Seeing like an oil company’s CHM programme: Exxon and archaeology on the Chad Export Project
Abstract
James Ferguson’s 2005 article ‘Seeing Like an Oil Company’ powerfully described the development of resource-extraction enclaves in African states, and the complex landscape of globally integrated and excluded territories that such enclaves produce. In this article I discuss the experience of doing cultural heritage management within one such enclave: the patchwork of protected camps, rights-of-way and air-conditioned Land-Cruisers associated with the Chad Export Project and oil production in southwestern Chad, one of the poorest countries on Earth. I will particularly examine the relationships between such ‘CHM enclaves’ and the development of national archaeological capabilities in African countries.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
