Pages : 174
Book Description
First published in 1983, Offshore Oil is an early and prescient analysis of the prospects for oil and gas development off Canada's east coast. The book examines the potential of offshore oil to provide growth in Canadian industries. As development proceeds huge sums will be invested and oil companies' needs include platforms, drilling rigs, ships, plants and a host of smaller items such as drills, pumps, transformers and electronic equipment. This presents opportunities not only for traditional industries such as steel and shipbuilding but also for the high-technology sector. Offshore oil holds the prospect of energy self-sufficiency for Canada and of better times for the depressed Atlantic economy. But development of gas could also bring a "boom and bust" that damages the region's social and economic fabric. This book considers both possibilities.

Book Description
The intent is twofold: i) to identify infrastructure needs, and supply and service opportunities, including direct or indirect employment opportunities, arising from exploration and development of oil and gas resources on the west coast of Newfoundland; and ii) to enhance the participation of local business, institutions, associations and individuals in commercial and direct and indirect employmen [...] Western Newfoundland is at the epicentre of several sedimentary basins: to the west the Anticosti and Magdalen basins, to the south the Sydney Basin and to the north the St. [...] There have in addition been numerous telephone and electronic exchanges with a wide range of parties including contact with a number of people who participated in the Round Tables, parties with exploration licences, representatives of the Canada Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Petroleum Board (CNLOPB) and the Newfoundland and Labrador Oil and Gas Industries Association, and others in the oil an [...] Based on the Terms of Reference and the dialogue that has occurred, the two key research questions that bring focus to this study are: i) What are the key determining factors that influence the assessment of need with respect to the supply of infrastructure and services for the oil and gas sector in Western Newfoundland; and ii) What are the appropriate response strategies? [...] Classification of the services needed by the oil & gas industry Given both the dynamic nature of the industry and the stage of exploration on the west coast, the scenarios that have been explored are a tool for discussion, a tool to facilitate planning and decision making and a tool to be continually subject to review and refinement.

Book Description
This study documents the responses of families living in Newfoundland to the rotational patterns of work associated with offshore oil and gas employment. Based on the reactions and adjustments that families presently make, recommendations are offered to alleviate a number of problems identified. The approach used began with a literature review of family adaptation to spousal absence. This assisted in the development of questionnaires that were sent to 203, or approximately 40%, of the married offshore work force and their spouses resident in Newfoundland in July 1985. One hundred fifty responses (74%) were received from the female spouses, and 101 responses (50%) from the males. Based on an analysis of these returns, detailed personal interviews were undertaken with 23 couples and 8 individuals from among those who had received questionnaires
