The bottom line

Only about 15% of Perform asset abandonment is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.

Why: Because no child occupations are seeded, the scalar is derived from the industry lens ('Oil and Gas Extraction') and the process name. In this sector, 'asset abandonment' involves heavy field operations such as plugging wells and dismantling physical infrastructure, squarely placing the core value-producing work in the physical band.

Business-as-Code

Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.

Perform asset abandonment sits inside a larger value-flow — 1 parent structure it composes into. The hierarchy is grounding, not the story: it tells you which aggregate exposure Perform asset abandonment inherits.

How the work flows

Trigger: A production asset reaches the end of its economic life or a regulatory mandate requires its immediate decommissioning.

  1. Assess the asset and develop a comprehensive abandonment and decommissioning plan
  2. Obtain necessary regulatory approvals and environmental permits
  3. Execute well plugging and subsurface abandonment procedures
  4. Dismantle and remove surface and subsea infrastructure
  5. Remediate the site and restore the natural environment
  6. Secure final regulatory sign-off and extinguish associated liabilities

Outcome: The asset is safely plugged, infrastructure is removed, the site is restored to environmental standards, and legal liabilities are extinguished.
