Covering Oil: A Reporter’s Guide to Energy and Development
This guidebook, a collaborative work of the Open Society Institute’s Revenue Watch program and the Initiative for Policy Dialogue, aims to encourage rigorous reporting on the legal, economic, and environmental implications of resource extraction by providing practical information about the petroleum industry and the impact of resource wealth on a producing country. Covering Oil outlines the fundamentals of petroleum contracts, provides a glossary of relevant economic theory, and presents case studies of major public policy issues.

Download the full guidebook in English. Downloadable translations in French, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese and Bahasa Indonesia are also available from the Revenue Watch Institute website.
