One of the essential tools for management of the sectors including the oil and gas sector is the legislative and institutional structure. This paper reviews the overview of the current legal and institutional framework for energy resources development, with weight on oil and gas resources and their critical significance to socio-economic and political development. It affords a comparative account of some new features and on-going trends of the activities conducted by the institutions for sustainable development of the oil and natural gas sector in Tanzania.

For more than 15 years, a significant part of the budget revenues of the Russian Federation have been tax revenues from the sale of hydrocarbons, in particular oil and natural gas. Despite the desire of our government to minimize its dependence on oil and gas revenues, the government continues to implement measures to encourage both small and large companies by providing some tax-related benefits, thereby encouraging the fields to further develop and expand.

AbstractThe 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia regulates natural recources in its particular article. Then, the Energy Law and the Oil and Gas Law regulate the state’s control of oil and natural gas. In the sectoral regulations of oil and gas, there is a public service obligation (PSO) which must be assumed by the Government and State Owned Enterprises (SOE). Meanwhile, in the SOE Law introduced entity Perum and Persero. Where in Perum entities carrying out public service, while the Persero entity to assume the role for profit. But in practice found a PSO on the oil and gas sector carried by state-run entities Persero. IntisariDalam Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia 1945 diatur penguasaan negara terhadap sumber daya alam. Kemudian UU Enegi dan UU Minyak dan Gas Bumi mengatur penguasaan negara terhadap minyak dan gas bumi. Dalam pengaturan sektoral di bidang tersebut juga mengatur kewajiban pelayanan umum yang harus diemban oleh pemerintah dan BUMN. Sementara itu dalam UU BUMN diperkenalkan  entitas Perusahaan Umum (Perum) dan Perseroan Terbatas (Persero). Dimana entitas Perum mengemban peran pelayanan umum (public service), sementara entitas Persero mengemban peran mencari keuntungan (profit oriented). Namun dalam praktek ditemukan kewajiban pelayanan umum pada sektor minyak dan gas bumi diemban oleh BUMN dengan entitas Persero.

Management of oil and gas resources or revenues from trans-boundary or disputes areas has always been an issue of controversy in most oil and gas resource-rich countries. Tanzania is among the developing countries which rise with rich in oil and gas resources. It requires more attention on how the revenues generated from these resources should be utilized sustainably. This paper, therefore, provides the current overview of the tools and institutions that offer the guidelines on oil and gas revenue management and distribution.

Egypt's oil and gas sector is one of the most strategic sectors in the economy being the single largest industrial activity in the economy, with exports of crude oil and petroleum products constituting 40% of Egypt's export revenues and 20% of its GDP. However, Egypt is currently trapped between dwindling oil production and increasing domestic consumption, a fact which threatens the country to become a net importer of crude oil as well as deprive it of strongly needed foreign exchange. Yet, Egypt has proven natural gas reserves and its future energy outlook seems to be more affiliated with natural gas especially for future export potential. Given these conditions, a restructuring of the sector is necessary for sustainable development. Suggested strategies in line with Egypt's development efforts are outlined including gradual reduction of energy subsidies and their expected impacts on the economy.

The province ofNewfoundland and the federal government both claim ownership of the oil and gas resources off the coast of Newfoundland. This paper examines the legal arguments that could be raised in the event that the issue is litigated. Matters examined include the applicability of the continental shelf doctrine, whether New foundland could successfully assert more limited claim to the area within three miles of its shoreline, and the possible legislative competence of each government in relation to the offshore oil industry.

This article discusses the features of the development of the oil and gas markets. The latest trends and problems associated with the extraction and sale of energy resources are analyzed in detail. After analyzing the essence of the main problem sectors, we can conclude that the oil and gas products market is currently facing three main strategies, namely, increasing fossil fuel production, diversification and reorientation to renewable sources

AbstractThis article develops several concepts of critical geopolitics and relates them to the energy resources of the Caspian Region. Energy resources beyond borders may be accessed by trade, respectively by conquest, domination and changing property rights. These are the survival strategies of human groups in the international system. The article differentiates between demand-induced scarcity, supply-induced scarcity, structural scarcity and the creation, respectively, transfer of property rights. Together, the behaviors referred to by these concepts create a field of social forces that cross state borders involving state and a variety of non-state actors. During World War II, the US began to separate the military borders of the country from its legal-territorial borders. By dominating the world's oceans, the Anglo-Saxon power presided over the capacity to induce scarcity by interdicting maritime supplies to allies and enemies alike. Today, overland transport increasingly connects economies and energy supplies on the Eurasian continent. The US has therefore to go on land in order to pre-empt the land-based powers from unifying their economies and energy supplies.

Development and implementation of new approaches to desulfurization of oil products, as well as the gradual transformation of the oil and gas sector of the economy with a focus on sustainable development are topical. At the same time, the development and application of heterogeneous chemical and / or biocatalytic (cells, enzymes) catalysts is attractive. Such catalysts are highly efficient, have an increased useful life, and can be easily concentrated on the required number of catalysis sites, in particular, at the phase boundary, and then separated from the working medium.
