Environmental researcher Rob Parker is calling for greater transparency from Canadian oil exploration company ReconAfrica over its latest drilling activities in northern Namibia. According to Parker, these fluids form a chemical waste stream that requires proper handling and disposal. He also raised concerns about the company’s plans for further testing and the possibility of a horizontal sidetrack at the well, saying such technology is often associated with unconventional oil and gas development. ReconAfrica has previously said its exploration activities are conducted in line with Namibia’s environmental regulations.
