"Blackstars Energy Armenia" LLC intends to prospect oil and
gas in the littoral areas of Sevan. Now the Nature Protection
Ministry is conducting environmental expertise of the oil and gas
geological prospecting claim in the conditional areas of Armenia. The
geoprospecting areas will include villages dealing with fishing -
Hyaravanq, Tsaghkashen and Noraduz.
The company intends to conduct geological mapping and geochemical
studies, seismic investigation and to drill one well, and an individual
claim shall be submitted for expertise.
Under the claim, the works will be carried out in 2015-2016. The
total costs of the studies will account for US$ 11,000,000.
The company has submitted several documents for expertise, among which
"Policy on Preservation of Environment, Health and Safety". This
document doesn't have an EIA and has descriptive nature.
It's interesting how "Environmental Expertise" SNCO of Nature
Protection Ministry will respond to this claim, which contains only
good wishes instead of EIA.
