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 Commissioner s Report Results of the Public Review on the Effects of Potential Oil and Gas Exploration Offshore Cape Breton written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents findings of a public review of the effects of potential offshore oil & gas exploration & drilling activities in Sydney Bight and southern Gulf of St. Lawrence regions where several companies have proposed to conduct seismic surveys. The review included a series of public meetings and receipt of submissions from interested parties. After an overview of the review process, the report summarizes the companies' exploration proposals, the characteristics of the natural environment & economy of the region, and the companies' assessments of the potential environmental & socio-economic effects of their proposals. The report then reviews the issues that dominated the meetings & submissions: protection of the marine environment, coexistence of seismic exploration with the region's fishing industry, the specific effects of exploration activities, regional development & socio-economic impacts, mitigative measures, issues affecting municipal governments & First Nations, and policy issues. The report concludes with recommendations arising from the review.
Download or read book Social and Environmental Impacts in the North Methods in Evaluation of Socio Economic and Environmental Consequences of Mining and Energy Production in the Arctic and Sub Arctic written by Rasmus Ole Rasmussen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Future development in the Arctic and Subarctic region requires careful attention to the possible consequences of the development activities themselves, in relation to their environmental, socioeconomic and cultural impacts. A more thorough understanding of the impact of future activities, however, demands the dissemination and confrontation of results from different regions and different scientific traditions. This requires scientific cooperation, not only across disciplines but across border. Primarily it requires both consensus and innovations in regard to methods. This book confronts such differences in approaches and methods in relation to the analysis of socioeconomic and environmental consequences of large-scale mineral and energy development activities in the Arctic and Subarctic, establishing the common ground upon which future research activities can be based.
Download or read book Social and Economic Issues in Atlantic Canada Concerning Offshore Oil and Gas Activities written by Cleland, Dunsmuir Consulting Limited and published by Ottawa, Ont. : Environmental Studies Revolving Funds. This book was released on 1985 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oil and gas industry operations on Canada's east coast take place in waters that have supported a fishing industry for centuries. The potential for conflict between these industries on the Scotian Shelf and the Grand Banks of Newfoundland takes three forms: competition for ocean space, interference with vessel operations arising from gear and equipment conflicts, and damage to bottom-founded structures.
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.

Download or read book Sustainable Resource Development written by Gary M. Zatzman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-12-10 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking a fresh new look at the energy industry and how the Earth's resources are being developed, the aim of this book is to aid engineers and scientists in attaining sustainability in this field, both from an economic and environmental perspective. The author herein presents engineering research and practice that is focused on achieving energy sustainability from a global perspective, as is also outlined in other Scrivener books, such as The Greening of Petroleum Operations and the author's own recently published book, Sustainable Energy Pricing, the companion volume to this book. The author applies the principles of economic sustainability developed there to re-examine actual engineering practices in fossil fuel and alternative energy (such as wind and tidal power) exploration and development. One of the book’s unique features is its analysis of what is deficient in the thinking and analytical frameworks that inform engineering work done in the field. The book addresses the complex issues surrounding our quest for sustainability and the key causes of the challenges that face the energy industry and its resource development. From this standpoint, the book challenges the reasoning and conclusions drawn from the often-quoted theory of "peak oil".
