MIT Mission 2007 Team e: Exploration and Production Strategy
Our team goals:
The union of teams two and three ("team e") plans to research, develop,
and present a hydrocarbon exploration and production strategy that is complete,
detailed, creative, and feasible and which seeks to optimally balance environmental
impact with economic gain. By complete we mean a hydrocarbon procurement
strategy that traces hydrocarbon resources through every phase of their development
within ANWR, specifically addressing a) the location of recoverable hydrocarbon
resources in the 1002 region, b) the delivery of those resources to the
surface, and c) the transportation of recovered hydrocarbons out of ANWR,
all the while d) taking into account all necessary set-up, equipment, labor,
transport, byproducts, clean-up, restoration, and other essential processes
related to the logistics of hydrocarbon development and the mitigation of
environmental impact. Our final product must include explanations for design
choices we made along the way and defend such decisions with research into
multiple methods and our analyses of them. In order to fully succeed in the
project, we must engage in productive critical exchange with the related Mission
2007 teams in a valiant effort to reach the best possible design.
Previously, hydrocarbon exploration and production strategies were assigned
to two separate teams. However, early on, our two teams realized that
certain parts of exploration and production are inseparable. We therefore
merged to become Team e (2.71828182846...).
