It has recently been announced by the Minister of Economy, Roch Pinchon, that the Corriveau Plan, also known as the Plan for Investments into Extraction of Ores and Resources of Rildanor, will begin implementation. The Corriveau Plan, named after its spiritual father and main proponent Guillaume Corriveau, is a series of planned economic investments and decisions pursued in order to strengthen Rildanors economic independence by investing into exploitation of Durfart Sea oil, and further extraction of Beryllium in Montpellier.

In line with the plan, a state-owned company, Société nationale d'extraction des ressources (Luth.: National Resource Extraction Company), is to be created to oversee operations in Odufart Sea and Montpellier related to the extraction of vital resources. It is estimated that the amount of oil extracted will not be sufficient for export, but it will cover a significant demand in Rildanor itself. Meanwhile, the potential of beryllium, which has been explored only in a limited capacity, could offer significant support to Rildanor's aviation and electronic industries due to its numerous uses in these sectors.

There are, however, a number of concerns regarding the venture, with some experts expressing reservations about the SNER's experience. In addition, activists have voiced their opposition, citing concerns about safety and environmental impact. It has also been suggested by several foreign policy experts that the Corriveau Plan could potentially create a rift between Rildanor and its closest economic partner, Kanjor, who have until recently been one of the main partners in the Dufart Sea extraction operations.
