The Capital Structure

Subject. The article addresses the capital structure of Russian oil and gas companies and key factors, influencing the equity to debt ratio. Objectives. The paper aims at the comprehensive review of the capital structure of Russia's largest oil and gas companies from 2010 to 2019, revealing the significant factors of its formation and transformation, assesses the impact of sanctions, imposed on Russia, on the equity to debt ratio in the oil and gas industry. Methods. The study rests on the combination of methods of scientific knowledge and financial, economic, and econometric analysis of panel data with fixed and random effects. Results. We unveil patterns of changes in the equity to debt ratio at the level of the oil and gas industry as a whole and with differentiation for individual companies, for 2010–2019. The econometric models that were built and tested based on panel data enabled to establish functional relevance and identify a set of significant factors, which included the company size, profitability of equity, and revenue from international supplies. Conclusions. Based on the findings, in the future, it is advisable to expand the list of possible factors influencing the capital structure, by adding all sorts of risks, conditions and sources of attraction of both the debt capital and equity, and the specifics of company operation. The determination of the optimal debt-to-equity ratio for the largest oil and gas companies in Russia, taking into account individual economic, management, and strategic characteristics, can be a separate component of the study.

Sector Data

The post conference of Time Life Corp in Geneva and the enactment of the Foreign Investment Act of 1967, foreign corporations began to exploit oil and gas in Indonesia. At first, the foreign corporation only managed the upstream oil and gas business. However, the oil and gas Act number 22 of 2001 made the foreign corporations do the business in the downstream sector. Data from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral showed that there was 69.9 percent of foreign domination in the Indonesian oil and gas industry. Other data showed that the value of exports of oil and gas in Indonesia decreased by the end of July 2013. The existence of these two phenomena of economic resources made the author try to examine the relation between the ownership of oil and gas blocks by foreign companies and the level of oil and gas export value in Indonesia using qualitative methods with critical paradigm. As a result, the number of oil and gas companies in Indonesia was influenced by the attitudes and government regulations, the state of technology and state of the Indonesian economy. The low value of oil and gas exports was as the result of exporting crude oil price with lower pricecompared to that of processed oil. The existence and the number of foreign oil companies influenced the level of oil and gas export value of Indonesia. The more dominated growing number of foreign companies in Indonesia, the less export value of the Indonesian oil and gas would be.

Plant Shutdown

Double Block and Bleed is a term often used in the oil and gas industry to define a level of isolation sufficient to perform maintenance activities. The true definition relates to incumbent valves providing two proven levels of isolation against the outboard pressure to permit breaching of containment in the isolated pipe. This paper assesses how temporary isolation devices can provide equivalent isolation where incumbent valves do not exist at appropriate locations in the system. It reviews the different interpretations of Double Block and Bleed used within the industry and compares how different isolation devices are assessed in relation to the level of isolation they provide. It will reference several examples from around the world of where temporary isolation devices have been used to replace valves and perform repairs in trunk pipelines without depressurising the whole pipeline. It will also cover examples of isolating live process pipe to perform maintenance activities outside plant shutdown.

Subject. The article addresses the EV/EBITDA and EV/DACF ratios of the twenty five largest public oil and gas corporations from 2008 to 2018. Objectives. The purpose is to identify key trends in the value of EV/EBITDA and EV/DACF ratios of biggest public oil and gas corporations, determine factors resulted in the changes over the studied period, and establish the applicability of these multipliers for assessing the business value within the industry. Methods. I apply methods of comparative and financial-economic analysis, and generalization of consolidated financial statements data. Results. The study revealed that EV/EBITDA and EV/DACF multiples are acceptable for valuing oil and gas companies. The EV level depends on profitability, proved reserves, and a country factor. It is required to adjust EBITDA for information on impairment, revaluation and write-off for assets that are reported separately from depreciation, depletion and amortization costs, as well as for income or expenses arising after the sale of fixed assets and as a result of effective court decisions or settlement agreements. It is advisable to adjust DACF for income, expenses and changes in assets and liabilities, which are caused by events that are unusual for oil and gas companies. Conclusions. The application of EV/EBITDA and EV/DACF multiples requires a detailed analysis and, if necessary, adjustments of their constituent components. However, they are quite relevant in the context of declining profitability and growing debt burden in the stock exchange sector of the global oil and gas industry.

Abstract Nigerian oil and gas industry have over the years witnessed incessant conflicts between the stakeholders, particularly the host communities in Niger Delta region and the oil and gas companies in partnership with the Federal Government. Conflict which is here defined as manifestation of disagreement between individual and groups arising from differing and mutually incompatible interests has both positive and negative effects depending on how it was managed. Managing conflicts is all about limiting the negative aspects. The study examined conflicts management in Nigeria oil and gas industry and how best the positive elements of conflicts can be maximally exploited for the mutual benefit of both oil and gas company and the host communities in Niger Delta. The study adopted the multidisciplinary approach, literature review, case study and relied on secondary sources using analytical method of data analysis. The study findings revealed that the major factors that precipitate conflicts between the oil and gas industry and host communities in Niger Delta include economic, social, political, and ecological factors. There are available strategies that can be used in conflict management. These include avoiding, accommodating, or smoothing, competing, or forcing, compromising, and collaborating. Any of these strategies can be used to manage conflict depending on the situation, the environment factor, and the nature of the conflict. The problem is that the oil and gas companies in partnership with the Nigerian government often adopted the wrong approach in dealing with the conflict with host communities, using avoiding or forcing strategies. The study recommends collaboration strategy which ensues long term-term solution to mutual benefits.

Subject. This article explores the ratios of the company's market capitalization and value to the balance sheet value of assets and equity of the twenty five leading public oil and gas companies between 2008 and 2018. Objectives. The article aims to identify key trends in the changes in market capitalization and value ratios of the company to the balance sheet value of assets and equity of the largest public oil and gas companies, identify the factors that have caused these changes, and establish the applicability of these multipliers to estimate the value of the business within the oil and gas industry. Methods. For the study, I used comparative, and financial and economic analyses, and generalization of materials of the companies' consolidated financial statements. Results. The article establishes that the multipliers studied are acceptable for assessing the value of oil and gas companies, but it is preferable to use asset-based ratios. Conclusions and Relevance. The overall decline in profitability and the increase in debt load in the stock exchange sector of the global oil and gas industry should be taken into account when using multipliers based on assets and shareholder capital in the assessment of the value of oil and gas corporations through a comparative approach. The results of the study can be used to assess the possible value of oil and gas assets as part of a comparative approach and develop measures to increase the market capitalization of public oil and gas companies.

The application of Behaviour-Based Safety (BBS) in the oil and gas industry is facing a severe challenge that safety performance may decline when BBS intervention is removed, due to the dynamic and transitory nature of working area and workforce. This research investigates the factors affecting the implementation of Behaviour-Based Safety (BBS) approach in Oil and Gas Industry. Seven oil and gas companies practicing BBS had been chosen for case study. These companies has been implementing BBS as part of the safety exercise from 2 to 20 years. The findings show that implementation of BBS started by the request from the client. Seven challenges of implementation BBS emerged during the interview that is data management, top management commitment, employee acceptance towards program, organizational safety culture and financial barrier. While, the factor that influences the implementation of BBS is the organization commitment, top management level, training and understanding of workers toward BBS are the factors that affect the implementation of BBS in oil and gas industries.
