Purpose This study aims to identify and assess the significant risks in Yemen oil and gas construction projects based on their risk rating (impact and probability) by using probability–impact matrix (PIM). Design/methodology/approach In total, 51 risk factors that might affect construction projects in the oil and gas sector are defined through a detailed literature review and expert judgment. The risk factors were tabulated in a questionnaire form, which was sent to a total of 400 participants asking their contribution in identifying the risk matrix for the risk factors in terms of impact and probability of occurrence during the project life cycle. Five zones were used in the matrix according to the degree of risk factor’s severity on the success of the project. These zones are light green, dark green, yellow, light red and dark red. Findings The PIM analysis for risk factors found that five factors are located in the dark red zone, as top risks factors have a very high impact and very high probability of occurring; 40 factors are located in the light red zone; six factors are located in the yellow zone; and no factors are located in the green zone (light and dark), which is considered an indication of the importance of risk factors under study and their impact on the success of construction projects in the oil and gas sector. Moreover, the factors under feasibility study and design and resources and material; are the most categories effect on project success. Research limitations/implications The research was limited to the oil and gas construction projects in Yemen. Practical implications Practically, this study highlights the top risk factors in oil and gas construction projects, which might cause an adverse effect on project success in Yemen. Classification and ranking of these factors by using the risk matrix provide the basis for risk response planning to enhance the chances of project success. Originality/value This paper identifies the matrix for risk factors affecting the success of construction projects in the oil and gas industry in Yemen. There is a significant contribution expected from this research, especially for companies operating in the oil and gas sector and other organizations that plan to invest in this field, in addition to expected benefits for the Yemeni Government and researchers because of lack of research in this area.

Foreign direct investment (FDI) is the engine of growth of all countries, contributing to the inflow of financial capital, technology, skills, employment, to the establishment of production of modern goods and services, which enables a national economy to become more competitive in the global market. However, the developing or transition countries often lack the capital to finance their own development. Analysis of 21 developed and developing oil-producing countries from 2008 to 2014 show that the most important factors for attracting investment in the oil and gas sector are the discovery of attractive fields, the creation of a developed and modern infrastructure, increases proven reserves of hydrocarbons, and of corruption. Less important but still factors are a stable currency, an open trade regime, favorable business conditions, as well as lower taxes on oil-producing business.

Dividend is the return given to the shareholders on investment made by them in company’s capital. It is paid in cash to shareholders out of companies’ profit and sometimes shareholders have an option to reinvest all or part of dividend in the company. Raising of fund for future growth and development of the significantly depend on Dividend Decision. Hence, the present study is an attempt to study the determinants of the Dividend decision. In the present paper, The impact of profit Before Tax, Assets and Long-Term Liabilities on Dividend Decision of the Public Oil and Gas Sector in India has been analysed in the present research work. Analysis for the period of 5 years i.e., 2015-16 to 2019-20 through a statistical model has been carried out. The regression and correlation techniques have been used to study the level of impact of the selected companies on the public sector of Oil and Gas Sector in India. The study found that 97% variation in the Dividend was because of a set of predictors and hence the Dividend can be predicted from a linear combination of factors affecting dividend decision i.e. PBT (Profit Before Tax), A (Assets) and L (Long-term Liabilities). It can be concluded that shareholders got an increase in Dividend with the increase in PBT. It means that shareholders got a higher return in the form of a Dividend on the fund provided by them because of increase in profits of the companies. It is observed that with the increase in Assets (means with the increase in the size of the business), correspondingly turnover and profit have increased and as a result, the return of the shareholders i.e. Dividend has also increased. On one hand, Long Term Liabilities have increased while on the other hand Dividend has also increased. It shows that the fund requirement for an increase in Assets (size of the business) has been met by the borrowed funds and equity shareholders got the benefit of Trading on Equity because the amount of Dividend has also increased

Objectives. The study aims to provide an original interpretation of methods of improving the tax administration of major taxpayers in the oil and gas sector applied at the present stage. Methods. I employ normative and holistic approaches to examine taxation efficiency in the oil and gas sector, general scientific and special methods of scientific cognition, i.e. retrospective, system analysis, observation, classification, instrumental methods of grouping, sampling, comparison and synthesis, as well as evolutionary and dynamic analysis. Results. I consider basic problems and solutions in the sphere of tax administration of major taxpayers of Russian oil and gas industries. The paper offers a package of measures and recommendations aimed at improving the efficiency of tax regulation, underpins the applied approach to tax administration of organizations operating in the oil and gas sector. Conclusions and Relevance. Our country needs a comprehensive program for tax administration of the entire technological cycle: from upstream operations to full-scale import substitution of consumer goods.
