Book Synopsis Iraq's Oil and Gas Industry by : Janan Al-Asady
Download or read book Iraq's Oil and Gas Industry written by Janan Al-Asady and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-13 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oil, an integral part of the contemporary global economy, is considered a driving force behind the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Hydrocarbon reserves in Iraq have a significant role to play in global supply, with oil revenue accounting for more than 90% of Iraqi government income. This book provides a comprehensive insight into the key foundations of Iraq's oil industry and assists in the development of a core area of domestic law to promote economic recovery following years of instability. It addresses the development of oil legislation and the formation of contracts since the US and allied occupation of Iraq in 2003. Legislation is assessed against the framework of the constitution along with the different types of oil agreements and their terms. The book looks at three main aspects of oil legislation, beginning with the validity and interpretation of the constitution as any subsequent legislation governing oil policy will be based upon this. The work then discusses whether the draft oil and gas law of 2007 and any subsequent oil legislation, including the law implemented by the Kurdish Regional Government in 2007, is valid. Finally, the book analyses the legitimacy of oil agreements entered into by the central and regional governments and whether these contain terms beneficial to the state and contracting party. Providing an in-depth analysis of the origins and development of the legal framework of the oil industry in Iraq, the book acts as both a reference source and a springboard for future research across a range of legal, economic and policy perspectives. It will appeal to practitioners and academics working in energy law and international investment law, as well as policy-makers, legal advisors and those working in governments and energy companies.

Book excerpt: A complete and comprehensive history of Iraq's oil and gas industry during the 20th century, this account discusses how the industry has been overshadowed and marginalized by turbulent and violent historical and political events--including numerous coups, revolutions, and the tragic and destructive wars--and gives overdue recognition to its professionals. Providing a balanced and level-headed understanding of the current, grave situation in the country, this account also underscores the difficult relationship between the Iraqi government and the Iraq Petroleum Company while shedding light on how history shaped the industry itself.

Book excerpt: Development in Iraq¿s oil and natural gas sector is proceeding, in spite of continuing delays in agreeing to hydrocarbon sector and revenue sharing legislation to define new terms for the mgmt. of the country¿s significant oil and natural gas resources. Both the Bush Admin. and the 110th Congress considered the passage of oil and gas sector framework and revenue sharing legislation as important benchmarks that would indicate the Iraqi government¿s commitment to promoting political reconciliation and providing a solid foundation for long term economic development in Iraq. This report reviews policy proposals and interim contracts, analyzes the positions of various Iraqi political actors, and discusses potential implications for U.S. foreign policy goals in Iraq.

Book Synopsis Iraq Oil and Gas Papers 2011 by : Muhammed Abed Mazeel
Download or read book Iraq Oil and Gas Papers 2011 written by Muhammed Abed Mazeel and published by disserta Verlag. This book was released on 2012 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains M. Abed Mazeel's 2011 articles examining several technical problems in the current oil and gas fields and prospects in Iraq. Iraq Oil Ministry has offered twelve areas covering 81,700 square kilometres with the blocks having a mix of oil and gas productivity. However, many blocks contain oil and gas shows and some of them are situated very close to previously discovered fields. The west and southwest of the desert are estimated to have high potential for hydrocarbon, where the own state Oil Exploration Company (OEC) has discovered several fields and many thousand of kilometres of 2D seismic data were acquired. The mentioned regions are thought to contain numerous undrilled prospects and, by that, to be highly prospective. Yet only four exploration wells have been drilled on the blocks, and the seismic coverage is old and of poor quality, including the west and southwest to the south of the country. The potential of discovering high potential reservoirs is very considerable, which may change the Iraqi total reserves to 300 or more billion barrel of oil and 500 trillion bscf of gas. This compilation of articles has the objective to identify and evaluate the petroleum systems of prospects and leads, calculate the reserves and assess the hydrocarbon potential and economics of the twelve blocks, Akkas and Ahdab fields using existing literature and available data published by the Ministry of Oil.

Download or read book Iraq Oil and Gas Papers 2010 written by Muhammed Abed Mazeel and published by disserta Verlag. This book was released on 2011 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains my articles from 2010. I have tried to examine some of the technical problems in the current oil and gas industry in Iraq. In the geology/geophysics and reservoir engineering section, I used the available information and in some cases, I estimate to fill the gap in the existing data. International contracts usually differ from case to case or from field to field; in Iraq, TSC and PSC still have unclear contract conditions and public information is not enough for the detailed calculation needed for exact NPV and IRR. Additional concerns are the cost estimation down structure and geopolitical strategies of Iraq. The management of the existing oil and gas institutions in Iraq is one of the most urgent problems the country is facing. The restructuring of companies and the Ministry of Oil is generally addressed in my articles. I have also illustrated many possibilities for the restructuring and reorganization of the development of managerial and marketing systems. In the rebuilding of the country, and specially, the oil and gas industry in Iraq, there needs to be more investigation into how to optimize the exploitation of natural resources for better economic benefits for all parties (the owner of the resources as well as International oil companies). The close cooperation between the Ministry of Oil in Iraq and the IOC ́s and state oil should be open for reorganization and restructuring in order to benefit the entire country and to develop the process of integration in international markets.

Book excerpt: This Selected Issues paper focuses on the Iraqi oil sector and analyzes the developments and prospects after the twin shock. The Iraqi economy was affected by the two major challenges during 2014—ISIS insurgency and the fall in global oil prices. Iraq’s oil sector has performed well despite the security challenges that emerged after the onset of the ISIS insurgency in June 2014. On average, Iraq earned $97 per barrel on oil exported in 2014. Asia remained the leading destination of the Iraqi oil exports during 2013–14, and its share increased from 50 percent in 2012 to 65 percent in 2014.

Book Synopsis Restructuring and Re-organization of the Iraqi Oil Ministry and State-owned Oil Companies for Maximum Economic Growth and National Development by : Muhammed Abed Mazeel
Download or read book Restructuring and Re-organization of the Iraqi Oil Ministry and State-owned Oil Companies for Maximum Economic Growth and National Development written by Muhammed Abed Mazeel and published by disserta Verlag. This book was released on 2012 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first steps towards restructuring and reorganizing the institutions and legislation of the Iraqi oil and gas industry must include taking ownership of resources, allocating acreages to Iraqi Kurdistan and neighbour states, improving the transparency as well as governmental participation and fiscal principles. It is important to provide an institutional framework that governs the operations of the industry, including its functions, structure, powers and funding. Operations in the upstream of the industry comprise licenses, leases and contracts. Other considerations covered are award processes, right of governmental participation, marginal fields, indigenous companies, termination and revocation of both licenses and leases, matters on fees, rents and royalties and, finally, provisions on Associated Natural Gas. The legislation in the downstream sector focuses on licensing, refining, marketing and pricing of oil products, transport logistics and facility management companies, pipelines and depots. The operating stocks and Iraq strategic stocks are also necessary. The needs of the downstream natural gas include both technical and commercial licensing regulations and conditions, as the network, gas supply licenses, transportation pipelines licenses and the whole sale market in addition to the possibility of third party access, customer protection, the pricing regime, public service obligations, competition and market regulation. The legislation is an amendment to the existing Iraqi Technical Service Contracts (TSC) and Production Sharing Contracts Agreements (PSC) in Iraqi Kurdistan based on the need to create a new fiscal framework that takes various compelling issues into consideration. It needs to capture the full gas value chain for taxation purposes in order to develop a fiscal regime for gas removed from oil and to create thereby a level playing field for all investors in gas and promoting the effective management of costs across the industry, which in turn will maximize the government's take. Other considerations revolve around the requirement to develop a fiscal system, which responds to changes in price, and to clarify inconsistencies or conflicts in the application of fiscal terms for oil and gas; and, finally, to develop a fiscal rule of general application based on a body of expected fiscal laws. Quality, health, safety and environment are missing elements in Iraq. During the restructuring and reorganization of the institutions the QHSE should take on a major role in working with the aforementioned departments in the Oil Ministry and the operating companies. The obligations of the state and international oil companies towards the state environmental regulations and public rules must be upheld according to the licensees, lessees and contractors considering matters of abandonment, decommissioning and disposal and their funding. The various actors in the oil and gas production are obligated towards various communities in the oil-producing region of the country, with supporting community development, providing employment opportunities, compensation, infrastructure, protection and management of the environment as essential components. The Ministry of Oil remains a civil service outfit that is ill-equipped to conceive and enact the required policies for such a complex and sophisticated industry. Hence, there is a strong need for principal and basic interaction between Federal Oil Ministry, existing directorial and state oil companies, Kurdistan Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources, and private sector operatives. This applies also to the reorganization and restructuring of Federal Oil Ministry, existing directorial and state oil companies, Iraqi National Oil Company and Iraqi National Gas Company.

This book was released on 2014-04-11 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: This book covers policy proposals and interim contracts, assesses the positions of various Iraqi political actors and examines the potential significance for international foreign policy goals in Iraq. Despite a lack of progress in reaching agreements on the hydro-carbon sector and revenue sharing legislation to set new conditions for the management of the country s significant oil and gas resources, development in Iraq s oil and gas sector is moving forward. The passage of the oil and gas sector framework and revenue sharing legislation will be seen as significant milestones by International governments and International Oil Companies (IOC ́s). This would provide evidence of the Iraqi government s dedication to promoting political reconciliation and providing a solid foundation for long term economic development in Iraq. Interim revenue sharing mechanisms have been introduced due to the lack of new legislation. Additionally, both the Federal Government (the Federal Oil Ministry-MoO) and the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) (the Regional Ministry of Natural Resources and Energy) have made oil and gas development deals with foreign firms. The MoO is working with existing regulation from the previous political and administrational regime, while the Regional Ministry of Resource and Energy Kurdistan-Iraq has designed its own laws and regulations, which the Federal Government has not yet recognized. There is wide recognition among Iraqis of the importance of oil and gas revenue for the Iraqi economy. Most groups see the need for new legal and policy guidelines for the development of the country s oil and natural gas resources. However, Iraq s Council of Rrepresentatives (parliament) has not yet considered the proposed legislation due to ongoing political discord and general political instability. There are strong differences on key issues between Iraqi critics and supporters of various proposed solutions. These include the appropriate role and powers of federal and regional authorities in regulating oil and gas development; the conditions and degree of potential foreign participation in the oil and gas sectors; and proposed formulas and mechanisms for equitably sharing oil and gas revenue. Simultaneously, there are strong disagreements on related discussions about the administrative status of the city of Kirkuk and proposed amendments to articles of Iraq s constitution that outline federal and regional oil and gas [...]

Book Synopsis Oil and National Identity in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq by : Alessandro Tinti
Download or read book Oil and National Identity in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq written by Alessandro Tinti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the interplay between the oil economy and identity politics using the Kurdistan Region of Iraq as a case study, this book tells the untold story of how extractivism in the Kurdish autonomous region is interwoven in a mosaic of territorial disputes, simmering ethnic tensions, dynastic rule, party allegiances, crony patronage, and divergent visions about nature. Since the ousting of Saddam Hussein, the de-facto borders of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq have repeatedly changed, with energy interests playing a major role in such processes of territorialisation. However, relatively little research exists on the topic. This book provides a timely, empirical analysis of the intersections between extractive industries, oil imaginaries, and identity formation in one of the most coveted energy frontiers worldwide. It shines a light on relations between the global production networks of petro-capitalism and extractive localities. Besides the strained federal relationship with the Iraqi central government, the transformative effects the petroleum industry has had on Kurdish society are also explored in depth. Moreover, the book fills a gap in the literature on Kurdish Studies, which has devoted scant attention to energy-related issues in the re-imagination of Kurdish self-determination. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of the extractive industries, energy studies, conflict studies, Middle Eastern politics, and political ecology.
Book Synopsis Oil and Politics in My Life by : Tariq E Shafiq
Download or read book Oil and Politics in My Life written by Tariq E Shafiq and published by E-Kutub Ltd. This book was released on 2021-02-18 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This booklet provides a summary of the author’s Book, which is based not so much on research of Iraq’s past and present or the international oil industry but on the author’s first-hand experience over six decades in the techno-economics and concessionary affairs of the oil industry at large and specifically in Libya, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, complemented by his published papers and rich library books used as references. The author intends to provide history and a perspective of Iraq’s oil and gas development for the owners of the resource, the Iraqi nation, for the oil and gas industry at large and last, but not least, for the colleagues at the Ministry of Oil (MoO) and the Iraqi National Oil Company (INOC) who were involved, often at great cost to their health and reputations.

Download or read book Geopolitics and Energy in Iraq written by Robert E. Ebel and published by CSIS. This book was released on 2010 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of this paper addresses the issue of the March 7, 2010 national election; the selection of a prime minister; and whether the promise held by the election will be fulfilled. If not, will the country return to the sectarianism conflicts that characterized its past/ Senior Iraqi officials fear that the troop drawdown could well result in a power vacuum to be filled by insurgents. The report also addresses the issue of the Iraq oil and gas sector, including security of the critical infrastructure, the role that sector has played over the years, its current position, and the prospects held for achieving a place in the world oil market commensurate with its reserves in the ground. Iraq continues to be the great unknown in terms of future world oil supply and is likely to remain so for the near term at least, if not longer should political constraints remain. The report concludes with a look at the electricity sector and the general public unhappiness with inadequate supplies.
