Abstract

Safeguarding of the environment for the local people and their livelihoods and the wildlife has always been of primary importance balanced against our demand for fossil fuels. This book examines the various sources of pollution and environmental damage which can result from such exploitation. The industry has not been slow to recognize its responsibility to the communities and the environment. A great deal of effort has gone into ensuring that wherever possible environmental damage is prevented but also that we are prepared to deal with any eventuality be it acute or chronic. The ability to respond efficiently and effectively in the event of an emergency is ensured through good contingency planning. This book examines in depth all aspects of these issues citing some interesting case studies. As was demonstrated by the Braer incident in Shetland, a good plan is vital but it is only as good as the people implementing it. This book gives a wonderfully comprehensive insight into the history of the industry with a range of useful facts and figures t o back up the discussion and case studies. In the 25 chapters the various authors chronicle all aspects of this diverse industry which has become
