Project-Based Environmental Assessments

Multiklient Invest AS Newfoundland Offshore Seismic Program, 2018-2023

The project has triggered environmental assessment under the Accord Acts. The following is a list of documents available on the public registry for the project.

The Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Petroleum Board (C-NLOPB) has made the decision to shorten the temporal scope of geophysical/geological environmental assessments (EAs) to six years to become more aligned with Period I of an exploration licence and to limit the southern boundary of the spatial scope of EAs in the Labrador Shelf offshore area to 52 degrees north. Based on this decision, Multiklient Invest AS (MKI) was directed on January 19, 2018 to provide two separate EAs to replace the March 2017 Environmental Assessment of Multiklient Invest Newfoundland and Labrador Offshore Seismic Program, 2017-2026 (LGL Limited).
