IPT Global Receives Historic BSEE Approval for Primary Validation of Inflow Tests in the Gulf of America

IPT Global, the pioneer and recognized global leader in digital well assurance solutions and associated advisory services to the oil and gas industry, today announced that it has received official approval from the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) to serve as primary validation provider of inflow tests in the Gulf of America (GoA).  

This approval is the first of its kind and marks a major milestone for IPT Global and the broader offshore industry.  

The multi-year approval process included direct engagement with BSEE, detailed technical evaluations, and close collaboration with six offshore operators. As part of the validation pathway, IPT Global also completed a multi-month independent review conducted by DNV to support the use of SureTec® for inflow test validation. In addition, the IPT Global team conducted multiple training sessions with BSEE engineers and inspectors to ensure full alignment on procedures, regulatory expectations, and compliance requirements, reinforcing the technical rigor and transparency behind this approval. 

This designation establishes IPT Global as the first approved provider for primary validation of inflow tests in the GoA, setting a new benchmark for independent validation and regulatory collaboration in offshore operations.
