Title: Ranking of air emission reduction projects in a company environmental plan

Conference ·
OSTI ID:414738

In the Netherlands the E&P industry has agreed an Environmental Covenant (declaration of intent) with the Government in 1995. In the Covenant reduction targets for the E&P industry as a whole have been set for the years 2000 and 2010 for all pollution to air, water and soil (relative to the base year 1990). Implementation is on a company level by a phased implementation of BAT (best available technology). When a target cannot be met in time implementation can be shifted to a later date, as compensation the attainment of other target(s) can be accelerated. In essence this is a trade off and particularly relevant as the targets in the Covenant are national reduction targets, and not targets which have taken in account the specific areas where the E&P industry can best reduce its missions.
