支持者希望能在阿拉斯加野保區進行石油開採(圖片來源:FWS)美國參議院能源委員會主席12日表示,英國石油公司位於阿拉斯加北坡油田的油管鏽蝕事件,恐怕對未來在北極圈國家野生動物保護區內開採石油的進程,埋下深遠的變數。委員會主席多梅尼契(Pete Domenici)指出,此次難容大錯的事件,迫使石油巨人於阿拉斯加的部分作業停擺,並且已損害產業的公眾信賴,甚至可能導致極地野保區開採一案,在國會中的努力付之一炬。

BP’s Alaska Problems Could Hamper Effort to Open Arctic Refuge
ASHIONTON, DC, September 13, 2006 (ENS)
British Petroleum’s problems with pipeline corrosion at its oil field on Alaska’s North Slope could jeopardize future efforts to allow drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, the chair of the Senate Energy Committee said Tuesday. The “inexcusable” events that forced the oil giant to partially shut down operations in Alaska have damaged the public’s trust in the industry, said committee chair Pete Domenici, and could translate into less support in Congress for opening the Arctic refuge.
