The Last Alaskan Barrel
Author: John M. Miller
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780982878002
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
In The Last Alaskan Barrel, the author analyzes whether Arctic Alaskan North Slope oil was worth the investment risk for the companies and shareholders that risked billions of dollars to make it happen. His results challenge universally held beliefs about exorbitant profits in Alaska. The Last Alaskan Barrel begins with abridged histories of Alaska and the oil age leading to exploration of the Arctic. In 1969, a year after the dramatic discovery of large oil deposits near Prudhoe Bay, a White House Cabinet Task Force commissioned by President Richard Nixon claims the nation is swimming in cheap Alaskan crude. An updated federal study just two months before the start of production in summer 1977 contradicts the earlier White House Cabinet Task Force. Over the next decades, oil prices, development costs, and a variety of taxes shrink the size of the prize. The book concludes with a glimpse at future oil and natural gas potential in Arctic Alaska. Through a combination of extensive research and personal experience, John M. Miller provides facts to challenge opinion. This book is a first-of-its-kind case study that calculates the profit from the largest petroleum development in North American history and how it was shared among the state of Alaska, the federal government, and oil companies. Today, petroleum is coming from more remote, costly, challenging, and government-controlled sources worldwide. Understanding the fifty-year investment life of Alaska North Slope oil finally brings unemotional clarity to the complex world of petroleum economics.

Alaska Herring History
Author: James Mackovjak
Publisher: University of Alaska Press
ISBN: 1646423445
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
Alaska Herring History is a thoroughly researched, well-documented, and comprehensive chronicle of Alaska’s herring fisheries. Author James Mackovjak describes the evolution of these fisheries from the late nineteenth century to the present, including harvest, processing, markets, and sustained-yield management considerations. The book is divided into three parts based on the purposes for which herring have been harvested. Part I is a history of the reduction (fertilizer/fish meal/fish oil) and cured (salted) herring industries and the bait-herring fisheries; part II is a history of the roe-herring fisheries in Southeast Alaska, Prince William Sound, Kodiak Island, lower Cook Inlet, Togiak, and Norton Sound; and part III is a history of the herring spawn-on-kelp industry. Historical and contemporary photos and illustrations—as well as graphs and charts that help summarize the development and, in some cases, the demise of the fisheries—augment this detailed look at the evolution of Alaska's herring fisheries. Balancing scientific details, historical facts, and personal anecdotes from experts in the field, Alaska Herring History will be of interest to historians, social scientists, biologists, and fishery managers and makes an important contribution to Alaska fisheries literature.
