RPSEA is required to write a draft Annual Plan (DAP), a component of the Ultra-Deepwater and Unconventional Natural Gas and Other Petroleum Resources Research and Development Program Annual Plan established to the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct), each year. The DAP is written and submitted by RPSEA and is used as the input for a final Annual Plan that must be approved by the Secretary of Energy each year. Please see below each Annual Plan and draft Annual Plan written to date.
