Dr Scott Steedman CBE, Director of Standards at BSI, reflects on the history of BSI and shows how standards have become an integral component in running a successful and accountable business… Before the twentieth century there were no standards. 35,000 his may seem like a counter intuitive statement.

On 10 March 2015 the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which Repsol, S.A. (‘Repsol’, Spain) acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation sole control over Talisman Energy Inc. (‘Talisman’, Canada), by way of purchase of shares. 2. The business activities of the undertakings concerned are: — Repsol is present in all activities relating to the oil and gas industry including exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas; refining and marketing activities of oil products, petrochemical products, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) as well as marketing activities relating to natural gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG), — Talisman is active in the exploration, development, production, transportation, and marketing of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. Talisman’s activities are concentrated in North America, the North Sea, and Southeast Asia. It also has assets in Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, Australia/East Timor, and Papua New Guinea. 3. On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of the Merger Regulation. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under the Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the procedure set out in the Notice.

Specifically, I remember talking to Professor Ewald about my motivations for writing a thesis. I explained to her that although many of my friends were basking in the free time of a light senior year course schedule, I wanted to do something important in my final months in college. “I didn’t come to Duke to sit on the couch and watch TV,” I told her. Almost nine months later, I only vaguely remember desiring such lofty goals. Stressed out and sleep deprived, I’ve hit the point that most of my friends had already reached at the beginning of the year.

The Future of the Canadian Energy Industry in a Low Price Commodity Environment Monika U. Ehrman* INTRODUCTION As wildfires raced across Northern Alberta in May and June 2016, they consumed over 1,930 square miles—almost the size of the State of Delaware or the Canadian province of Prince Edward Island—and displaced over 80,000 residents, mainly in the oilfield town of Fort McMurray. The City of Fort McMurray, Alberta, was once a small community known primarily for its rich natural resources, including fish, rock salt, and timber. In the early 1900s, Canada’s Federal Department of Mines, in conjunction with the University of Alberta, performed separation experiments to extract bitumen1 from the oil-rich sands.2 Decades later, in 1967, the Great Canadian Oil Sands—now Suncor— “proved that bitumen could successfully be removed [from] the oil sand and upgraded the crude oil on a large scale.”3 The commercialization and reserve recognition of the oil sands transformed Canada into the sixth largest oil producer in the world4 and the third largest holder of petroleum reserves, after Venezuela and Saudi Arabia.5 The massive fires, visible even in satellite photos, not only endangered lives and personal property, but also threatened to consume certain oil sands project infrastructure.

  • The World Oil Market and OPEC: a Structural Econometric Model*
    The World Oil Market and OPEC: A Structural Econometric Model* Khaled H. Kheiravar, C.-Y. Cynthia Lin Lawell, and Amy Myers Jaffe Abstract We develop and estimate a structural econometric model of the dynamic game among petroleum-producing firms making production and investment decisions in the world oil market. Our parsimonious model of the notoriously complex world oil market fares fairly well in assessments of model validity and model fit, particularly for oil producers; and also generates results that align with economic theory and previous assessments of the industry. To further gauge the validity of our parsimonious model and its plausibility for use in approximating the effects of counterfactual scenarios on the short-run evolution of industry, and also to enhance our understanding of OPEC behavior, we use the structural econometric model to analyze the effects of a hypothetical change in OPEC membership on the petroleum industry. Although we do not assume or impose that OPEC producers collude to maximize joint profits, but instead infer the strategy and payoffs for OPEC firms from the data, results show that OPEC behaves in such a way that is consistent with its mission and also with cartel behavior. We find evidence of cost synergies between oil and natural gas production. Our results also suggest that the high fossil fuel subsidies observed in many oil-rich countries may result from state-owned firms maximizing profits and then redistributing some of the profits that they have maximized, rather than from state-owned firms maximizing a weighted sum of profits and consumer surplus in a mixed oligopolistic setting.

According to Natural Resources Canada, oil sands reserves are spread in 3 distinct areas of northern Alberta that cover a total area of 140,200 km2. The 3 areas are: • Athabasca deposits (largest reserves) • Cold Lake deposit • Peace River deposit Alberta’s heavy oil resources contain 1.7 trillion barrels of oil in place. Some 170 billion barrels of this heavy oil, or bitumen, are rated economically recoverable – making them the world’s 3rd largest crude reserve. Only about 20% of bitumen reserves that lie within 70 m of earth’s surface are economically accessible by open-pit mining, while the remaining 80% are buried too deep be mined and must be recovered in situ (Latin for in place) by drilling wells. This involves much less surface disturbance than mining operations. In 2013, oil sands were recorded to produce 1.95 million barrels per day. According to Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) it is estimated that the oil sands will produce 4.8 barrels per day by 2030. The Canadian oil sands have attracted an estimated $217 billion of capital investment to date, including almost $33 billion in 2013. Currently there are 58 oil sands projects in Alberta that are valued at $5 million or greater, which account for an approximate total value of $109.3 billion.
