From the Abstract: “During E&P offshore activities, and in particular during drilling operations, the living conditions of the flora and fauna on the seabed may be disturbed.
This chapter uses a survey the waters, sediment, plankton, and benthic invertebrates of the Ekofisk oil field in the North Sea as a way to demonstrate how long-term monitoring programs might be conducted.

From the Abstract: “We compare foraminifera and macrofauna as bio-indicators of oil-based drill mud disposal site off Congo. The most polluted sites are characterized by poor faunas, dominated by some very tolerant taxa.

From the Abstract: “Due to large constraints in environmental regulations, discharge of drill cuttings at sea has to be controlled. It is therefore necessary to get basic information in order to select environment-friendly drilling fluids.
