Cessation of Production was approved by the Oil and Gas Authority in December 2016. This Environmental Impact Assessment has been prepared to support the Guinevere Installation Decommissioning Programme. The infrastructure which is included within the scope of the Guinevere Decommissioning Programme is summarised below: One (1) platform topside; One (1) four-legged jacket and four (4) piles; and Two (2) platform wells (48/17b-G1, 44/17b-G2). Anticipated It is currently envisioned that decommissioning activities will commence during Commencement of late Q3 2018 and last for up to four years (although activities will not take Works concurrently during this period). Previously Submitted None Environmental Documents Significant Following the identification of the interactions between the proposed Environmental Guinevere decommissioning activities and the local environment, the Impacts Identified assessment of all potentially significant environmental impacts, and key environmental concerns identified as requiring consideration for impact assessment were investigated under the scope of the following: Energy use and atmospheric emissions; Underwater noise; Seabed impacts; Societal impacts; and Accidental events. PUK have, or intend to put in place sufficient safeguards to mitigate the potential environmental and societal risk and to monitor the implementation of these measures, a programme of which will be agreed with the Regulator.

It was carried out by a consortium of nine institutional partners, led by the Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute (AFBI), between August 2013 and March 2015. The MSFD requires the establishment of a series of environmental targets and associated indicators, and the establishment and implementation of a monitoring programme for ongoing assessment of the marine regions for which member states are responsible.

Phytoplankton samples were collected from 5 different locations from the study area. Chaetoceros lorenzianus was found only at one station collected after Tasman Spirit Oil Spill. Moreover morphometric measurements of present record showed narrow range as compared to the records investigated by other workers.

[Cite as: Tabassum A, Baig H & Rehman A (2016) Morphological characters of Chaetoceros lorenzianus (Bacillariophyceae) isolated from North Arabian Sea after Tasman Spirit oil spill. Tropical Plant Research 3(3): 558–563] INTRODUCTION Phytoplankton are the major primary producers of marine and fresh water environment (Baliarsingh et al. 2012). Among phytoplankton, the Bacillariophyta (diatoms) contributes at least 40% of the global annual primary productivity (Field et al. 1998). These diatoms are ubiquitous occurrence in marine environment (Sunesen et al. 2008). Genus Chaetoceros Ehrenberg is considered as most diverse and wide spread centric diatom (Cupp 1943, Rines 1999, Hasle & Syvertsen 1997).
