New Zealand is considering plans to allow seabed mining in its waters, which energy companies have said could delay growth in offshore wind by 50 years. What's going on? And will this argument be repeated in other countries that are considering their support for seabed mining, including Brazil, Germany, India, the UK and the US?

Seabed mining offers a unique US $20 trillion opportunity to extract critical minerals. A recent report by Arthur D. Little looks into the prospects of deep-water mineral development: https://lnkd.in/ejYhn3tY With land-based mining challenged by declining ore grades, stricter environmental regulations, and rising costs, seabed mining offers a chance to diversify portfolios and access higher-grade deposits. For oil and gas companies with offshore operations, their deep-water exploration, drilling, and infrastructure skills are directly applicable to seabed mining. In addition, it allows island countries like Tonga and Kiribati, secure access to and benefit from resource-rich areas in the Pacific Ocean. The International Marine Minerals Society (IMMS) has developed the Code for Environmental Management of Marine Mining, an internationally recognized framework for managing the environmental impacts of seabed development. #mining #seabed #criticalminerals #oilandgas #arthurdlittle
Is seabed mining the future of resource extraction? Thanks to technological advances, seabed mining is becoming commercially viable and may significantly bolster global supplies of materials for multiple green technologies. This creates strategic opportunities for governments, metals/mining companies, and oil/gas companies. However, there are concerns about potential environmental impact. In this Viewpoint, we therefore explore the economic potential and environmental impact of seabed mining as an alternative to traditional land-based mining.

#Mining accounts for 4-7% of direct global #greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. From reporting difficulties to implementation barriers, miners have cited various obstacles to #decarbonising their operations. Through research and interviews with 52 mining companies, dss⁺ uncovered the primary reasons why decarbonisation has posed challenges for mining companies. We have also compiled several recommendations for how miners can overcome these challenges. https://bit.ly/4fIZhhr
