Impacts of offshore oil on northeast Scotland

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7352149
Massachusetts, along with other New England states, will face great economic, social, and environmental challenges from proposed offshore oil development on Georges Bank and the Outer Continental Shelf beyond Cape Cod. Northeast Scotland has faced, and to some extent resolved, similar challenges created by the rapid construction of facilities for extracting, processing, and transporting petroleum from the rich North Sea oil fields. To acquaint New England with northeast Scotland's experiences and problems in coping with the onshore impacts of offshore oil development, the MIT Sea Grant Program sponsored this lecture by Mr. John Hutton of the North East Scotland Development Authority.
