This paper aims to provide an understanding and insight regarding land procurement for oil and gas exploration activities as well as the development of regulations or legal and policy breakthroughs that have so far not been or very little exposed. Land procurement has always been a serious obstacle or obstacle to oil and gas exploration activities in Indonesia. Land procurement for oil and gas exploration using a business to business (B to B) mechanism makes it very difficult for SKK Migas and the contractor. In recent years, the government has made legal breakthroughs to simplify and accelerate the land procurement mechanism for exploration activities. This study uses a normative juridical method supported by in-depth interviews with legal experts, land acquisition committees and landowners and has produced conclusions: First, the business to business (B to B) mechanism often faces obstacles and obstacles, such as; 1) refusal from the landowner; 2) inconsistency with the spatial layout; 3) there is a land dispute with other parties; 4) it is difficult for oil and gas contractors to process land certification. Second, the discretion which is considered as a legal breakthrough or new policy that is ideal in helping to smooth and accelerate the process of oil and gas production in Indonesia.

Upstream oil and gas activities both searching up to oil and gas production are government programs where activities are regulated in legislation. Before drilling, to obtain oil and gas reserves, the need for land for drilling activities is a step that must be passed. Since the upstream oil and gas activities are government programs, the government guarantees the availability of land for such activities that can be classified into the public interest and set forth in Law No. 2 of 2012 on Land Procurement for Development for the Public Interest.               The formulation of the problem in this research is : How the stages of activities Land acquisition for the public interest PT.Pertamina EP - Paku Gajah Development Project?, What are the opportunities and impacts at each stage of the activity ? Land acquisition for public interest PT.Pertamina EP - Paku Gajah Development Project ?, and How is the mitigation effect of each stage of Land Acquisition activities for This research uses semi-quantitative descriptive method. The data collection tool used is questionnaire with liekert scale (1-5). The results of this study indicate that the stages of land acquisition for the public interest consists of planning, preparation, implementation, and delivery of results.

Government policies in natural resource management, especially in the oil and gas sector face a lot of problems. However, the government also has a responsibility to improve the life of people affected from oil and gas exploration and production activities. This research was aimed at investigating how the implementation of policies run by the central and local government toward the oil and gas management and community empowerment, especially the community located closely  to oil and gas exploration and production activity in Madura, East Java. This research method is phenomenological research using descriptive qualitative approach. Therefore, this study is conducted through direct observation on the object during the research time. The data collection is done through observation and interview. The results of this study revealed that it is needed an integrated step done by the government, vertically, whether central, provincial, district, and village to synchronize oil and gas management and community empowerment programs. By doing so, the ideas and desires to improve the welfare and increase the state income will be realized, especially in focusing corporate and government programs improving citizen’ economic and education, whose area becomes the location of oil and gas production.

The need to study the problem of seabed local scour near offshore platforms has arisen in Russian Federation in connection with the activation of oil and gas production from fields located in coastal areas of seas (in accordance with the Energy Strategy for the period up to 2030, approved by the Government of the Russian Federation on November 13, 2009, No1715-p). Operation of offshore platforms is characterized by a number of features: shallow water areas; severe storm conditions; large transverse dimensions of structures that cause waves diffraction; the variety of used structure forms; the way of platform mounting on the seabed. During platform operation in the shallow waters, its basement soil is under an intense impact of sea waves, currents, as well as jets from engine of coming and berthing ships. The structure disturbs the natural wave flow. Near the platform, flow velocity increases, there are vortexes breakaway from platform corner edges. Scour holes appear and progress near platform foundation. Their location and measure depend on the parameters of external impacts, on the water depth, on the shape and dimensions of the foundation block.

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.

At first, oil extraction was carried out by people of different professions, without special training. The beginning of the organized training of oil industry specialists dates back to 1885, when in the village Sloboda Rungurska there was opened the first high school in Galicia. In the same year in the village Ropyanka there was opened the first professional oil school in Europe. In 1886 in Borislav the government created the Krajova Mining School, which was reorganized into the State College of the Virgin in Boryslav in 1928. In the article the educational program of the school, the qualification level of trained specialists and their working places are researched.In addition to public schools in Galicia, they ] created a private school for training specialists in oil industry (in 1935 in Yaslo city). Than is how the organized training of specialists for oil and gas production in Eastern Galicia was developed.

The article deals with the research of the potential of oil-and-gas content within the Western Ukrainian oil and gas region.  The main directions and ways of increasing oil and gas production are determined. Consequently, the discovery of new hydrocarbon fields is the major direction to boost oil and gas production. The issue of the discovery of new oil and gas fields is suggested to divide into the following directions: a search for oil and gas fields at shallow depths (short-term prospect), a search for oil and gas fields at mid-depths and a search for oil and gas fields at great depths (the main prospects of increasing oil and gas production). The geological and geophysical data were thoroughly analyzed throughout structural and tectonic units within the Western region of Ukraine with the aim of substantiating the prospects of their oil-and-gas content and introduction of new directions of oil-and-gas exploration. The prospects of oil-and-gas content of the Neogene and the Mesozoic deposits of the exterior of the pre-Carpathian depression and flysch of the interior of the pre-Carpathian depression are provided. The prospects of oil-and-gas content of the Cretaceous and the Paleogene deposits of folded Carpathians are characterized. The promising directions for further oil-and-gas exploration within indicated tectonic elements of Carpathian region are identified; the top priority project sites are suggested. Wildcat drilling and further oil-and-gas exploration are strongly recommended for all identified project sites. The research has identified the most promising exploration project sites. All of them are illustrated with appropriate maps and cross-sections. Thus, the most promising ones at shallow depths (up to 2000 m) are the following ones: South-Slyvkinske, Anhelivka, Hoshiv and Verkhnii Hutyn elevations. At mid-depths there are Pechenizhyn, Kliuchiv, Uhilnia and Boratychi elevations. At depths over 4000 m there are the following ones: Horodyshche structure, Posada, Dubliany, South-Lopushnia, Biskiv, Sloboda-Dolyna and Mizhrichchia elevations, Pidrezhzhia and Dobromyl-Strilbychi structures. The assessment of the resource potential of identified exploration project sites was done.


Subject Gas sector update. Significance Despite sharp reductions in oil companies' global exploration and production, Egypt is attracting multi-billion-dollar fast-track upstream oil and gas investment. Cairo has already made progress in addressing key imbalances in its energy sector, and succeeded in reducing arrears to oil companies. Boosting upstream oil and gas production will eventually help stabilise the budget. Impacts Egypt's gas balance could turn positive by 2020, reducing the country's demand for LNG and oil product imports. Incentives for renewables, particularly solar power, are a likely path for diversifying the energy mix and stemming domestic gas demand. The government is likely to remain committed to generous PSAs. It will also probably advance domestic gas pricing reform to maintain the upstream sector's current momentum.

Oil and gas exploration and production are two of the activities that potentially cause pollution and environmental damage. The largest waste generated from this activity is produced water. Produced water contains hazardous pollutants of both organic and inorganic materials, so that the produced water of oil and gas production cannot be discharged directly to the environment. Uncontrolled discharge can lead to the environmental damage, killing the life of water and plants. The produced water needs to be handled and fulfill the quality standards before being discharged to the environment. Several studies to reduce the contaminants in the produced water were conducted by researchers. Among them were gravity based separation - flotation, separation technique based on filtration, and biological process treatment. Therefore, some of these methods can be used as an alternative waste handling of produced water.

Modern production conditions show that labor protection and industrial safety are one of the most important tasks of the government and oil and gas companies. The article aims to analyze the dynamics of accidents and industrial injuries with fatal outcomes that occurred at oil and gas production facilities in 2008–2018. The methods of statistical research were used. These are retro-perspective analysis and Shewhart control charts. The data on fatal industrial injuries in the Russian oil and gas production industry provided by the Federal Service for Environmental, Technological and Nuclear Supervision were used. Having analyzed the maps and identified the points beyond the upper and lower boundaries of average values, the conclusions about the random / systemic nature of damage to the health of workers were drawn. The results allowed us to analyze the risk of fatal injuries, their causes and find ways to reduce them. The effective operation and modernization of the industrial safety management system, constant development and an annual increase in the level of safety at hazardous production facilities is one of the main tasks of managers.

The oil and gas exploration industry continually discovers energy resources at greater water depths, and in many of the structures now being designed for offshore oil and gas production the anchoring system is one of the key components, having significant influence on operational characteristics as well as safety.The best possible understanding of the problems involved in anchoring is therefore essential, and an evaluation of a design for deep-water long-term anchoring should include:evaluation of possible excitation sources at actual site (wind, waves, current)dynamic analysis of the structure and mooring linesevaluation of soil properties and anchor behaviourevaluation of fatigue strength of mooring linesevaluation of conditions for corrosion and corrosion protection.In this paper 'the state of the art' within these problem areas is discussed. Sample calculations of global and local dynamics of the mooring lines are compared with results from conventional quasistatic analysis to demonstrate the importance of taking into account dynamic phenomena and oscillations caused by wind, waves and current action. Areas for further research are also discussed.
