What began as a print bulletin during the pipeline era has grown into a full-scale publication — now reaching a global audience with stories from across Alaska’s five key industries: oil and gas, mining, fisheries, forestry, and tourism. As the Resource Development Council marks its 50th year , Alaska Resource Review continues to evolve, serving as a platform to inform, advocate, and inspire. Through in-depth reporting, industry insight, and a distinctly Alaskan perspective, we’re committed to telling the stories that matter to the state’s future.
