Abstract:

Knowledge managements (KM) increases the capability of organisations and companies in today's competitive environment. It is important that managers in petroleum companies proactively prepare their organisations and its members as they begin to implement KM systems. Then, as the first step, they should assess their organisations' readiness for KM implementation. Therefore, in this paper, we chose Iran as one of the main petroleum producers in the world to study the readiness of National Iranian Oil Company for KM implementation. A questionnaire survey was conducted in the company, based on stratified random sampling technique. The paper investigated the readiness of five variables including, management support, organisational culture, IT infrastructure, human resources and organisational structure for KM implementation in the company. Results revealed that the company lacked the necessary readiness to successfully implement KM. One way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) results indicated that there was a significant difference between the readiness levels of five KM variables. IT infrastructures and organisational structure were in higher readiness to implement KM in the company, followed by management support, human resources and organisational culture, respectively. Top management should plan to reduce weaknesses and implement a proper KM system in the company.

Abstract:

Under Australian offshore petroleum legislation, produced formation water (PFW) shall not be discharged into the sea unless there is an approved method. Where approval is granted, the concentration of petroleum in any PFW discharged to the sea shall not be greater than 50 mg/l at any one time and the average content over each 24 hour period shall be less than 30 mg/l unless otherwise approved.The introduction of the Commonwealth Petroleum (Submerged Lands) (Management of Environment) Regulations 1999 has changed the way PFW is regulated. The operation of a facility is defined under regulation 4 as a petroleum activity. Regulation 13(3) requires operators to assess the environmental effects and risks of a petroleum activity. The assessment of a facility operation should include the effects and risks associated with PFW discharge.This paper considers how these new requirements affect petroleum operators and what this means for existing and future production facility PFW management. Information is provided regarding assessment tools that are available to measure environmental effect and risk and attempts to describe their ecological relevance and role in decision-making.

Abstract:

The main approaches to planning activities for the management of waste spills, based on best practices, developed by oil and gas companies and associations, are analyzed. The problems of the accumulation and disposal of waste spills, the problems of preparing the waste for further disposal methods are indicated. The variety of spill waste does not allow to determine a universal way to manage this waste, therefore it seems necessary to develop a response and management strategy and include potential material resources for their disposal, equipment and technologies in the OSR plans, in order to avoid secondary pollution and minimize the cost of eliminating spills.

Full text

Abstract:

There is growing use of modern portfolio management methods that integrate risks, strategic goals and optimisation techniques to aid investment decision-making in the exploration and production industry. This modern approach consists of stages of analysis that include asset analysis, strategic goals definition and portfolio selection to maximise the probability of meeting the strategic goals. To date, most work in this area has focussed on the portfolio management requirements of oil and gas operators. However, the approach has the potential to help decision-making surrounding the management of the petroleum resources of a state. Specifically, we are investigating its potential to help set fiscal terms that encourage investment whilst meeting state goals. Indonesia’s petroleum resources are used to inform and provide data for the study. This paper presents the problems identified and solutions developed in performing the first step—describing, quantifying and modelling the uncertainty in the performance of the assets that comprise the portfolio. Due to the size and heterogeneity of the portfolio, we have chosen to characterise the assets into different types, rather than model each one individually. The main benefit of characterising the assets is to make the problem tractable, particularly when it comes to optimisation. Characterisation will also provide insight to decision-maker’s about the nature of the portfolio that may impact long-term planning and setting of targets. Whilst the approach taken is motivated by the specific needs of a nation’s portfolio, it is expected that the lessons learned will be of use to operators with similar characteristics—large, heterogeneous portfolios.

Abstract:

Petroleum refinery uses many catalysts such as hydroprocessing catalyst HPC, fluid catalytic cracking catalyst FCCC, reforming catalyst RC, etc. During the refining processes, the catalysts are deactivated; the spent catalysts are regarded as hazardous toxic materials due to heavy metals, coke, other poisonous compounds, and hydrocarbons. Huge amount of spent catalysts SC is generated which is expected to increase with expansion capacities of available refineries processes. This paper is reviewing the mechanisms of refining catalyst and the deactivation processes and focusing on spent catalysts management. Management of spent catalyst includes four main options; select the catalysts which reduce the generation of SC by switching to more environment friendly, longer lifetime and less toxic catalyst during the refining process; regenerate the SC; and precious metal recovery should be explored and reuse for other applications. The selection can be based on many factors such as safety, environment, mobility, etc.

Abstract:

Objectives:According to a revised version of the K-REACH, a registration grace period was granted for each recorded tonnage of toxic materials. At this time, 364 hazardous substances, such as carcinogens, mutagens, and agents that cause reproductive toxicity, were announced to be registered by 2021, even if the number of reported tonnage were low. Some petroleum stream substances were excluded from the list due to complications in identifying their compositions. Especially for petroleum UVCB substances, which have varying amounts of ingredients and contents.Methods:A list of domestic petroleum substances is made by researching petroleum substances regulated abroad. The status of domestic and foreign management of the substance was investigated and a method for determining the CMR of petroleum substances is suggested.Results and Discussion:A list of petroleum substances has been compiled. Five methods for CMR determination of petroleum substances, then the currently applicable method has been proposed.Conclusions:By preparing a list for the management of petroleum substances and criteria for CMR judgment, it is expected that even before the test data or epidemiological data of the relevant substance are secured, it can be used for safety management in advance by predicting the hazard.

Abstract:

Petroleum sludge is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons, water, metals, and suspended fine solids. The objective of this research was to develop a technique that will lead to the separation of phases ready for further reuse. A study was carried out to investigate a combination of various systems of electrokinetic cells, to which oily sludge, conditioning liquids, and different electrical potentials were applied. The developed electrokinetic phase separation is a new cost-effective technology, which in turn will permit the revitalization of petroleum sludge. This method can significantly reduce the amount of wasted sludge and can recover new fuels free of metals and water. Life cycle analysis of the recovered fuel shows that a new petroleum waste management protocol might reduce emissions of major greenhouse gases such as CO2, CH4, and N2O by 40 026 000, 1057, and 566 kg, respectively, per refinery per year.Key words: oily sludge, electrokinetics, fuel recovery, sustainable management, life cycle analysis.

Abstract:

Risk management is becoming an important management discipline for most organisations including petroleum, oil and gas companies. However, before risks can actually be managed, it is imperative to ensure that a risk management framework is embedded. This research aims to research the general approach to a risk management process for a typical petroleum, oil and gas company operating in the South African industry and to determine the primary risk types for such a company. The result of this research could serve as an awareness instrument for petroleum, oil and gas industries to support and establish an effective risk management process, while striving to achieve industry and economic objectives. Furthermore, to serve as a working platform for those companies that is still in early stages of developing a practical risk management solution.

Abstract:

Petroleum products are highly complex chemical mixtures consisting predominantly of hydrocarbons. Their composition varies with source and intended use of the product. Virtually all are blended products that come into contact with man in a wide range of circumstances. Their toxicity for man is generally low and the use of additives rarely affects the toxicity of the final product. Because products are blended to meet performance, and not chemical specifications, their composition varies significantly. Management of toxicity benefits from simplified guidelines that consider the product by its type. Management in most cases is symptomatic, but the doctor needs to be aware of the potential for development of sequelae such as aspiration pneumonia and central nervous system (CNS) depression. Local and systemic effects of exposure to hydrocarbons are reviewed, as are immediate assessment and recommended management of acute exposure to petroleum products. Because of the large scope of this subject, this paper limits itself to acute toxicity of petroleum products encountered inthe public domain. It does not address topics such as chronic toxicity, solvent abuse, petrochemicals, or pesticides.

Abstract:

The Australian petroleum exploration research program is customer-driven and reflects the balance between the need for the petroleum industry to reduce exploration risk in the short term and the government need to improve the perception of prospectivity in the longer term. Higher prospectivity will lead to greater exploration investment and competition, whereas risk-reduction will increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the exploration industry. Thus the objectives of the primary customers may be significantly different, with government intent on increasing the amount of investment and competition between explorers, whereas industry is intent on keeping expenditure to a minimum and maintaining competitive advantage. Despite the differences, collaboration between all groups involved in exploration and exploration-related research in Australia is essential to solve the range of exploration problems and generate new paradigms. Collaborative research ventures are most successful when new ideas stimulate explorer and researcher alike to focus resources on the key questions despite factors such as competitive advantage. Government geoscience researchers must play a significant role in generating and marketing new concepts to help maintain Australia's supply of domestic petroleum products.The scale of the petroleum research undertaken, and the degree of collaboration between industry and research groups in Australia, is remarkable. There is a productive balance between groups developing and applying new technology and those undertaking regional geological and petroleum systems research. This balance has been reached because of the long-term commitment by the Australian Government, via legislation and funding, to ensure the preservation of exploration data in national geoscience database systems, and that basic and applied research at all scales, from basins to wells, is undertaken in support of petroleum exploration and development.Despite the success of a number of collaborative research projects, research and development resources are still under-utilised by the Australian petroleum industry. Government research agencies must develop a higher marketing profile to ensure that the utilisation of the resources is at a maximum.

Abstract:

These Regulations have been proposed under the Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Resources Act 1967 to replace the existing Schedule of Onshore Petroleum Exploration and Production Requirements 1991 (Amended 21 May 2010). The Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP) is the agency that administers the regulations on behalf of the Minister and keeps the Minister informed of petroleum or geothermal energy resource activities. A draft was released on 5 April 2014 for public comment. The precise form and language of the proposed Regulations may change after public consultation, but the intent of the regulations will remain the same. The regulations will provide the framework for administration and compliance for petroleum field developments, geothermal energy projects, well construction and data submission and release. Activities are expected to be carried out in accordance with good oilfield practice and be compatible with the optimum long-term recovery of petroleum or geothermal energy. The Resource Management and Administration Regulations (RMA) have moved from a prescriptive type of regime to an objectives-based risk management regime requiring operators to manage their operations ensuring world’s leading practice and a fit-for-purpose design. It is expected that operators will apply the relevant standards appropriate for their activities. It is understood also that technology will change and that standards might be changed to embrace the new technology. It is this factor that makes objectives-based regulation more apt than prescription-based regulation. Another factor is that prescription is unlikely to cover every possible circumstance that might occur. The focus is on a whole-of-life approach to exploration and development, from an initial exploration process, through any well interventions all the way to final decommissioning. This includes requiring titleholders to consider what maintenance and monitoring programs will be in place throughout the life of wells and to be ready for eventual decommissioning. The DMP has a continuous improvement process which involves monitoring developments in regulation worldwide. Published papers on drilling, completion, hydraulic stimulation, cementing and production on both conventional reservoirs and also shale and tight sands have been, and continue to be, researched to ensure that the regulations cover all aspects of petroleum and geothermal resource development.

Abstract:

Uncertainty in petroleum development projects is most often associated with petroleum reserves. It is the limited amount of subsurface data typically available during the time of development planning that creates this situation. Risks are associated not only with reservoir uncertainty but also with wells and production facilities. Risks for offshore projects, as compared to those onshore, are further compounded by very large capital expenditures and less flexibility in catering for subsurface surprises, or remedial action in case of engineering blunders.These concepts are illustrated using case histories of successful and failed projects. Lessons learned from these and other projects are then summarised and processes for uncertainty and risk management are outlined. Risk and uncertainty cover a wide range of issues, and relate to geoscience, reservoir engineering, well technology, facilities engineering, operations, and project planning and evaluation.

Abstract:

This paper undertakes a five-year review of the management of oil revenues in Ghana since the commencement of oil production in 2010. Using reports from the Petroleum Transparency and Accountability Index, official records from key state agencies, and interviews with core individuals within the petroleum sector, the paper assesses the quality of transparency and accountability in the management of Ghana's oil revenue. It argues that even though some progress has been made in the transparent and accountable use of oil revenues, more can be achieved if certain critical bills are passed and proactive interventions pursued without further delay on the part of government and policymakers within Ghana's petroleum sector. These would help prevent both potential social conflict that may result from a lack of information on how oil revenues are utilised and the corrupt use of oil funds by politicians and people in authority within the oil industry.

Abstract:

In this paper, a model of cost management controlling system was established for implementation and supervision of strategic management in petroleum enterprise. Using this model, various controlling methods are divided into five grades under different strategies. Each grade is assigned a value by the expert scoring method, and the scores of cost management controlling system could be calculated. If the score is greater than zero, the cost management controlling system will have a positive effect on strategy; if the score is less than zero, it will have a negative effect on strategy. With the method proposed, the cost management evaluation of the fourth oil recovery company of Daqing Oilfield was carried out and the results were reasonable.

Abstract:

Purpose Due to the certain risk carried in offshore petroleum installations, the integrity of these installations needs to be maintained at all times. Thus, asset integrity management (AIM) needs to be formulated and monitored to achieve the integrity objective. The purpose of this paper is to study the practices and progression of strategic AIM planning in the petroleum industry. Design/methodology/approach The paper is written based on a literature study, observations and data collected from industry practitioners through an online questionnaire and interviews to study the AIM practices in their organization. Validation of the results is performed through respondents’ reviews and cross-referencing with existing literature and supplemental data. Findings The paper identifies, analyses and validates the work structure in formulating an AIM strategic plan. Research limitations/implications Even though the research focuses on the AIM practices of offshore petroleum installations, the result can be implemented in similar fields. Originality/value Researchers or practitioners can benefit from the knowledge gained of current practices and the presented work structure in establishing an AIM strategic plan.
