Former EPA Head Vincent Adams is insisting that ExxonMobil’s flaring of gas amid a compressor problem on its oil platform is in breach of its production permit and he said that the government has to be better informed so that it could enforce the law.
In an interview with Stabroek News, Adams also called for an independent check to be done of the compressor problem aboard the Liza-1 Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) platform and called for national unity on environmental and safety matters in the oil and gas industry as in the case of border matters.
