This report aims to use data from project documents published by companies to assess the potential cumulative impacts of offshore oil and gas production in the Arafura and Timor Seas and how they are currently being addressed in these documents, using three projects a case studies.

We discovered there are likely many more significant impacts than are currently understood by either the companies or the government bodies responsible for regulating the industry. While the total impacts remain unkown, there should be no further development of oil and gas, and governments and companies must be required to consult with all potentially impacted people, including those in neighbouring countries.
