Environmental effects of offshore produced water discharges evaluated for the Barents Sea
Project manager Jonny Beyer This report presents (1) an overview of the ecotoxicological knowledge regarding offshore produced water (PW) discharges on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS), (2) an overview of the ecological characteristics and values of the Barents Sea, and (3) an overview of the t...
