The imperative to protect the global environment poses a number of problems for Gulf energy producers. Shortages of fresh water and protection of the Gulf ecosystem call for multilateral co-operation, but the Gulf states also have their own concerns about combining economic growth and resource management. This text brings together insights gained from an international seminar on the subject, held in Abu Dhabi in November 1998 by the Research and Studies Division of the Crown Prince Court, in association with the Royal Institute of International Affairs.
