Reconnaissance Visit to 17 Gbaran Communities Community Development (SCD) Transition Study
Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria - East
The reconnaissance visit was to facilitate SPDC’s negotiations on a new Memorandum of Understanding with 17 communities of the Gbaran Integrated Oil and Gas Project (IOGP) in Bayelsa State. SPDC’s Economic Empowerment (EE) proposed a programme for implementation in the communities based on community demands and reports on Participatory Rural Assessments (PRAs) conducted in the communities between 2001 and 2003. In the current MOU, community demands differ in some cases from the PRA reports, therefore, there was a need to carry out a reconnaissance visit to the communities to align the current demands and the PRA reports.
