From page 1...
... An ad hoc committee convened by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine was charged with performing a peer review of this interim report encompassing the study methods, the quality of the data informing the study, and the strength of any inferences drawn by the NRL authors; accordingly, this final peer review report focuses on the technical nature of the interim NRL report (OSRR 1063)

From page 2...
... The committee suggests that a broad-based research program may be appropriate to address the complex challenges of wellhead combustion. To this end, identifying better unit problems to frame such a research program will require more substantive understanding of the underlying conditions of wellhead combustion, as well as the goals for the stakeholders of such work.
