This book was released on 1983 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current and proposed Canadian onshore oil and gas drilling and production activities are reviewed with respect to their potential for environmental effects. Canadian petroleum geology and related hydrogeology are described to provide a framework for discussion of the impact of oil and gas drilling and recovery operations, including tar sands development, and waste disposal practices. Environmental legislation applicable to oil and gas industry activities is also reviewed. Major environmental concerns identified include the potential for soil and groundwater contamination by drilling fluids, solid wastes, chemical additives, oils and brines, produced sands, and liquid wastes. The potential for contamination depends on handling and disposal practices and the geologic and hydrogeologic characteristics of the drilling and production site. Although fairly comprehensive legislation is in place, its effectiveness in the long-term has not been assessed, and no specific legislation exists for in situ tar sands development. Areas where knowledge is lacking and research is required have been identified.
Download or read book Terra Nova Development written by Terra Nova Development Project Environmental Assessment Panel (Canada) and published by [Hull, Quebec] : Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency. This book was released on 1997 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Terra Nova development is a proposal to develop the petroleum resources of the Terra Nova oil field located on the north-east Grand Banks. Development will take place using a floating production, storage, and offloading vessel; semi-submersible drilling rigs; and shuttle tankers to carry the produced oil to on-shore facilities. This report describes the Terra Nova proposal, the process for a joint federal-provincial environmental assessment of the project, and the fundamental findings and recommendations arising from the assessment. These findings and recommendations cover the following: the socio-economic impacts of the project, including employment opportunities, worker safety, and benefits to the economy; the impact of the environment (such as wind, weather, waves, and ice) on the project; environmental effects of the project, including those from offshore discharges, drilling waste, produced water, and oil spills; and monitoring of the effects of the project. Includes glossary.

Download or read book Environmental Effects Monitoring for Exploration Drilling written by Robert A. Buchanan and published by [Calgary] : Environmental Studies Research Funds. This book was released on 2004 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main goal of this study was to develop a strategy for monitoring environmental effects at a single exploratory offshore well on the east coast. Work carried out in the study consisted of consultations with scientists, regulators, & stakeholders; reviews of regulatory regimes; toxicity results relevant to exploratory activities; and development of a decision tree for determining when & how to conduct environmental effects monitoring (EEM). The study report first presents background on potential issues related to the environmental impacts of exploratory drilling, the characteristics of typical exploratory drill rigs & drilling muds, the regulatory regime in Canada & elsewhere, and the biological & other effects of drilling. It then summarizes EEM programs & their results for exploratory wells on the Scotian Shelf & Grand Banks; outlines EEM issues of concern for the Newfoundland & Nova Scotia offshore, and discusses issue similarities & differences between the two areas; and draws brief conclusions on the application of production EEM experience to exploratory drilling EEM. Finally, an EEM decision process based on three scenarios appropriate to the east coast is presented, along with recommended study designs to address the scenarios.

Download or read book Fossilized written by Angela V. Carter and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thanks to increasingly extreme forms of oil extraction, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Newfoundland and Labrador underwent exceptional economic growth from 2005 to 2015. Fossilized investigates the environmental policy trends that supported this development trajectory, such as institutional restructuring that prioritizes extraction over environmental protection, alongside inadequate environmental assessment, land-use planning, and emissions controls. Angela Carter’s detailed analysis situates the policy dynamics of Canada’s largest oil-producing provinces within the historical and global context of late-stage petro-capitalism and deepening neoliberalization. As the global community moves toward decarbonization, Canada's petro-provinces are instead doubling down on oil – to their ecological and economic peril.

Canada Oil and Gas Lands Administration and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents a study of the business resources and capabilities in northern Canada, of the types of goods and services required now and in the future by oil and gas companies operating in that region, and of areas of opportunity for northern businesses in oil and gas industry markets. Study methodology placed special emphasis on obtaining first-hand information on northern supplier characteristics and constraints, and on oil/gas industry activity and purchasing practices. The study was oriented toward identifying incremental opportunities for northern companies to extend their sales or generate new sales to oil/gas company markets, and makes specific recommendations to that end. Oil and gas company purchasing profiles are presented for the exploration and production phases of development. Northern business characteristics are reviewed by sector and important supply issues are assessed. The appendix includes business profiles of major northern business centres such as Whitehorse, Yellowknife, Norman Wells, and Inuvik.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document is a review of pollution prevention practices & opportunities for offshore oil & gas activities in Atlantic Canada. After an introduction on the legal context, the costs & benefits of pollution prevention, and pollution prevention planning, it focusses on pollution prevention opportunities for five priority aspects of offshore operations: air emissions, drilling muds & cuttings, produced water, biocides, and glycol. The document identifies current practices already followed or designed into projects and future opportunities that may become technologically & economically feasible. It also discusses other opportunities for pollution prevention or examples not within those five priorities, such as slender well design and carbon dioxide injection, along with case studies of their application.
Download or read book Offshore Petroleum Politics written by Peter Clancy and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extraction of oil and gas from offshore continental shelves represents one of the most dynamic sectors of global petroleum development. It is also one of the most complex. Atlantic Canada is no exception and the history of Scotian Basin petroleum over the past half century reveals a fascinating series of political challenges, accommodations, and settlements. Peter Clancy’s comprehensive analysis of petroleum politics in Nova Scotia demonstrates the complex intergovernmental and intercorporate relationships, ecological concerns, and Aboriginal interests that have complicated offshore development. Among the analytic themes he addresses are institutional adaptation and rigidity, “basin development” as a policy challenge, the strong and weak characteristics of the offshore state, and the shifting shapes of the offshore polity. His incisive analysis of the complex politics at play provides new insights into the unique challenges facing the petroleum industry in Atlantic Canada.
