Environmental Investigations of Oil and Gas Development in the Eastern Part of the Barents Sea. Arctic: ecology and economy, 2011, no. 2(2), pp. 58-63. DOI: . (In Russian). Abstract: The oil and gas pools development in the Arctic and the Barents Sea in particular has the higher interest and concern of the public both in connection with adverse climatic conditions at the areas of the projects implementation and the environmental restrictions related to the fragility of the Arctic sea ecosystems, availability of numerous commercial and rare species of biota. How can the sea hydrocarbon production affect the environmental condition of the eastern part of the Barents Sea and the region of the Barents Sea as a whole? To get the fair answer to this question some scientific-research institutes and the environmental companies conduct the diverse research works in the region. They include the scientific environmental programs, the annual regional fishery monitoring, as well as the engineering and environmental surveys under oil and gas projects implemented in the Barents Sea, the project of Shtokman field development in particular. As a result the full-scale long-term material giving the retrospective data about condition and dynamics of the environmental essential ingredients is accumulated. These researches should become a basis of the environmental support of the Barents Sea shelf development. References:
