Description
Summary:Recently, an industry task force studied the value of the API monogram for oil well cements. he API monogram is not a requirement of the API specification. API Subcommittee 10 on Well Cements formed a manufacturer's advisory group in 1998, to investigate the reasons for declining participation in the monogram program. Working with the API quality committee, the advisory group explored options and developed an improved audit process. The new process focused on selecting and developing a pool of auditors who specialize in the particular requirements in Specification 10. The advisory group, now with task group status, continues to pursue ways to strengthen and enhance the monogram.
