Abstract The objective of the study was to examine the assertion that marginal oil field development remains one of the economic fortunes of Niger Delta region in Nigeria. This is evident with its shares in the region power output as well as its contribution to the industrialization. Multiple case studies of marginal oil field operations corroborate the relationship between marginal field development and economic fortunes of Niger Delta region. Marginal field firms provide electricity to the host communities where they operate. Also, industries are fed with natural gas from marginal field operating in the region. The marginal field operators ensures that host communities are getting electricity. Also cement factory is fed from natural gas operating in the area. However, the management of marginal field resources has been far from being optimally beneficial. The real issue is how to manage the marginal field for the welfare of the people. Against this background, the study findings suggested that the country marginal field wealth be used to implement people-oriented programmes for better welfare spread.

Abstract Extant literature strongly suggest that marginal oil field operators are vital to economic growth and social development. The conjecture is that marginal field operators need to be nimble and innovative in order to survive, and this form the basic premise for this study. The objective of the study is to investigate the role of innovation as one of the success factors formarginal oil field development in Niger Delta region. The study methodology involved literature review and multiple level case study of operating marginal fields which demonstrated that innovation can bring about efficiency and cost reduction. The innovation facilitates the utilization of competitiveness and cluster system to transform the marginal field development to wealth creation. The study among other recommends that the Niger Delta region should be given urgent attention for the development of comprehensive infrastructure in order to transform the marginal field development into competitive oil and gas business.

Abstract Marginal oil field operators have been bedeviled by several challenges since its inception, among which are financial, technological, socio-political, ecological and environmental issues. The study examined how marginal oil field operating in Niger Delta region of Nigeria could integrate and incorporate environmental accounting for managing the environmental performance of their businesses efficiently. Using literature review and case study, the study revealed that at present, environmental accounting is gradually being implemented worldwide. It is the duty of companies to apply environmental accounting to the lives of individuals. The study summarizes some key points regarding environmental accounting, the introduction of environmental accounting in some countries around the world and demonstrates some challenges in our country's application of environmental accounting to provide some solutions to boost the application of environmental accounting to marginal oil field operators in Niger Delta. The study recommends that environmental accounting will enhance the operations of marginal oil field in Niger Delta region.
