I compliment the authors on the direction they take in looking to evaluate the competitive streams of developing the oil and gas fields. GIS mapping is the way to make connections, integrating the various profiles in a way that can provide dimension of competitive change.
I suggest greater detail is required on the levels of technology applied in the developments, and any reference to avoidence protocols. I also suggest we need biological evidence of biodiversity and species well being. Only such reference will validate the conclusions that are sought. Wonderful project... so much more needed.
