A new study details how historically redlined neighborhoods across the US that scored lowest in racially discriminatory maps drawn by the government-sponsored Home-Owners Loan Corporation in the 1930s had twice the density of oil and gas wells than comparable neighborhoods that scored highest. The wells likely contribute to disproportionate pollution and related healt…

An incident at Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) resulted in an investigation that revealed that, even though required risk-reduction levels were achieved in design, the rest of the safety instrumentation life cycle phases were not rigorously adhered to. This paper presents various actions taken by PDO to make sure that what is designed is operated and maintained as in…
