This article examines the involvement of the oil and gas industry in a social issue that not only alleviates the social problem but also becomes a powerful basis for business sustainability. Specifically, this paper analyzes Pertamina RU VI Balongan CSR program called Forum Komunikasi Safety Indramayu (FOKSI) in Indramayu District, West Java Province. This research uses the qualitative descriptive method. Data is collected through documentation, interview, and direct observation. Interview data collected as main data is sorted and triangulated with other data sources, both those obtained from observation and data from the result of documentation studies. The validity of the data is followed up at the analysis stage. The result shows that PT Pertamina RU VI Balongan succeeds to reduce unemployment issue in Indramayu through the FOKSI program based on the CSV approach. At the same time, the company is successful in obtaining skilled workers in alleviating potential work accidents in the oil and gas industry. Moreover, the knowledge and skills acquired by beneficiaries are disseminated at the community level. The involvement of the government through Dinas Sosial Tenaga Kerja dan Transmigrasi (Dinsosnakertrans) in the scheme also indirectly provides an opportunity for the creation of clean governance. However, the program has not significantly reduced the problem of unemployment in Indramayu. Therefore, PT Pertamina RU VI Balongan needs to invite other industries in alleviating the problem of unemployment by employing the safety employees.Artikel ini mengkaji keterlibatan industri migas pada isu sosial yang bukan saja menekan masalah sosial, akan tetapi juga menjadi basis kekuatan bagi keberlanjutan bisnis. Secara spesifik, tulisan ini menganalisis program CSR Pertamina RU VI Balongan bernama Forum Komunikasi Safety Indramayu (FOKSI) di Kabupaten Indramayu Provinsi Jawa Barat. Metode penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah deskriptif kualitatif. Data dikumpulkan melalui studi dokumentasi, pertanyaan wawancara dan observasi langsung. Data hasil wawancara yang terkumpul sebagai data utama disortir dan ditriangulasi dengan sumber data lainnya, baik itu yang didapat dari hasil observasi maupun data dari hasil studi dokumentasi. Data yang teruji kesyhahihannya ditindaklanjuti pada tahap analisis. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa PT Pertamina RU VI Balongan berhasil meminimalisir pengangguran di Kabupaten Indramayu melalui program FOKSI berdasarkan pendekatan CSV. Pada saat bersamaan, perusahaan itu sukses memperoleh tenaga kerja terampil dalam menekan potensi kecelakaan kerja di industri migas. Apalagi, pengetahuan dan keterampilan yang diperoleh penerima manfaat disebarkan di level masyarakat. Keterlibatan pemerintah melalui Dinas Sosial Tenaga Kerja dan Transmigrasi (Dinsosnakertrans) dalam skema itu juga secara tidak langsung memberikan peluang terciptanya tata kelola pemerintahan yang bersih. Namun, program itu belum secara signifikan mengurangi masalah pengangguran di Indramayu. Oleh sebab itu, PT Pertamina RU VI Balongan perlu untuk mengajak industri lain dalam menekan persoalan pengangguran dengan cara mempekerjakan tenaga safetyman.

Federal tax revenues from the main sectors of the Russian economy after the 1998 crisis are examined in the article. Authors present the structure of revenues from these sectors by main taxes for 1999-2003 and prospects for 2004. Emphasis is given to an increasing dependence of budget on revenues from oil and gas industries. The share of proceeds from these sectors has reached 1/3 of total federal revenues. To explain this fact world oil prices dynamics and changes in tax legislation in Russia are considered. Empirical results show strong dependence of budget revenues on oil prices. The analysis of changes in tax legislation in oil and gas industry shows that the government has managed to redistribute resource rent in favor of the state.

Since the beginning of the 19th century, we have assisted major proliferation of the oil and gas industry. This phenomenon of exponential growth is due to the fact that oil companies hold the world’s oil monopoly on the extraction, processing and commercialization. Therefore, as being one of the most influential sectors in the world, is crucial to strictly regulate how oil and gas contracts concerns the potential environmental and social impacts arising from the conduct of petroleum operations and how such behavior affects the human rights. As a matter of fact, the social issues field is an emerging area, and despite such importance, oil contracts do not often deal with them in great detail, corresponding to an actual emptiness of the human rights provisions. In terms of responsibly, oil companies, have an inalienable obligation to ensure that their actions do not violate human rights or contribute for their violation. This study aims to trace a detailed analysis of the impact of the oil and gas agreements in human rights. In order to fully comprehend the deep effects of this industry, we will examine, in detail, numerous of published oil and gas agreements, as well as, decode which are the real standards and practices accepted by this industry. We will use a deductive and speculative reasoning. We will try to demonstrate how incipient and short protection is given to human rights and what responsible conducts must urgently be developed.

The oil and gas industry in Indonesia has been started since 1871 by Royal Dutch Shell. Meanwhile, the oil and gas industry in Aceh began in 1971 which was marked by the discovery of the Arun oil and gas fields. At that time, the management of oil and gas is done centrally by not involving the Government of Aceh as a regional producer. This led to armed conflict between the Government of Indonesia and the Free Aceh Movement and prolonged conflict (for 32 years) ended with the approval of the joint oil and gas management pattern found in the territory of Aceh as stipulated in the MoU Helsinki on August 15 2005, Law No. 11 of 2006 concerning the Government of Aceh and Government Regulation No. 23 of 2015 concerning Joint Management of Oil and Gas in Aceh. In order to finalize joint oil and gas management in Aceh, universities, especially the Faculty of Law, need to immediately prepare human resources who are competent in the oil and gas and energy law so that they are skilled at negotiating and drafting a Production Sharing Contracts (PSC) for oil and gas or Kontrak Bagi Hasil (KBH). For this purpose, law faculties need to immediately incorporate oil and gas and energy law courses into their curriculum.

This article discusses the organization of upstream oil and gas industri in Indonesia from managerial perspective. For Indonesian context, actually this has been arranged by the Statement Oil and Gas Standard Accountancy No.29 Year 2009. In developed countries such as United States there is Standard Financial Accounting Statement issued by Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB). In order to obtain clarity and transparency and to avoid different interpretation between the contractors and the government, therefore there ought to be explicit principles and methods in production sharing contract and desired accountancy period so that the similar method can be applied on APBN (National Planning and Expenditure Budget). This is since accountancy method affects financial report. With the latter, contractor’s performance and state income can be measured. Research methodology are ground research and exploratory research, reaseacher assumption based on field condition and resolve problem from literature study.

Climate change is undoubtedly one of the greatest economic, social, and environmental challenges now facing the world. The present Australian Government is committed to acting on climate change and Australia’s progress towards its emissions reduction targets is being closely watched internationally. To contribute effectively to global climate change action, Australia must demonstrate its ability to implement robust and sustainable domestic emissions management legislation. The Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme (CPRS), modelled after the cap-and-trade system, continues to be debated by our policymakers, as the Government moves to re-introduce its preferred CPRS legislative package for the third time. The advent of climate change legislation is inevitable and its impact will be far-reaching. This paper reviews the fiscal aspects of the proposed CPRS legislation in the context of the oil and gas industry, and whether it is conducive to creating incentives for appropriate climate change response by the industry. In particular, this paper will consider: the direct and indirect tax features specifically covered in the proposed CPRS legislation and their implications; the areas of taxation that remain uncanvassed in the proposed CPRS legislation and aspects requiring clarification from the tax administration; the interaction between Petroleum Resource Rent Tax (PRRT) and the CPRS measures; the flow-on impacts to taxation outcomes resulting from proposed accounting and financial reporting responses to the CPRS legislation; the income tax and PRRT treatment of selected abatement measures; and, elements of a good CPRS tax strategy and compliance action plan.


After Finding the oil & gas occurrences in the subsurface using various methods and tools that were available in Upstream Oil and Gas Industry. Further reaching the reservoir and taking out the Oil & Gas from those to the surface the fuel have to transport and store to get purify for supply to the required user. Here the Midstream peoples plays a vital role in it. The drilled Oil and Gas have to transport from the occurrence to the destination Refinery so it have to be planned well and many safety procedure have to be done to avoid any problem in those transportation and after transporting to the destination it must be maintained in perfect temperature condition and perfect storage tanks either above the ground or the underground .Again there are some safety procedures to be followed which were approved by the Government safety norms. This article deal about the process and procedures in transporting and storage of fuels from upstream to midstream to downstream .Also about the safety precaution and procedure to be followed to have a safe storage and handling.

The release of CO2 into the atmosphere - and more specifically its consequential effect on global temperature – is now more-or-less universally acknowledged as a significant international environmental problem. Known colloquially as the Greenhouse Effect, it is the subject of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. That convention commits its signatories to specific actions directed at stabilising emissions of greenhouse gases (including CO2) at 1990 levels. It was signed at the UN Conference on Environment & Development (the “Earth Summit” which was held in Rio de Janeiro in 1992) by 153 countries including New Zealand. New Zealand has now officially ratified the Convention and has thus effectively committed itself to participate in international programmes of CO2 emission reduction. The Resource Management Act 1991 requires regulatory authorities to consider the environmental effects of activities in their jurisdiction. Carbon dioxide is now considered to be a “contaminant” as defined in the Act and it therefore becomes contingent upon local authorities to determine a suitable response to the problem of CO2 emissions. Regional and district policy statements and plans are required to be consistent with the national policy statement. Although a national policy statement on CO2 emissions does not yet exist it can be expected that eventually the approval of resource consents for oil and gas exploration and production activities typically will require specific actions relating to the release of CO2. The increase of CO2 in the atmosphere is almost entirely the direct result of two fundamental and worldwide activities: the combustion of fossil fuels and the removal of forest cover. When burned, hydrocarbons add large quantities of CO2 to the atmosphere. The removal of forest cover reduces the ability of the ecosystem to extract CO2 from the atmosphere by photosynthesis. The oil and gas industry is, of course, the source of a large proportion of the hydrocarbons used for energy and other purposes. It can therefore be expected that governments (including New Zealand) will focus on various aspects of the industry in their efforts to meet the reduction goal. Until recently the central Government approach to CO2 emission reduction was to implement the so-called no regrets policies which are desirable goals (e.g. increased energy efficiency) which have the positive spin-off effect of reducing CO2 emissions. By themselves such policies are likely to be inadequate to meet the internationally accepted reduction target. The Government must therefore implement more stringent measures. As the matter now stands the Government is investigating a diverse range of methods for reducing CO2 emissions. Because CO2 emissions and energy use are inextricably linked, reducing CO2 emissions can clearly have a detrimental effect on economic development. The 'holy grail' of policy development in this area is to reduce CO2 emissions without producing harmful effects on the economy. Several options (and myriad variations on the theme) have been put forward including, for example, carbon taxes and tradeable quotas. These options and others are now being assessed by Government officials. The industry should be alert to the distinct possibility that policy will focus directly on oil and gas production. From a regulatory point of view such an approach has an enticing simplicity but the effect on the oil and gas industry may prove to be less than desirable.
