This third edition covers the lessons learned from the global oil price downturn and the opportunities that are becoming available as commodity prices recover. The book also provides readers with a complete perspective of the country’s main energy projects and steps the government is taking to draw in more foreign investment. Due to a prospective upswing in oil and gas activity, Ghana’s offshore industry continues to expand, with capacities being renovated at the main ports of Tema and Takoradi. Meanwhile, companies continue bringing in new technologies to advance Ghana’s E&P and renewables potential as the country modernises. Moreover, Ghana’s downstream sector is hugely competitive. As Ghana works to promote investment in its oil and gas industry, surrounding sectors are being hit with massive changes. Ensuring the competence of next generations, major firms and universities have launched courses or research chairs in petroleum studies. Extensive in-depth analysis is supported by comprehensive maps, illustrations and graphs to create a market guide essential for players seeking to either expand their operations or enter the Ghanaian oil and gas market. 9781783021963 The Oil & Gas Year (TOGY), in partnership with Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) and the Ministry of Energy and Industry, proudly presents The Oil & Gas Year Abu Dhabi 2019. This eighth edition covers the emirate’s new comprehensive strategy – termed Oil and Gas 4.0 – and key investments as projects and partnerships begin to pick up pace. ADNOC made history in 2018 by opening its first bid round. The NOC is moving in the direction of becoming an IOC and in doing so has opened up Abu Dhabi to more collaboration with multinationals, including equity partnerships with BHGE, Eni and OMV. The strategy shows that the NOC knows that in order to meet its ambitious target of 5 million bopd by 2030, it will need to harness the power of collaboration over competition. Looking beyond the upstream, the edition touches upon major themes such as the regional competition to secure market share in petrochemicals, to which Abu Dhabi is responding by building what is slated to be the area’s largest integrated downstream facility at Ruwais. The edition also discusses digitisation drives being spearheaded in the UAE in the private and public sectors, as well as the introduction of new technologies such as inspection drones and digital twins. Extensive in-depth analysis is supported by comprehensive maps, illustrations and graphs to create a market guide essential for players seeking to either expand their operations in Abu Dhabi or enter this dynamic market.
Download or read book Iraq s Oil and Gas Industry written by Janan Al-Asady and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-13 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oil, an integral part of the contemporary global economy, is considered a driving force behind the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Hydrocarbon reserves in Iraq have a significant role to play in global supply, with oil revenue accounting for more than 90% of Iraqi government income. This book provides a comprehensive insight into the key foundations of Iraq's oil industry and assists in the development of a core area of domestic law to promote economic recovery following years of instability. It addresses the development of oil legislation and the formation of contracts since the US and allied occupation of Iraq in 2003. Legislation is assessed against the framework of the constitution along with the different types of oil agreements and their terms. The book looks at three main aspects of oil legislation, beginning with the validity and interpretation of the constitution as any subsequent legislation governing oil policy will be based upon this. The work then discusses whether the draft oil and gas law of 2007 and any subsequent oil legislation, including the law implemented by the Kurdish Regional Government in 2007, is valid. Finally, the book analyses the legitimacy of oil agreements entered into by the central and regional governments and whether these contain terms beneficial to the state and contracting party. Providing an in-depth analysis of the origins and development of the legal framework of the oil industry in Iraq, the book acts as both a reference source and a springboard for future research across a range of legal, economic and policy perspectives. It will appeal to practitioners and academics working in energy law and international investment law, as well as policy-makers, legal advisors and those working in governments and energy companies.
Download or read book Institutional Design and Capacity to Enhance Effective Governance of Oil and Gas Wealth The Case of Kurdistan Region written by Khazal Abdullah Auzer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a ‘critical reappraisal’ of the resource curse thesis and extends the analysis to consider political and social dimensions, and thus, the importance of structure in the petroleum sector’s governance model. It examines major challenges surrounding the governance of petroleum resources, and the implications for the economic growth and development of hydrocarbon-abundant countries as a result of ineffective economic, political, and social mechanisms. The book subsequently investigates a range of causal factors that may promote or hinder the effective management of oil and gas resources in the Kurdistan Region, which also has implications for the security of the wider region and for global energy security. The book also seeks to arrive at lessons learned and policy guidelines to help inform other new petroleum-exporting countries and regions about how to best manage their newfound wealth.

Download or read book Oil and National Identity in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq written by Alessandro Tinti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the interplay between the oil economy and identity politics using the Kurdistan Region of Iraq as a case study, this book tells the untold story of how extractivism in the Kurdish autonomous region is interwoven in a mosaic of territorial disputes, simmering ethnic tensions, dynastic rule, party allegiances, crony patronage, and divergent visions about nature. Since the ousting of Saddam Hussein, the de-facto borders of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq have repeatedly changed, with energy interests playing a major role in such processes of territorialisation. However, relatively little research exists on the topic. This book provides a timely, empirical analysis of the intersections between extractive industries, oil imaginaries, and identity formation in one of the most coveted energy frontiers worldwide. It shines a light on relations between the global production networks of petro-capitalism and extractive localities. Besides the strained federal relationship with the Iraqi central government, the transformative effects the petroleum industry has had on Kurdish society are also explored in depth. Moreover, the book fills a gap in the literature on Kurdish Studies, which has devoted scant attention to energy-related issues in the re-imagination of Kurdish self-determination. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of the extractive industries, energy studies, conflict studies, Middle Eastern politics, and political ecology.

Download or read book The Great Betrayal written by David L. Phillips and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-29 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twentieth century saw dramatic changes in the once Kurd-dominated Kirkuk region of Iraq. Despite having repeatedly relied on the Kurdish population of Iraq for military support, on three occasions the United States have abandoned their supposed allies in Kirkuk. The Great Betrayal provides a political and diplomatic history of the Kirkuk region and its international relations from the 1920s to the present day. Based on first-hand interviews and previously unseen sources, it provides an accessible account of a region at the very heart of America's foreign policy priorities in the Middle East. In September 2017, Iraqi Kurdistan held an independence referendum, intended to be a starting point on negotiations with the Iraqi Government in Baghdad on the terms of a friendly divorce. Though the US, Turkey, and Iran opposed it, the referendum passed with 93% of the vote. Rather than negotiate, Iraq's Prime Minister Heider al-Abadi issued an ultimatum and then attacked the region. Iraq's Kurdish population have been abandoned, once again, by their supposed allies in the US. In this book, David L. Phillips reveals the failings of America's policies towards Kirkuk and the devastating effects of betraying an ally.

Download or read book Oil and Gas in the Disputed Kurdish Territories written by Rex J. Zedalis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-16 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the historical and contextual background to the oil and gas resources in the Kurdish territories, placing particular emphasis on the reserves situated in the disputed provinces. The volume is singularly unique in focusing on an examination of the rules reflected in both the national and the regional constitutional, legislative, and contractual measures and documents relevant to the question of whether the central government in Baghdad or the Kurdish Regional Government (KRG) in Erbil has a stronger claim to legal control over the oil and gas resources in the disputed Kurdish territories. As a subsidiary focus, the author also draws attention to how the basic thrust of the volume connects to broader jurisprudential issues regarding the nature and purpose of law, the matter of claims by native peoples to natural resources on traditional lands, and the place of regional minorities operating in a federal system. Since the law examined is domestic or municipal in origin, additional reference is made to the role that such law can play in the "bottom up" (as opposed to more conventional "top down") development of international law. The book’s opening chapters provide a valuable contextual introduction, followed by a number of substantive chapters providing an analytical and critical assessment of the controlling legal rules. Written in a scholarly, yet accessible style, and covering matters of basic importance to academics, lawyers, political scientists, government representatives, and students of energy and natural resources, as well as those of developing legal structures, Oil and Gas in the Disputed Kurdish Territories is an essential addition to any collection.
