Take part in a separate programme specifically aimed at around 20 invited delegates from countries in the "Oil for development" programme, which Norad is planning to hold during the IAIA08 conference in Perth, Australia in order to raise expertise in impact assessments in these recipient countries.

StatoilHydro participated in the programme specifically aimed at invited delegates from countries in the "Oil for Development" programme during the IAIA08 conference in Perth, Australia, at the request of the Norwegian Ministry of the Environment, in order to raise expertise in impacts assessments in the recipient countries.

 

The last projects are expected to start up in October 2008. This includes two reinjection facilities and a major study to assess the reinjection of produced water (improved oil recovery - IOR - on Troll C). Effect measurements (EIF calculations) of actions from 2000 to 2007 are planned for 2008.

During the last year StatoilHydro has updated the estimates of the environmental impact factor (EIF) from produced water discharges for all fields on Norwegian continental shelf.

The estimated reduced EIF as well as the project cost for produced water reinjection from the Troll Oil fields was reported to Norwegian authorities in September 2008.

 

 

An agreement between the Ministry of the Environment and the Confederation of Norwegian Industry (NHO) and its member organisations in the industry was signed in January 2008. Endorsement of the fund solution and follow-up during 2008.

StatoilHydro endorsed the agreement in May 2008 and followed up the obligations pursuant to the agreement.  

Play an active part in the SEAPOP programme and contribute to its expansion to cover the whole of Norway. A separate study is planned, focusing on nesting seabirds on office buildings and in base areas, and on possible measures that can reduce harm and conflicts, while at the same time showing due consideration for the birds.

Through our representative in the steering committee for SEAPOP we have pushed for an extension of the programme to cover the whole of Norway. Such an extension was decided and partly implemented in 2008. StatoilHydro participated in a start-up meeting for "SEAPOP South" in April. A study of breeding seabirds (gulls and terns) on office buildings and industrial facilities in the Stavanger area, including StatoilHydro facilities, was conducted in 2008. A report on the status of seabirds on roofs and industrial sites was delivered in late 2008.
