Egypt, with the Zohr gas field in particular, has been the scene of a flurry of activity in the region. With its close proximity to the Middle East and Europe, North Africa is a strategically important part of the hydrocarbons world. Despite significant political challenges in Libya, there is plenty of good news coming out of Egypt, Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco, as these four countries seek to advance their economies with the benefits of developing natural resources. Uganda is another part of Africa which is under the spotlight thanks to ambitious oil plans, 10 years after it was initially discovered. Finally, the time is right for development and investment, and this will be showcased at the Uganda International Oil & Gas Summit. Oil Review Africa is delighted to be a media partner and find out more about the opportunties on offer, including North African markets are on the rise. exciting new bidding rounds for promising oil blocks.

  • Towards a Policy Framework for Iraq's Petroleum Industry and An
    Towards a Policy Framework for Iraq’s Petroleum Industry and an Integrated Federal Energy Strategy Submitted by Luay Jawad al-Khatteeb To the University of Exeter As a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Middle East Politics In January 2017 The thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgment. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature ......................................................... i Abstract: The “Policy Framework for Iraq’s Petroleum Industry” is a logical structure that establishes the rules to guide decisions and manage processes to achieve economically efficient outcomes within the energy sector. It divides policy applications between regulatory and regulated practices, and defines the governance of the public sector across the petroleum industry and relevant energy portfolios. In many “Rentier States” where countries depend on a single source of income such as oil revenues, overlapping powers of authority within the public sector between policy makers and operators has led to significant conflicts of interest that have resulted in the mismanagement of resources and revenues, corruption, failed strategies and the ultimate failure of the system. Some countries have succeeded in identifying areas for progressive reform, whilst others failed due to various reasons discussed in this thesis. Iraq fits into the category of a country that has failed to implement reform and has become a classic case of a rentier state.

    1216-2574 / USD 20.00 ACTA JURIDICA HUNGARICA © 2013 Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest 54, No 2, pp. 200–204 (2013) DOI: 10.1556/AJur.54.2013.2.6 MARY SABINA PETERS*−MANU KUMAR** Unique UK’s Licensing Policy Favours the State than the Industry: Contradicting Conventional Wisdom Introduction The world petroleum industry is globally interdependent. International oil companies tend to compare investment opportunities worldwide and pursue global strategies: investment opportunities compete with each other and fashion tends to possess world’s oil companies.1 Under such circumstances the role of the state acting as the regulator is of paramount importance especially where the oil and gas industry is a countries key industry.2 In the United Kingdom the government has proprietary rights to the petroleum reserves but they lack capacity to carry out technical tasks as drilling wells and laying pipelines.3 Consequently, the Governments is compelled to turn to private companies who hold most of the fi nancial and technical means needed for the exploration and exploitation of petroleum resources.4 In the United Kingdom, this symbiotic relationship is given effect through the petroleum licensing mechanism. This paper brings to light the various features of the UK licensing regime consequently bringing to light how this regime is favourable to the state than the industries, by laying emphasis on the proprietary rights to the petroleum revenue which vest in the UK through its governing legislations. Legislation The legislative framework for oil and gas exploration and production activities in the North Sea is as originally established by the Petroleum (Production) Act 1934 for onshore activities, subsequently extended to the UK continental shelf by the Continental Shelf Act 1964 and ultimately consolidated by Part I of the Petroleum Act 1998.

I wondered why they could not agree. I was convinced they needed each other, but they simply could not find the way to work together. >> This made me wonder if there was a way for oil companies and governments to work together, rather than waste so much time and energy in conflict. There must be a way! 3 Norway offered a unique opportunity >> On the very first day I arrived in Norway in 1968, I walked to the Ministry of 2Industry in Oslo. I desperately needed a job, and the ministry needed somebody who knew how to assess exploration results. In 1965, Norway had licensed 78 blocks in the North Sea. The government made it clear that international oil companies (IOCs) were needed in Norway. >> Norwegians, however, were skeptical about petroleum operations in the North Sea.

Production Licensing on the UK Continental Shelf: Ministerial Powers and Controls Greg W. Gordon INTRODUCTION This article examines the conditions present in the oil production licenses granted for work on the United Kingdom Continental Shelf (UKCS) from the perspective of the powers given to the state in order to influence or control operational matters—a perspective of particular importance at the moment. Since Margaret Thatcher’s Conservative governments of the 1970s and 1980s implemented the progressive phasing out of direct state participation in the British oil business, the United Kingdom’s approach has been one of “light-handed” regulation.1 This model places the state in the largely passive role of a permitting authority assessing specific proposals brought to it by the licensees of particular blocks. Assumption of that role does not imply

  • International Energy Investment
    INTERNATIONAL ENERGY INVESTMENT Thomas W. Waelde* This article will survey the-sometimes substantive, sometimes only formal-changes in petroleum law governing development in most (non- US) petroleum producing countries as well as current licensing and negoti- ating practices. Given that the former socialist countries (CIS) are cur- rently the main testing ground for oil and gas investment and its legal instruments, the article will focus on how existing legislative and con- tractingllicensing practices fare in the environment of these transition econ- omies. In fact, it is in and through the challenge posed by the transition economies that petroleum legislation and contracting will be forced to evolve. The 1970s were the time of strong assertion of state sovereignty over economic and political emancipation of developing countries, resulting in large-scale nationalization, renegotiation, and emergence of strong state resource companies supported by foreign 1oans.l Resource endowment was seen as an important lever to gain economic power, and private invest- ment generally was excluded, de-packaged and re~tricted.~This attitude has changed, first gradually and then with dramatic speed and scope,3 in the aftermath of the collapse of the supposedly ever-rising petroleum price in 1985 and in the wake of the collapse of state socialism. Encouragement of foreign investment is the order of the day: remnants of the 1970s restric- tions are dismantled everywhere, ex-socialist countries are rushing into for- eign investment as a panacea for their woes,5 and strongly entrenched state * Professor of International Investment, Petroleum & Mineral Law Jean-Monnet Chair of European Economic and Energy Law (1995-98) and Executive Director Centre for Petroleum/Mineral Law & Policy, University of Dundee (CPMLPIDundee), with the collaboration of Andrew Philip-Speed (Lecturer in Energy PolicyTTax, CPMLPIDundee; Ph.D.
