Maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) materials typically represent 15–20% of the operating costs for a mature oil and gas asset. Of this, a substantial proportion is comprised of high-value repairable equipment such as motors, compressors and pumps. This equipment is often at bottlenecks in the production process and so the impact of materials cost on profitability is magnified by the production ramifications of an outage. Effective management of this equipment is key to the sustainable, profitable operation of any oil and gas asset, and is key to improving the competitiveness of the Australian industry. Oil and gas companies are adopting a variety of models to handle the repair process, with varying degrees of success. Challenges include: poor materials availability and lack of traceability; complex infield materials management processes resulting in costly wastages; difficulty in managing consistency, suitability and specifications of repairs; high cost for those undertaking the repairs; and, correct allocation of responsibility and risk in the materials management process. Developed in collaboration with Australian oil and gas operators, with input from case studies outside the oil and gas industry, this extended abstract discusses the roles and opportunities for the circular economy in helping companies to meet their sustainability and profitability targets. Using several real-life examples, it makes recommendations for vendors, service providers and operators that can have material impact on the profitability of the industry.

This research assesses the impact of monetary (exchange rate) and fiscal factors (oil and gas taxes, MET on oil) on the dynamics of revenues of the oil and gas industry of the Russian Federation.


The impact of corrosion within the refining industry ends up in the failure of components. This failure leads to closing down the plant to scrub the corroded components. Additionally, corrosion normally causes serious environmental issues, namely spills and releases. A vital resource for all those that are concerned within the corrosion management of oil and gas infrastructure, corrosion management within the oil and gas industry provides engineers and designers with the tools and strategies to plan and implement comprehensive corrosion-management programs for oil and gas infrastructures. Control of corrosion is important for continuous production and evading the well control losses. Materials to be used in down hole have to meet certain characteristics to avoid corrosion and provide additional mechanical strenght. It is potential to determine a logical series of steps for material choice, incorporating analysis of the surroundings, corrosion rate calculations, and final material choice based on established limits. Several developments have taken place in refinement the calculation of CO2 corrosion rates. Moreover, the definition of bitter examination has been reviewed and a way wider evaluation of the relevance of varied established and new materials for various service conditions has been created.

The petroleum (oil, gas and LNG) business environment in 2020 was adverse. Two factors disrupted the foundations of the global oil and gas industry. First, the COVID-19 global pandemic caused an unprecedented reduction of demand that combined with high levels of production resulted in oversupply of oil, gas and LNG. This gap between supply and demand resulted in a collapse in commodity prices, reduced revenues and cancelling or deferral of investment. Second, societal awareness of the impact of climate change on planet Earth increased. Pressure to reduce carbon emissions and a concomitant societal-shift against carbon-emissions intensive petroleum-based forms of energy generation intensified. Many major players in the petroleum industry re-framed their strategies to focus on energy supply in general and in some cases plan to cease their exploration, development and production activities in the coming decades. In Australia, in part global factors manifested in the deferral of investment decisions on three LNG investments. The Australian Government signalled that gas developments would be a critical part of Australia’s post-COVID recovery and that management of abandonment and decommissioning liabilities would be a factor in the approval of transactions leading to a change in ownership. This paper will describe each of the factors faced by the industry in 2020 and frame the issues facing the petroleum industry in 2021 and beyond.

This study examines the impact of crisis management on employee’s performance in the Yemeni oil and gas industry. Crisis management was measured by two dimensions; crisis preparedness and crisis prevention. Whereas employee’s performance was measured by three diminutions; task performance, adaptive performance, and contextual performance. The study uses a quantitative approach. Questionnaires were used to collect data from 6 oil and gas companies. The sample comprises of 351 participants, out of which 268 (74.23%) responded. The reliability of the instruments was examined and the results of the Cronbach’s Alpha was .906, indicating an excellent reliability. The results of regression analysis reveal that crisis management as the whole independent variable has a significant impact on employee’s performance as dependent variable. Furthermore, the results of regression analysis reveal that there is a significant relationship between crisis management and employee’s performance in terms of crisis preparedness, crisis prevention, and employee’s performance. Essentially, crisis appraisals should include testing as an integral aspect of planning for any eventuality. Ultimately, organizations should install communication units or structures and ensure employees are trained well. This study has made some recommendations for oil and gas companies.

This article discusses the impact of the Alberta Land Stewardship Act – enacted by the Government of Alberta with the goal of developing an overarching land use policy to manage all lands and natural resources in the province – on Albertans generally, as well as the oil, gas, and oil sands industries. Although the implementation of the Act is in its early stages, the article nonetheless argues that the Act, and the authority that it grants, will significantly alter the way that land use decisions are made in Alberta and, of specific interest to those in the oil, gas, and oil sands industries, the manner in which proposed projects are reviewed and approved.

Aim. The presented study aims to build a model for the efficient development of the oil and gas industry in the long term. Tasks. The authors investigate the peculiarities of the development of the oil and gas industry in the Russian Federation at the present stage when the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has had a significant impact on the reduction of oil production and global demand for oil and petroleum products; identify strategic directions for the development of the oil and gas industry in Russia and substantiate the need for government measures to support the oil and gas industry, including the possibility of forming innovative investment resources and reducing the tax burden in combination with a global shift away from fossil fuels, which will ensure more efficient use of oil and gas reserves. Methods. This study uses the theory and methodology of strategizing developed by academician V.L. Kvint as a basis for determining strategic directions and priorities for the development of the oil and gas industry. An economic and mathematical regression model for predicting the volume of oil production in the Russian Federation over the next five years is developed with allowance for the priorities of the methodology under consideration. Results. Substantiation of the projected values of oil production increases the preparedness of Russian oil companies and the government, allowing them to respond to various scenarios in the future and thus making it possible to develop an efficient strategy based on preventive measures to reduce the impact of oil price volatility on the Russian economy. Calculations show that Russia will most likely not be able to fully realize its production potential. In the long term, oil production will naturally decline due to the depletion of the resource base. One of the prerequisites for the successful operation of oil and gas enterprises is their orientation towards an innovative strategy in the context of sustainable development. Conclusions. The era of cheap oil and unexpected profits from hydrocarbons is gradually coming to an end. Therefore, strategically important directions for the oil and gas industry include the modernization of technologies and equipment by attracting investments in oil and gas enterprises and the development of the industry’s infrastructure, diversification of the refining industry, reduction of crude oil exports, and increased exports of finished petroleum products.


This paper aims to reveal the impact of liquidity towards profitability of oil and gas industry in Malaysia. The analysis is based on a sample of 25 oil and gas companies that are listed in Bursa Malaysia for the period of 2012 to 2018. Regression analysis was used to test the impact and the trend of financial position after and before decreasing oil price. The result shows that there is a significant impact of only quick ratio on Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE) and Return on Invested Capital (ROIC). While for the cash conversion cycle, the result shows that there is a negatively and significant on ROA, ROE and ROIC. However, for the current ratio, it shows the result as insignificantly with the three dependent variables; ROA, ROE and ROIC. The main results of the paper demonstrate that each ratio (variable) has a significant impact on the financial positions of oil and gas industry with differing amounts and that along with the liquidity ratios in the first place. In addition, this paper shows the results that after the crisis of dropped in oil price, it’s affected to the oil and gas industry in Malaysia.

The relevance of the chosen topic is connected to the fact that in the conditions of value-based management, market capitalization acts as a key indicator of the company efficiency. At the present time, when the Russian oil and gas industry has become the object of international sectoral sanctions, the identification of the impact of these sanctions on the domestic oil and gas companies’ value is of great practical importance. The article considers the cost of oil and gas companies and the impact of sectoral sanctions and negative dynamics of oil prices. The study was conducted using econometric modeling tools. For analysis 4 of the oil company with the largest market share, namely PJSC “Rosneft Oil Company”, PJSC “LUKOIL”, JSC “Gazprom Neft” and PJSC “Tatneft”, which in the aggregate represent 62% of the entire Russian oil industry, were selected. The features of valuation of Russian oil and gas companies are covered. The sanctions in the oil and gas industry of the Russian Federation are considered, the consequences of their introduction and the fall of the world oil price are analysed. The analysis to determine the impact of the cost of oil and gas companies from international sanctions and oil prices. It was found that in the oil industry market capitalization depends directly on the price of oil, and in the gas industry this impact is absent. It was discovered that due to the low level of oil prices, the sanctions did not have a significant influence on the cost of oil and gas companies.

Fuel and energy industry rules one of the well-positioned markets in the world economy which supplies planet’s most needed and limited resources with evergrowing demands. Being a marketable supplier and leading movement of large flows of capital requires being surely treated as a leading investor, employer, and taxpayer. Taxation of fuel and energy industry, especially oil and gas industry has been an irreplaceable source of revenue for oil and gas exporting economies. New taxation rules, methods, and types have been regularly introduced to keep an optimal balance between government and company to keep both fiscal and corporate stability. However, taxation always does not stimulate corporate stability and in most cases hinders expansion. Changes in taxation directly effect in profitability and perspectives of the company. This paper examined the impact of taxation on the profitability of oil and gas companies in Uzbekistan. Model-based analysis proved that tax factors negatively influenced the profitability of selected oil and gas companies.
