“…The pollution of aquatic ecosystems with crude oil and other petroleum products suppresses the major functions of the fauna and flora and makes the water hazardous for drinking (Barenboim et al, 2015). It has also led to the destruction of fish habitats in the mangroves of the Niger Delta and high levels of contamination of the swamps and rivers making them unsuitable for fishing (Moses and Tami, 2014).…”

The local refining of crude oil has become a lucrative but disturbing business in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. Deep inside the forest of the Niger Delta camps are built and used for the local refining of crude oil. The economic benefits this brings to the refiners are clear, however the host communities are severely hit by the activities of the 'local crude oil refiners'. Farmlands have been destroyed and fishing settlements evacuated as a result of pollution of the rivers and estuaries, with loss of lives and properties. This research investigates the impact of the activities of the local refiners on their host communities' farmlands, rivers and estuaries. A quantitative research method was adopted in this study through the administration of questionnaires to local stakeholders (chiefs, the youth, farmers, traders, fishermen/fisherwomen and residents of affected communities). Quantitative data was collected from three communities in the Niger Delta with local refineries and the data was analysed using descriptive and inferential (Chi Square and Correlation) methods. The study demonstrates the high impact of the activities of the refiners on farmlands and fishing areas of the host communities and makes recommendations to all stakeholders in the upstream and downstream sectors of the petroleum industry. In addition, recommendations are made to the Nigerian government, on ways to address the impact of local refining on host communities.

“…These problems have caused serious rebellion among some of the locals in the Niger Delta region. The result is, braking the pipelines, siphoning crude oil and refining crude locally in the regions (Barenboim, Borisov, Golosov & Saveca, 2015), albeit with many health and environmental challenges.…”

Nigeria discovered crude oil in 1956. Instead of making sustainable economic progress since, the country spiraled into serious economic waste and loss, due to pollution from crude oil, corruption, neglect of the oil producing regions and high handedness of the IOCs/NOCs. Today, not only are legitimate oil exploration pipelines leaking oil into the environment, illegal artisanal refineries are contributing to pollution problems and by extension economic and health effects. This study thus investigated, effects of artisanal refinery on the environment, public health and socio-economic development of communities in the Niger Delta Region. The cross-sectional research design was used in this study. The target population comprised of illegal bunkering/artisanal refining sites and households that dwell within the artisanal refinery sites. The Taro Yamane formula was used to determine the sample sizes for state and 400 was realized for each state. 1324 artisanal refining sites were determined and using Taro Yamane equation 313 sites were derived. The Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for data analysis. The study found that, locals complained about how artisanal refineries affected their environment, health and economics. These effects varied spatially based on the result of the Kruskal Wallis test at P<0.05. However, some of the locals identified that, despite the environmental pollution because of illegal artisanal refining in the area, some economic gains abound. It is therefore the position of this study that artisanal refining be improved, so that the environmental and health effects be reduced, while making room for sustainable economic development.

Pasaules akvatoriju piesārņojums ar naftas produktiem ir viena no aktuālākajām mūsdienu ekoloģiskajām problēmām. Ņemot vērā nacionālo tautsaimniecības attīstības programmu, kas paredz ostu kravas apgrozījuma palielināšanu, naftas produktu pārvadājumu apjoma palielināšanu, cīņas pret jūras akvatorijas naftas un naftas produktu piesārņojumu problēma ir viena no prioritārām arī Latvijai.Tālvadības gaisa kuģu izmantošanai ir virkne priekšrocību: pacelšanās un nosēšanās iespēja, neizmantojot lidlauku, zema cena, zemas ekspluatācijas izmaksas, riska neesamība pilotam un iespēja izmantot pusautomātisko vai automātisko vadības sistēmu.Promocijas darbs sastāv no četrām nodaļām, pirmajā nodaļā noformulēti naftas piesārņojuma monitoringa ar attālo zondēšanu galvenie uzdevumi un problēmas. Pētījuma gaitā tika izstrādāts TGK optimālo lidojuma maršrutu monitoringa laikā sastādīšanas procedūras matemātiskais modelis. Promocijas darbā tika izstrādāta jauna un augsti efektīva jūras akvatorija naftas piesārņojuma monitoringa metodoloģija, kas dod iespēju noteikt naftas piesārņojuma raksturojumus. Tika izstrādāts naftas plankuma izplatīšanas uz ūdens virsmas matemātiskais modelis. Ceturtāja nodaļa tika izstrādātas ūdens provju ņemšanas ar TGK palīdzību tehnoloģija un speciālā ierīce jūras akvatorijas ūdens provju ņemšanai no tālvadības gaisa kuģa borta.Par darba rezultātiem ziņots 5 starptautiskajās zinātniskajās konferencēs. Darba rezultāti publicēti 6 zinātniskos rakstos un ir iesniegts 1 starptautiskais patents.Darbā ir ievads, 4 nodaļas ar apakšnodaļām, secinājumi, 3 pielikumi, 38 attēli, 11 tabulas.Kopā darbā ir 137 lappusēs. Tika izmantots 59 literārais avots.
