SRK Consulting: Project No: 439414 Staatsolie Pipeline EIA – Draft EIA Report Page 1 1 Introduction 1.1 Background of the project Staatsolie Maatschappij Suriname N.V. (Staatsolie) was founded more than 30 years ago on 13 December 1980. The Republic of Suriname is the sole shareholder. The company explores, produces and refines crude oil. By the end of 2011, more than 1400 oil wells were in production and annual crude production totalled some 5.9 million barrels (bbl) (some 16 000 bbl per day). Staatsolie’s oil refinery is located at Tout Lui Faut, about 7 km south of Paramaribo in the Wanica District of Suriname. The refinery site is situated between the Suriname River and Sir Winston Churchill Road. Staatsolie is currently in the process of expanding the refinery to increase processing capacity. As part of the refinery expansion, Staatsolie proposes to construct three new pipelines to convey Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) from OGANE to the refinery and to take diesel and gasoline from the refinery to the SOL and Suritex 1 product storage depots. SRK Consulting (South Africa) (Pty) Ltd (SRK) has been appointed by Staatsolie as independent consultants to undertake the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process for the proposed pipelines as required by the Draft Environmental Act of 2002 and the Environmental Assessment Guidelines (August 2009) issued by the National Institute for Environment and Development in Suriname (Nationaal Instituut voor Milieu en Ontwikkeling in Suriname - NIMOS). 1.2 Purpose of this Document The main purposes of this Draft EIA Report are to: • Describe the proposed project and viable project alternatives; • Inform stakeholders about the findings of specialist studies and input; • Identify and assess significant impacts associated with the proposed project; • Report on proposed mitigation measures to minimise impacts and enhance benefits; • Provide an overview of (environmental) management plans to be implemented during the construction, operation and closure phases of the proposed project; and • Elicit comments from stakeholders that will inform the Final EIA Report. The guiding principles adopted and activities undertaken to ensure that the goals of the EIA Report were met are discussed in the following section. 1.3 Assumptions and limitations As is standard practice, the Draft EIA Report is based on a number of assumptions and is subject to certain limitations, which should be borne in mind when considering information presented in this report. SRK is confident that these assumptions and limitations do not compromise the integrity of the EIA Report. Relevant limitations and assumptions are listed below. Limitations and assumptions that apply specific aspects are also listed in the relevant sections. • Staatsolie engaged key stakeholders prior to the compilation of the Study Plan. Comments and concerns of stakeholders were incorporated into the Study Plan; 1 Staatsolie has acquired the Chevron Corporation in Suriname and, as of 1 September 2011, manages its 20 service stations, four fuel bunker stations and the depot under the “Suritex” brand. As such, the depot will be referred to as the ‘Suritex depot’ in this report. REUT/DALC 439414_StaatsoliePipelineEIA_Draft EIA Report_Final June 2012
