Opening the Area around Jan Mayen for Petroleum Activities – Public Hearing on Impact Assessment
Åpningsprosess ved Jan Mayen - konsekvensutredning sendes på høring
The impact assessment forms part of the process of opening areas on the Norwegian Continental Shelf around Jan Mayen for petroleum activities.
Konsekvensutredningen er en del av åpningsprosessen for norske havområder ved Jan Mayen.
A geological survey has also been undertaken.
I tillegg gjennomføres en geologisk kartlegging.
Given that the impact assessment provides a basis for doing so, the government will present a white paper to the Storting, recommending that the area be opened for petroleum activities.
Forutsatt at konsekvensutredningen gir grunnlag for det, vil regjeringen legge fram en stortingsmelding som anbefaler åpning for petroleumsvirksomhet.
“The maritime areas around Jan Mayen may contain substantial oil and gas resources.
- Havområdene ved Jan Mayen kan inneholde betydelige olje- og gassressurser.
The impact assessment is now being submitted for public hearing so that interested parties may give feedback and contribute to quality assurance of the studies that have been carried out,” says Minister of Petroleum and Energy Ola Borten Moe.
Konsekvensutredningen sendes nå på høring slik at berørte parter kan komme med innspill og bidra til kvalitetssikring av det utredningsarbeidet som er gjennomført, sier olje- og energiminister Ola Borten Moe.
The Norwegian Petroleum Directorate has previously carried out limited studies of the oil and gas potential of the areas around Jan Mayen.
Oljedirektoratet har tidligere gjort begrensede undersøkelser av potensialet for olje og gass ved Jan Mayen.
As part of the opening process, the Directorate undertook a new geological survey in 2011 and 2012.
Som en del av åpningsprosessen har direktoratet i 2011 og 2012 gjennomført ny geologisk kartlegging.
The initial results of the survey will be presented in early 2013.
De første resultater fra kartleggingen vil bli lagt fram tidlig i 2013.
The impact assessment summarises technical reports prepared by government agencies and independent expert institutions.
Konsekvensutredningen oppsummerer fagutredninger utført av statens egne fagetater og uavhengige fagmiljøer.
The reports cover matters defined in an impact assessment programme that was finalised following a public hearing in the autumn of 2011.
Utredningene dekker forhold som er definert i et utredningsprogram som ble fastsatt etter offentlig høring høsten 2011.
One finding of the impact assessment is that a major, sudden oil spill may have a negative environmental effect, but the probability of such an incident occurring is very low.
Et større akuttutslipp kan ha negativ miljøpåvirkning, men sannsynligheten for at en slik hendelse skal inntreffe er svært lav.
Three months are allocated for consultation on the impact assessment.
Det er satt av tre måneder til høring av konsekvensutredningen.
The Ministry is at the same time initiating a public hearing on an impact assessment relating to the Barents Sea South-East.
Departementet sender samtidig ut konsekvensutredning for Barentshavet sørøst på høring.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
BAKGRUNN
Section 3-1 of the Petroleum Act requires an opening process to be completed before any area on the Norwegian Continental Shelf may be opened for petroleum activity.
Før et område på norsk sokkel kan åpnes for petroleumsaktivitet må det i henhold til petroleumslovens § 3-1 gjennomføres en åpningsprosess.
The Petroleum Act confers authority to conduct resource management, including the opening processes, to the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy.
Petroleumsloven gir hjemmel for ressursforvaltningen, herunder igangsetting av åpningsprosesser.
The opening process consists of two parts.
Åpningsprosessen består av to deler.
The first is a survey of the geology, and thus the resource potential, of the area.
Den ene delen er en kartlegging av geologien og dermed ressurspotensialet i området.
The second part is an impact assessment.
Den andre delen er en konsekvensutredning.
The aim of the impact assessment is to produce a basis for balancing different interests and issues of significance to a recommendation to open the area for petroleum activities.
Hensikten med konsekvensutredningen er å fremskaffe et grunnlag for å avveie ulike interesser og forhold av betydning for anbefaling om åpning.
Such an assessment is undertaken through the preparation of an impact assessment under the auspices of the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy.
En slik vurdering gjøres ved at det utarbeides en konsekvensutredning i regi av Olje- og energidepartementet.
The island and the rock underneath it are considered to be entirely volcanic.
Øya og bergartene under den, regnes i sin helhet som vulkanske.
Most of the micro continent located south of the island is covered or influenced by lava rock, but it also comprises rock that offers possibilities for oil and gas discoveries.
Det meste av mikrokontinentet sør for øya er dekket eller påvirket av lavabergarter, men består også av bergarter som gir muligheter for funn av olje og gass.
The geological data available for the area has been insufficient to allow the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate to estimate the petroleum resources in the area.
Det geologiske datagrunnlaget i området har vært for mangelfullt til at Oljedirektoratet har kunnet gi et estimat for petroleumsressursene i området.
Iceland is currently completing its second licensing round, and plans to award production licences towards the end of 2012.
Island gjennomfører for tiden sin andre konsesjonsrunde og planlegger tildeling av utvinningstillatelser mot slutten av 2012.
The involvement and quality assurance of affected parties are important elements in the impact assessment process.
Involvering av berørte parter og kvalitetssikring er viktige elementer i konsekvensutredningsprosessen.
Both the proposed programme for the impact assessment and the impact assessment itself are therefore being submitted for public hearing.
Både forslaget til program for konsekvensutredning og selve konsekvensutredningen sendes derfor på offentlig høring.
Extensive survey work has been conducted to obtain additional, updated knowledge.
Et omfattende utredningsarbeid for å fremskaffe ytterligere og oppdatert kunnskap er gjennomført.
The impact assessment summarises the updated and extended knowledge base.
Konsekvensutredningen sammenfatter det oppdaterte, styrkede kunnskapsgrunnlaget.
The impact assessment forms part of the process of formally opening the Barents Sea South-East for petroleum activities.
Konsekvensutredningen er en del av åpningsprosessen for Barentshavet sørøst.
Given that the impact assessment provides a basis for doing so, the Government will present a white paper to the Storting recommending that the area be opened for petroleum activity.
Forutsatt at konsekvensutredningen gir grunnlag for det, vil regjeringen legge fram en stortingsmelding som anbefaler åpning for petroleumsvirksomhet.
“A number of studies of the effects of petroleum activity in the Barents Sea South-East have been carried out in connection with the impact assessment.
- I forbindelse med konsekvensutredningen er det gjennomført en rekke studier av effekter ved petroleumsvirksomhet i Barentshavet sørøst.
These studies largely confirm our experience from more than 30 years of oil and gas activity in the Barents Sea.
Studiene bekrefter langt på vei de erfaringer vi har fra mer enn 30 års olje- og gassvirksomhet i Barentshavet.
The consultation process is important, not only as a means of involving all affected parties in the opening process, but also as a means of quality assurance.
Høringsprosessen er viktig både for å involvere alle berørte parter i denne sentrale prosessen, men også som kvalitetssikring.
I look forward to receiving feedback on the knowledge base we are presenting today,” says Minister of Petroleum and Energy Ola Borten Moe.
Jeg ser fram til å motta innspill til det kunnskapsgrunnlaget vi i dag legger fram, sier olje- og energiminister Ola Borten Moe.
Oil and gas have been discovered both to the east and to the west of the area.
Det er påvist olje og gass både øst og vest for området.
There are therefore good chances of discoveries and subsequent production in the south-eastern Barents Sea.
Det er derfor gode muligheter for funn og senere produksjon i Barentshavet sørøst.
This will help to maintain Norway’s oil and gas production from about 2030 onwards.
Dette vil bidra til å opprettholde norsk olje- og gassproduksjon fra omkring 2030.
As part of the opening process, the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate has conducted a geological survey of the area.
Som en del av åpningsprosessen har Oljedirektoratet gjennomført en geologisk kartlegging av området.
The initial results of the survey will be presented in early 2013.
De første resultater fra kartleggingen legges fram tidlig i 2013.
The impact assessment summarises technical reports prepared by government agencies as well as independent expert institutions.
Konsekvensutredningen oppsummerer fagutredninger utført av statens egne fagetater og uavhengige fagmiljøer.
The reports cover matters defined in the impact assessment programme, which was finalised following a public hearing on 5 July 2012.
Utredningene dekker forhold som er definert i utredningsprogrammet som ble fastsatt etter offentlig høring den 5. juli 2012.
“The reports expand upon, strengthen and confirm existing knowledge.
- Utredningene utdyper, styrker og bekrefter eksisterende kunnskap.
They show that petroleum activity in the Barents Sea South-East has the potential to stimulate substantial value creation and employment nationally, and to have major ripple effects in Northern Norway, and in Finnmark county in particular,” says Minister of Petroleum and Energy Ola Borten Moe.
De viser at petroleumsaktivitet i Barentshavet sørøst kan gi betydelig verdiskaping og sysselsetting nasjonalt og store ringvirkninger i Nord-Norge og spesielt i Finnmark, sier olje- og energiminister Ola Borten Moe.
The assessments of environmental consequences show that ordinary petroleum activity will have little impact.
Vurderingene av miljøkonsekvenser viser liten påvirkning fra ordinær petroleumsvirksomhet.
A major, sudden spill may have a negative environmental effect, but the probability of such an incident is very low.
Et større akuttutslipp kan ha negativ miljøpåvirkning, men sannsynligheten for at en slik hendelse skal inntreffe er svært lav.
The Ministry is at the same time initiating a public hearing on an impact assessment relating to Jan Mayen.
Departementet sender samtidig ut konsekvensutredning for Jan Mayen på høring.
The treaty between Norway and Russia concerning maritime delimitation and cooperation in the Barents Sea and the Arctic Ocean entered into force on 7 July 2011.
Overenskomsten med Russland om maritim avgrensning og samarbeid i Barentshavet og Polhavet trådte i kraft 7. juli 2011.
The Storting (the Norwegian parliament) has expressed its support (in Recommendation 433 S (2010–2011)), for the government’s intention to launch an impact assessment under the Petroleum Act with the aim of awarding production licences and gathering data west of the delimitation line in the southern Barents Sea (south of 74° 30’ N).
433 S (2010-2011) regjeringens ønske om å igangsette en konsekvensutredning etter petroleumsloven med sikte på tildeling av utvinningstillatelser og en datainnsamling vest for avgrensningslinjen i Barentshavet sør (sør for 74° 30’ N).
Given that the impact assessment provides a basis for doing so, the government will present a white paper to the Storting, recommending that these areas be opened for petroleum activity.
Forutsatt at konsekvensutredningen gir grunnlag for det, vil regjeringen legge frem en stortingsmelding som anbefaler åpning av disse områdene for petroleumsvirksomhet.
Russia has awarded three production licences covering most of Russia’s new continental shelf area east of the delimitation line.
Russland har tildelt tre utvinningstillatelser som omfatter det mest av Russlands nye areal øst for avgrensningslinjen.
These production licences include obligations to gather seismic data and to drill exploration wells.
Utvinningstillatelsene innebærer forpliktelser til å samle inn seismikk og bore letebrønner.
Section 3-1 of the Petroleum Act requires an opening process to be completed before any area on the Norwegian continental shelf may be formally opened for petroleum activity.
Før et område på norsk sokkel kan åpnes for petroleumsaktivitet må det, i henhold til petroleumslovens § 3-1, gjennomføres en åpningsprosess.
The Petroleum Act confers authority to conduct resource management, including opening processes, to the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy.
Petroleumsloven gir hjemmel for ressursforvaltningen, herunder igangsetting av åpningsprosesser.
The purpose of an opening process is to consider the technical basis for the Storting’s decision to open an area for petroleum activities.
En åpningsprosess har som formål å utrede det faglige grunnlaget for Stortingets beslutning om åpning.
The opening process consists of two parts.
En åpningsprosess består av to deler.
The report must contain an assessment of the anticipated commercial and environmental impacts of petroleum activity, the potential risk of pollution, and the economic and social effects of petroleum activity in the area.
Utredningen skal inneholde en vurdering av de nærings- og miljømessige virkninger av petroleumsvirksomheten, mulig fare for forurensninger samt økonomiske og sosiale virkninger av petroleumsvirksomhet i området.
The current impact assessment summarises the updated and extended knowledge base.

Norway to provide NOK 20 million for the effort against female genital mutilation
Norge gir 20 millioner kroner til kampen mot kjønnslemlestelse
International Development Minister Erik Solheim announced today that Norway will contribute NOK 20 million (appr. USD 3,5 million) to a fund to protect girls against genital mutilation in 16 countries.
Utviklingsminister Erik Solheim annonserte i dag at Norge vil bidra med 20 millioner kroner til et internasjonalt fond for å beskytte jenter mot omskjæring i 16 land.
The fund has recently been established by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF).
Fondet er nylig opprettet av FNs befolkningsfond (UNFPA) og FNs barnefond (UNICEF).
“Female genital mutilation is a brutal violation of women’s and children’s fundamental human rights.
– Kjønnslemlestelse er en brutal krenkelse av kvinner og barns grunnleggende menneskerettigheter.
According to the World Health Organization, some 6 000 girls are circumcised a day.
Ifølge Verdens helseorganisasjon omskjæres daglig cirka 6 000 jenter.
Through its support to the fund, Norway will contribute to dialogue with local and national authorities and religious leaders, to mobilisation of the media, and to local activities, research and capacity-building.
Gjennom støtten til fondet vil Norge bidra til dialog med lokale og nasjonale myndigheter og religiøse ledere, til å mobilisere media og støtte lokale aktiviteter, forskning og kapasitetsbygging.
“Legal protection against female genital mutilation is important, but experience shows that this alone is not enough.
- Juridisk beskyttelse mot kjønnslemlestelse er viktig, men erfaringen viser at dette alene ikke er nok.
This contribution to the UN fund entails a doubling of Norway’s international efforts to fight female genital mutiliation.
Med bidraget til FN-fondet dobler Norge innsatsen mot kjønnslemlestelse internasjonalt.
“The latest report from Norad (The Norwegian Agency for Development) shows that these efforts are working.
– Den nyeste rapporten fra Norad bekrefter at innsatsen nytter.
The number of girls circumcised has fallen in Tanzania and Kenya, and to some extent also in Ethiopia and Eritrea.
Antallet jenter som omskjæres går ned i Tanzania og Kenya, til dels også i Etiopia og Eritrea.
More information about the Norad report can be found on Norad’s website www.norad.no.
Mer informasjon om Norad-rapporten finnes på Norads nettsider www.norad.no.
