilities.
