Abstract:
The U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Kiobel v. Royal Dutch Petroleum Co. limits the potential of the Alien Tort Statute (ATS) as a means of legal redress for victims of human rights abuses caused by transnational companies. Interestingly enough, almost simultaneously with the Kiobel decision by the U.S. Supreme Court, a Dutch court issued its rulings in five cases concerning Nigerian individuals, supported by a Dutch environmental nongovernmental organization (NGO), in their claims against Royal Dutch Shell (RDS), headquartered in the Netherlands, and its Nigerian subsidiary, Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria, Ltd. (SPDC). These cases relate to oil spills for which the plaintiffs believed Shell should be held liable.

Abstract:
This study assessed the procedures and practices of Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria (SPDC) and Nigeria AGIP Oil Company (NAOC) in implementing their respective corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the development of host communities of Bayelsa state. The theoretical framework was derived from the social exchange theory, while the ex post facto research design was applied by employing multi-stage sampling technique, through survey questionnaires. It recorded a reliability index of 0.83. To achieve this, two research questions guided the study, with a sample size of 398 respondents drawn from twenty-four (24) host communities through multi-stage sampling techniques. Data were analysed with mean analysis and chi-square. It found that there was a significant relationship between the level of host community participation and the socio-economic life of the host communities in CSR of SPDC and NAOC on the sustainable development in Bayelsa State. It therefore recommended that SPDC/NAOC should invest a greater percentage of their profit on educational projects, adhere to the implementation of the Global Memorandum of Understanding (GMoU), the introduction of capacity-building programmes and full public participation by the host communities in the implementation of CRS activities.

Abstract:
This writing will focus on the impact on the impact of oil and gas development on the landscape, surface water and groundwater of the Niger Delta – while also assessing the various means of remediation in use. Geologically, the Niger Delta petroleum systems consist of Lower Cretaceous , Upper Cretaceous–lower Paleocene and Tertiary. When Nigeria became an independent nation on 1 October 1960, Shell–BP began to relinquish its acreage and its exploration licenses were converted into prospecting licenses that allowed development and production. The Federal Government of Nigeria started its Department of Petroleum Resources Inspectorate in 1970 and Nigeria joined the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries in 1971. – and in order to take control of the country’s petroleum industry, Nigeria nationalized BP’s holding completely in 1979, and Shell–BP became Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria. Oil spillages routinely occur in the Niger Delta. The official figures of SPDC show that between 1976 and 2001, 6,187 incidents in which 3 million barrels were spilled. The Niger Delta Environmental Survey An impact assessment of the 1983 Oshika oil spill. Spills of crude oil in Niger Delta farmlands have been reported since 1971. In general, toxicity depends on nature and type of crude oil , level of oil contamination, type of environment and degree of selective of individual organisms. Controlled burning effectively reduce the amount of oil in water, if done properly but it must be done in low wind and can cause air pollution. A principal target for emissions reduction is flaring and venting which causes most of the air pollution. Saltwater tanks can be often susceptible to lightning strikes due to build up in static electricity, with the spilled oil spreading to surrounding lands, waterways. This requires a secondary containment of the tanks that makes it easier to clean up the inevitable spill. In cases of expected major storms or flooding events, crude oil can be removed from tank batteries while refilling the tanks with saltwater to prevent them tipping over during the flooding event.

Abstract:
The case of Jonah Gbemre v. Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria Limited made a historic deviation from the usual trend of seeking monetary compensation by host communities in oil-rich regions in Nigeria. Rather, it seeks to correct regulatory shortcomings which were upheld by the court but never enforced. This article argues that the failure to enforce the judgment of the court is a missed opportunity to strengthen the environmental regulatory framework in the Nigerian oil and gas industry. It further argues that if the judgment had been enforced, it could have contributed to the reduction of the militant activities in the region and also encourages a significant change in the pattern of redress sought by litigants whose communities have been affected by the operations of oil multinational corporations in the region.

Abstract:
The study examined community members' participation in conferences organized by shell petroleum development company (SPDC) in Niger Delta, Nigeria. Purposive random sampling technique was used for the selection of 240 community members in SPDC host communities. The data for the study were collected through the use of questionnaire and were analysed using both descriptive (the mean) and inferential statistics (ANOVA). The result showed that impact assessment studies ( = 2.8), oil spillage clean-up process ( = 2.9), community-based pipeline surveillance ( = 3.1) and construction of inter-community roads ( = 3.0) were the various conferences community members participated in. The result further showed that SPDC is insensitive to the plight of community members ( = 3.8), SPDC uses incinerators to burn wastes; however, in the Niger Delta, the waste from spillage are deposited in a large trench ( = 3.6), instructional materials are not provided to schools in host communities by SPDC ( = 3.4) and scholarship from SPDC is not distributed equally among host communities ( = 3.4) were various perception of community members on SPDC environmental degradation impact management. The ANOVA result showed significant difference on the level of community member’s participation in conferences organized by SPDC in Niger Delta at P<0.05 level of significance. The study concluded that community member’s participated in conference organized by SPDC. Hence, there is need for SPDC to increase her scholarship programme and equally distributed among host communities. Beneficiaries’ names should be published on the print media and notice boards within the SPDC cluster communities.

Abstract:
Kiobel v. Royal Dutch Petroleum Co. involves an action under the Alien Tort Statute (ATS). The case was brought in the United States, Southern District of New York, by the widow of Dr. Barinem Kiobel, a Nigerian activist and member of the Ogoni tribe, and others for human rights violations committed in the Niger River Delta. Defendants include Royal Dutch Petroleum, Shell Transport and Trading Co., and Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria. Although the human rights violations including murder and torture were allegedly committed by the Nigerian military government, it is claimed that the Royal Dutch Petroleum defendants aided and abetted the Nigerian military in the human rights violations. The plaintiffs had engaged in protests about the environmental damage caused by the Royal Dutch Petroleum defendants in the area of the Niger Delta and the plight of the Ogoni people in Ogoniland. At the trial level, the court decided that certain claims involving violations of the Law of Nations could be heard by the court. However, the case was appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, which decided that there is a presumption against extraterritoriality in the application of the ATS, and that “mere presence” of a defendant corporation in the United States is insufficient for a court to assume jurisdiction. However, the question remains: What corporate presence would serve as a sufficient basis for a court to assume jurisdiction under the ATS? Given the possibility that corporations could, and perhaps in the future will, be found liable for human rights violations occurring in foreign locales even after Kiobel, prudent risk management behooves corporations and their counsel to monitor whether human rights violations are occurring in connection with their operations, even when those human rights violations are committed by foreign governments or their agents.

Abstract:
The study's objectives were to evaluate the level of variability in community people's awareness and knowledge of Chevron Nigeria Limited (CNL) Regional Development Councils (RDCs) and Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria (SPDC) Shell Cluster Development Boards (CDBs) and to determine whether the ascertained community people's awareness and knowledge have a significant impact on how well Multi-National Oil Corporations (MNOCs) development programmes are carried out in the host communities. Adopting the cross-sectional research design, the study surveyed 400 respondents from selected four states in the Niger Delta Oil Producing communities where RDCs and CDBs are operated. Descriptive statistics such as frequencies, means, and percentages were used to describe the socio-demographic information and the research questions. Inferential statistical tools like the One-Way Analysis of Variance and regression analysis had been used to take a look at the formulated hypotheses for the study. The findings indicate no relevant difference among community people in their state of awareness of the RDCs and CDBs but that the host community’s people poor involvement in the RDCs and CDBs resulted from inadequate requisite knowledge of the activities of MNOCs in their communities. The study recommended that every decision-making and taking process involve in project initiation, execution and implementation should involve the host communities in order to earn the people’s trust and respect.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Corporate social responsibility is a subject that is of concern to most companies that operate on a large scale today. This assignment looks at corporate social responsibility to understand how this fits into a company today. There is a short overview of the history to better understand the underlying factors and to determine the importance of corporate social responsibility. Attention is given to the argument that the current approach of companies to adhere to corporate social responsibility is because of pressure. There is also a focus on the relationship between business and society to establish how business can view its responsibilities. The example of Shell is used to show how a company under immense pressure can develop sustainable practices to ensure that they remain profitable. After the main discussion some important points are mentioned in the conclusion to clarify the business case for corporate social strategy.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Korporatiewe maatskaplike verantwoordelikheid is ‘n onderwerp wat van belang is vir meeste maatskappye wat grootskaals bedrywig is vandag. Hierdie opdrag ondersoek korporatiewe maatskaplike verantwoordelikheid om beter te verstaan hoe dit vandag in die maatskappy inpas. Daar is ‘n kort oorsig oor die geskiedenis om die onderliggende faktore beter te verstaan en om die belangrikheid van korporatiewe maatskaplike verantwoordelikheid te bepaal. Daar word ook aandag gegee aan die argument dat maatskappye verantwoordelik optree as gevolg van druk. Daar word ook gefokus op die verhouding tussen besigheid en die samelewing om te bepaal hoe besigheid sy verantwoordelikhede moet benader. Die voorbeeld van Shell word gebruik om te wys hoe ‘n maatskappy onder druk volhoubare gebruike kan ontwikkel om te verseker dat hulle winsgewend bly. Na die hoof bespreking word daar ‘n paar belangrike punte in die slotsom saamgevat om 'n besigheidsaak vir korporatiewe maatskaplike strategie uit te maak..

Abstract:
The distribution and privatization channels of the wealth from Niger Delta’s oil and gas resources are multiple. The main channels excessively favor mainly office holders, international entrepreneurs and their contractors. The rest of the population, or the less favored majority will have to cut their share of the wealth via the alternative channels which may include violent insurgencies. This work focuses on one of these alternative channels, where an Igbo community creatively sustain their access to the oil wealth. An ethnographic study of Egbema, shows that the local population modify their traditional practices to sustain the flow of the oil wealth. This modifying capacity was manifest when they creatively transformed a fishing festival that was traditionally celebrated exclusively, into a public fish bazaar. This was done to keep hold of the money received as compensation for the land expropriated for oil extraction by Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC). This has implications for corporate governance, especially with regard to the relationship between companies and other stakeholders.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The exploration and production of oil and gas mostly occurs in remote locations, so as to minimize human exposure and Health Security Safety and Environment (HSSE) risks. Shell Companies in Nigeria is not any different having operated for over 50 years in Nigeria with the largest footprint of all the international oil and gas companies operating in the country spanning over land, swamp, shallow waters and offshore terrains. Shell Petroleum Development Company, the operator of a joint venture (the SPDC JV) between the government-owned Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation – NNPC (55% share), Shell (30%), Total E&P Nigeria Ltd (10%) and the ENI subsidiary Agip Oil Company Limited (5%) focuses mostly on onshore and shallow water oil and gas production in the Niger Delta with about 60+ producing oil and gas fields and a network of approximately 5,000 kilometers of oil and gas pipelines and flow lines spread across the Niger Delta. Escravos Beach is over 60km from the closest major city, Warri, a major oil and gas zone in the Niger Delta. It is bounded by the Escravos River to the East, Chevron canal to the North and the Atlantic Ocean to the South and is covered with predominantly mangrove forest especially along the creeks and consists of a number of natural and man-made waterways (rivers, creeks and canals). Unlike most other onshore operations, this location can only be accessed via the waterways; thus requiring the rig equipment and every other equipment to be channeled via the waterways and subsequently on land to arrive at the site. The amphibious nature of this operation requires a combination of onshore and swamp requirements with increased HSSE exposure, logistics requirement and cost. This paper aims to highlight the practical experience garnered in the rig move and workover operations of Rig XYZ which operated in the Escravos Beach region.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper examines the concepts of environmentally sound technologies and sustainability. Environmentally sound technologies are potential ways capable of mitigating environmental pollution by adopting the use of energy efficient technologies. While sustainability is a process of change in which technological development and institutional change in which the exploitation of resource, the direction of investment, the orientation of technological development and institutional change are made consistent with future as well as present needs. In a broad sense sustainable development must enhance the long-term productivity of the resource base with acceptable environmental impacts. Using literature review and case studies of Britania U, a marginal oil field operator, Total Energy, and Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC). We find that environmentally sound technology can mitigate climate change. The study revealed that Britania used the technology which cleans out poisonous elements and emits smokeless air into the environment thereby mitigating climate change. Also, Total Energy, as part of its drive towards clean energy and reduce carbon emissions embarked on installation of solar energy while SPDC reported 17% decrease in routine flaring in 2020 due to the Southern Swamp Associated Gas Project which captured gas produced alongside oil in the Niger Delta. We find that environmentally sound technologies include all those technologies that reduce the negative impact of products and services on the natural environment. Furthermore, environmentally sound technologies have brought about increased opportunities for energy transition into cleaner forms of energy. We therefore recommend that developing countries try as much as possible to develop the internal capacities and embrace environmentally sound technologies to mitigate the negative consequences of climate change.

Abstract:
Abstract Till date, Nigeria is heavily dependent on revenue generated from oil and gas to finance its annual budget to provide public goods and services beneficial to its citizenry. The 2022 budget reflects that 31% of Federal government earnings will be result from oil and gas. Despite the push to diversify her economy, the stark reality remains that oil and gas sales is an influential factor to enabling economic development in Nigeria. More so, countries such as Saudi Arabia and Norway have utilized oil and gas wealth as the basis to invest in other sectors and promote diversification. However, Nigeria's goal of Energy security and economic development is likely not to be achieved as she battles with crude theft plaguing her ability to evacuate crude to her customers. Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) reported a loss of 470,000 bpd of crude amounting to an estimated 0.4 trillion naira monthly due to oil theft. The annualized estimate of 5.2 trillion-naira loss represents a staggering 30% of Nigeria's 2022 budget expenditure of 16 trillion naira. With other associated impacts to Nigeria, there is an imperative to deal and ultimately put an end to this looming menace. This study focused on addressing the crude oil theft through sustainable Host community engagement and development. A review of the factors promoting crude oil theft in Nigeria was performed. The study analyzed the production loss data over a decade and positively correlated it with economic development indicators such as poverty index, inflation, per capita income. The impact on the host community was studied. The results showed that the disenchantment of host communities (despite being key stakeholders in the oil and gas value chain) necessitated their little to no responsibility for protecting oil & gas assets and preventing the perpetration of crude oil theft. The study developed and proposed a "Host community development plan" which if administered with provisions already existing in the Petroleum Industry Act could revolutionize the Oil & gas industry by promoting increased ownership & fostering collaboration towards achieving Energy security & Economic development in Nigeria.

Abstract:
Abstract The Ubit Field is the largest producing asset in the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) – Mobil Producing Nigeria Unlimited (MPN) Joint Venture. The field has been on production for over three decades, with a YE 2007 cumulative production of 615 MBO. The predominant depletion mechanism has been gas-cap expansion, resulting in 25% decline in the original reservoir pressure of 2464 psi. Since discovery and first development, prudent Reservoir Management practices have been used to maximize resources while managing the challenges of this field. The challenges include complex geology; drainage of a thin oil column; well performance issues related to declining reservoir pressure and the absence of pressure maintenance and artificial lift. This paper reviews initiatives that have been adopted to optimize short to medium term production, and modeling efforts needed to underpin the longer term redevelopment programs aimed at boosting production and achieving world class recovery factor. Optimization efforts include: GOR/voidage management, workovers, slot additions for near-term drilling, wellbore cleanouts/stimulation, contact monitoring, swabbing, well/choke optimization, gas lift, improved completion practices / optimized horizontal well placement. These initiatives have mitigated base oil rate decline and resulted in reduced reservoir pressure decline. Other benefits include improved initial well rates at lower drawdown and higher expected per-well recoveries.
