= public domain reference source in textual terms for extractive industries
Description
Johnny West:
OpenOil so far covers "15 countries in five languages now, under CC BY SA, using Mediawiki format with local CSO partners), we are working on putting contracts from the world's oil and mining industries into the commons with the necessary analysis to make them accessible for public debate ... We are co-developing a model to factor the effects of carbon pricing on revenue flows in oil producing countries as a way to alert them to the need to diversify their public finances and economic development away from hydrocarbons.
OpenOil was founded in late 2011 by Johnny West, and has since evolved into a consultancy, publishing house, training provider, transparency advocate and more. We began with a focus on the Middle East, but have since carried out projects and workshops in Colombia, Uganda, South Sudan and more, with (hopefully) Nigeria and Azerbaijan soon to come."
