From the Abstract: “Because of high levels of hydrocarbon exploration and development in the NW Gulf of Mexico, the management of the Flower Gardens Banks National Marine Sanctuary interacts regularly with the oil industry.
This paper presents the results of a number of monitoring studies dealing with the effects of drilling of oil and gas wells, including the result of drilling fluid toxicity studies.
From the Executive Summary: “This report was commissioned by Amoco UK. It identifies, describes and partially evaluates a number of solutions for managing cuttings piles in the North Sea environment. The main options considered are:
