NOPSEMA informed Schlumberger Multiclient in May 2021 that it intended to seek a Monitoring Warrant under the Regulatory Powers (Standard Provisions) Act 2014 to inspect compliance with the Otway Basin 2DMC Marine Seismic Survey Environment Plan. The warrant was necessary because Schlumberger's Special Purposes Authority titles had expired on 26 May 2020, making the company no longer a current titleholder and therefore ineligible for inspection under Schedule 2A of the Offshore Petroleum and Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2006. NOPSEMA advised it would provide an Inspection Brief to streamline the process and identify required documents and information, aiming to minimise operational disruption during the compliance inspection.
