First published in 1983, Offshore Oil is an early and prescient analysis of the prospects for oil and gas development off Canada's east coast. The book examines the potential of offshore oil to provide growth in Canadian industries. As development proceeds huge sums will be invested and oil companies' needs include platforms, drilling rigs, ships, plants and a host of smaller items such as drills, pumps, transformers and electronic equipment. This presents opportunities not only for traditional industries such as steel and shipbuilding but also for the high-technology sector. Offshore oil holds the prospect of energy self-sufficiency for Canada and of better times for the depressed Atlantic economy. But development of gas could also bring a "boom and bust" that damages the region's social and economic fabric. This book considers both possibilities.
Eastcoast Offshore Oil by Sonya Dakers,Canada. Library of Parliament. Research Branch Pdf
The discovery of important accumulations of oil and natural gas in the eastcoast offshore region promises major economic and strategic benefits to Canada. Two important finds in particular, the Venture natural gas field and the Hibernia oil field, have spurred unprecedented oil and gas activity in Atlantic Canada in recent years in spite of a long-standing jurisdictional dispute between the federal government and Newfoundland. This document looks at eastcoast offshore oil and gas development.
Public Information on Oil and Gas Activities by Gordon Leitch,Environmental Studies Revolving Funds (Canada),IDP Consultants Limited Pdf
This study is a response to the need for a re-examination of information strategies and the public's need for information on developments in the east coast offshore oil and gas industry. The objectives of the study were to assess the information needs of the general public, to evaluate existing information materials, to identify deficiencies in the current information system, to identify strategies for better meeting the information needs of the general public, and to prepare sample information modules
Eastcoast Offshore Oil and Gas Development by Sonya Dakers Pdf
This paper gives background information on the development of the oil and natural gas industry off the Atlantic Provinces coast, particularly the Hibernia oil field and the Venture natural gas field. The environmental aspects of the developments are discussed, as well as the effects of icebergs and weather. Jurisdictional disputes are described and discussed both generally and in relation to the two particular drilling areas. A chronology of significant events is also included.
Social and Economic Issues in Atlantic Canada Concerning Offshore Oil and Gas Activities by Cleland, Dunsmuir Consulting Limited,Cleland, Dunsmuir Consulting Ltd,Environmental Studies Revolving Funds (Canada),Community Resources Services Cooperative Ltd Pdf
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.
Eastcoast Offshore Oil and Gas Development -- Rev by Canada. Library of Parliament. Research Branch,Sonya Dakers Pdf
The discovery of important accumulations of oil and natural gas in the eastcoast offshore region promises major economic and strategic benefits to Canada. Two important finds in particular, the Venture natural gas field and the Hibernia oil field, have spurred unprecedented oil and gas activity in Atlantic Canada in recent years. This document presents an historical perspective on the exploration; its environmental impact; icebergs, storms and safety; and jurisdictional disputes. It also looks at development issues such as the impact of oil and gas development, the Venture gas development and the Hibernia development plans.

Offshore Oil and Gas Environmental Effects Monitoring by Shelley L. Armsworthy,Peter J. Cranford,Kenneth Lee Pdf
Offshore oil and gas drilling operations take place in some of the world's most biologically productive oceanic waters. An ongoing concern related to the development of this industry is that exposure to contaminants from waste discharges may cause ill effects on organisms and their habitat. Environmental Effects Monitoring (EEM) programs are undertaken to verify environmental impact assessment predictions, to detect any unforeseen effects, and to help identify cause-effect relationships. EEM has been carried out worldwide for many offshore developments, and much has been learned about the fate of drilling and production contaminants and their biological effects. EEM programs have rapidly evolved in response to new knowledge on the transport, fate, and effects of potential contaminants; changes in regulatory requirements; and improved impact assessment technologies and statistical approaches for data interpretation. In May 2003, an international group of scientists, environmental managers, and industry representatives shared their expertise and new knowledge at the Offshore Oil and Gas Environmental Effects Monitoring Workshop. The participants reviewed the status of current offshore oil and gas EEM programs and identified future research needs to advance our understanding of the impacts of the offshore oil and gas industry. This book represents a selected number of peer-reviewed papers from workshop participants, covering a range of topics including regional experience from past and ongoing EEM programs; environmental management issues such as risk assessment and decision-making processes; the development of predictive risk assessment models; and new approaches and technologies formonitoring potential alterations in benthic, pelagic, and tropospheric ecosystem components. This book will be of use to scientists, environmental managers, regulators, and industry representatives, as well as members of the general public wishing to improve their understanding on the application of offshore oil and gas EEM programs for the protection of our ocean environment and its resources.
