DESIGNATION OF OPERATOR
The lessee or grantee identified below is, on the records of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, a holder of the
following lease or grant (check box and enter number):
□ Lease Number: ______________ or □ Grant Number: ______________
Regional BOEM Office:
and hereby designates:
Name:
as the operator and local agent (designated operator) with full authority to act on the lessee’s or grantee’s behalf to
perform activities to comply with the OCS Lands Act, terms of the lease or grant, and applicable regulations. The
designated operator agrees to comply with all terms and conditions of the lease or grant and regulations governing
those activities and may be held liable and subject to penalties for its failure to comply during the time it was operator,
notwithstanding its subsequent resignation. The Regional Supervisor or his representative may serve the designated
operator written or oral instructions in securing compliance with the applicable regulations. This designation of
operator is made with respect to the block(s) and/or aliquot part(s) described in Exhibit “A” attached hereto and made a
part hereof.
It is understood that this designation of operator does not relieve the lessee or grantee of responsibility for compliance
with the terms of the lease, grant, laws, and applicable regulations. It is also understood that this designation of
operator does not constitute an assignment of any interest in the lease or grant. In case of default on the part of the
designated operator, the lessee or grantee will make full and prompt compliance with all regulations, lease terms, or
orders of the Secretary of the Interior or their representative. If there is a change in the designated operator, the
lessee or grantee must provide written notice to the Regional Supervisor and identify the new designated operator
within 72 hours. The lessee or grantee is the operator and responsible for compliance until BOEM approves
designation of the new operator. The designated operator shall comply with the Department of the Interior’s
nonprocurement debarment and suspension regulations as required by 2 CFR Part 1400 and shall communicate the
requirement to comply with these regulations to persons with whom it does business related to this designation by
including this term in its contracts and transactions.
