Extractive industries and sustainable development : a best practice guide for offshore oil and gas development in the West African marine ecoregion
This publication, produced in the context of the Regional Programme for West African Marine and Coastal Conservation (PRCM), is a successor to a 2005 volume entitled "Environmental management of offshore oil exploitation and maritime oil transport." The book helped us to better understand the environmental and socio-economic issues and options created by the emerging offshore oil and gas industry. This new edition takes things a step further, by making positive propositions as to how the offshore oil and gas industry could contribute to sustainable development in our region.
Impacts of Sakhalin II phase 2 on western North Pacific gray whales and related biodiversity : report of the Independent Scientific Review Panel
The population of western gray whales numbers only about 100 animals and is classified on IUCN's Red List as "critically endangered". Under the auspices of IUCN, an independent scientific review panel was established to evaluate scientific aspects of western gray whale conservation in the context of Phase 2 of the Sakhalin II, an integrated oil and gas project being developed by the Sakhalin Energy Investment Company under a production sharing agreement with the Russian Federation and its Sakhalin Oblast.
