Abstract:

Since 1975 The State of Qatar has assumed full responsibility for the operation and management of its hydrocarbon resources. Economic development to-date has been largely funded by revenues generated from crude oil reserves. However the declining crude oil reserve base in Qatar has been offset by the possession of the largest, proven non-associated gas field in the world. Thus further long-term economic development in Qatar is dependent on the successful exploitation of these natural gas reserves. The State of Qatar through its state-owned corporations has been faced with the appraisal, manage

Abstract:

The UK sector of the North Sea is a mature oil and gas basin subjected to some of the harshest offshore environments with a majority of the oil and gas installations approaching or having exceeded their original design life, often specified as 25 years. It is likely that the operation of these installations will continue for a substantial period in the foreseeable future. However, the ageing nature of these installations present significant challenges to the delivery of high standards of health and safety required by the UK Health and Safety Executive. The issue of ageing installations has bee

This study attempts to resolve two important issues. First, it investigates the diversification benefit of crude oil for equities. Second, it examines whether or not crude oil derivatives transactions by oil and gas producers can change shareholders' wealth. With these two major goals in mind, I study the risk and return profile of crude oil, the value effect of crude oil derivatives transactions, and the systematic risk exposure effect of crude oil derivatives transactions. In contrast with previous studies, this study applies the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (GSCI) methodology to measure th

Abstract:

Produced water handling has been an issue of concern for oil and gas producers as it is one of the major factors that cause abandonment of the producing well. The development of effective produced water management strategies poses a big challenge to the oil and gas industry today. The conversion of produced water into irrigation or fresh water provides a cost effective tool to handle excessive amounts of the produced water. In this research we proposed on-site produced water treatment units configured to achieve maximum processing throughput. We studied various advanced separation techniques t

Abstract:

Oil and gas industry operations place large pressures on the local environment and inhabitants. However, the continued rise in the demand for useable energy and resources has resulted in further production pressures for oil and gas companies. Meeting these demands comes with high risks and costs to both society and the environment. Oil and gas companies are thus faced with the challenge of meeting the world’s expanding energy demands while minimizing the negative externalities associated with these operations. Many of the risks these corporations face are site specific, requiring detailed back

Abstract:

The Norwegian oil and gas industry has a highly collaborative, but at the same highly competitive nature. Most of the daily oil and gas production takes place on the Norwegian continental shelf in the North Sea. The production facilities are expensive to develop and maintain, and it is therefore necessary to take advantage of new and innovative solutions; both above and beneath the sea surface. Close collaboration between the operators and the contractors1 is needed. At the same time these companies can be strict competitors in other projects. Information security is thus essential; only infor

International bodies and networks within occupational health and occupational health psychology have over the last years highlighted a pressing need to understand how research and best practices can be translated into sustainable business practice.

Stakeholder management relates to how business organisations manage their relationships not only with their market stakeholders, but also with their nonmarket stakeholders. It requires firms and business managers to identify and develop effective strategies to balance the interests of many diverse groups or constituents. This requirement has of course been judged to be impractical by those who uphold narrow traditional views about how a firm operates; and is unsupported by those who believe that asking managers to focus on the interests or concerns of groups of constituents that do not directl

Abstract:

The development of the offshore oil and gas industry has been going on for many decades with little thought of the consequences of its activities on the environment. However, in recent years, there has been a clamour by the international community to protect the marine environment from further degradation. Many global, regional and national laws have been made to that effect and some of these laws deal with the offshore oil and gas industry. One area that seems to be deficient in these laws is the management of wastes generated from operational activities of the offshore oil and gas industry e

They occasionally apply techniques for controlling projects, and often lack a practical understanding of recently developed techniques.

Abstract:

The established approach to safety management has failed to handle socio-technical systems that have become more complex. The main argument is this approach is based on assumptions that systems are protected against accidents by barriers (well-trained people, redundant mechanisms and safety devices, and procedures and safe systems of work). Complex systems, such as maintenance, are actually labour intensive; maintenance staff often works under pressure to finish tasks as rapidly as possible.

Abstract:

The global demand for energy has been predicted to rise by 56% between 2010 and 2040 due to industrialization and population growth. This continuous rise in energy demand has consequently prompted oil and gas firms to shift activities from onshore oil fields to tougher terrains such as shallow, deep, ultra-deep and arctic fields. Operations in these domains often require deployment of unconventional subsea assets and technology. Subsea assets when installed offshore are super-bombarded by marine elements and human factors which increase the risk of failure. Whilst many risk standards, asset in
