The Arctic region has a great potential in development of hydrocarbon resources and can play an important role in meeting future global energy needs. In the presented work the specific features of the Arctic hydrocarbon projects are identified. Key needs of oil and gas industry in technology development within the framework of projects of extraction of hydrocarbon resources in the Arctic are revealed. A critical analysis of technological forecasting methods is presented. Problems and prospects of their use in the conditions of the Arctic zones are established. The need for an integrated approach to forecasting the development of industrial systems of the Arctic zone is justified.

Background. The study examines the mediation effect of safety knowledge in causal the relationship between Occupational Health and Safety Management Frameworks (OHSMF) and occupational injuries and workplace accidents in the Ghanaian Oil and Gas Industry. The study explores different dimensions of occupational health and safety management systems, workplace accidents, and occupational injuries. The study adopted a cross-sectional survey design. A total of 699 respondents through a convenience and purposive sampling technique were selected in three government-owned oil and gas organizations for the study. Correlation, multiple regression analysis, and bootstrapping methods were used for data analysis. The findings of both the regression and correlation analysis indicated that there is a moderately strong negative and significant relationship between Occupational Health and Safety Management Frameworks (OHSMF) and workplace accidents and occupational injuries. Safety knowledge significantly mediates the causal relationship between OHSMF and workplace accidents and injuries. Safety training was found to be a significant predictor of safety knowledge, work-related injuries, and workplace accidents. The negative relationship between OHSMF and workplace accidents and injuries shows that the existing OHSMF are either ineffective or lack the acceptable safety standards to control hazard exposures in the industry. Management must invest in frequent safety training and orientations to improve safety knowledge among workers. The study further recommends government and industry players to extend serious attention towards the promotion and improvement of occupational health and safety management systems in Ghana.

The Impact

The problems of global economic growth are largely due to factors in the dynamics of the oil and gas sector. New requirements for the quality, quantity and timing of the supply of hydrocarbons create opportunities for the development and increase of the efficiency of the oil and gas business, including the growth of its capitalization. For the oil and gas industry, the digital transformation goes beyond the tactical use of technology, the business model is being transformed by accelerating the spread of innovation and the constant growth of practical efficiency, which significantly changes strategic guidelines. The article presents an analysis of the impact of digital technology on the financial aspects of the oil and gas business. The objective obstacles to its digitalization are described, which can form the basis for developing recommendations for promoting digital technologies in this segment of the economy. The advancement of scientific and technological progress and the automation of many stages of production processes are factors in the possible growth in the capitalization of the oil and gas business. Studies have shown that existing technologies are not always able to facilitate this process. Underfunding of the information and computing infrastructure of companies can become a serious problem on the way to strengthening the financial component of the oil and gas business. In the Russian oil and gas industry, the use of additional digital platforms and innovations is an additional advantage for increasing operating profit. The article discusses the cybersecurity of the oil and gas business based on an integrated approach and the implementation of all aspects of the oil and gas company: information, organizational and technological. A group of cyber defense tools is proposed. A new model of the digital transformation of oil and gas companies is proposed to formulate an action plan for the use of digital technologies, to solve tactical problems and strategic goals of the oil and gas business, to ensure its capitalization growth. It is shown that business capitalization under the influence of digital technologies allows the oil and gas industry to implement the latest achievements in the field of cloud computing, digitalization of oil fields, service-oriented architectures and industrialization, significantly expanding the possibilities of corporate financial management.

Risk Management Strategies

Abstract: The five most important risk factors identified in the design phase are 1] scope uncertainty, 2] failed management and planning, 3] changes in errors and omissions, 4] inadequate projectS team structure, 5] inadequate quality requirements. The top five risk factors determined by the procurement category are 1] Inadequate online resources and equipment, 2] Distribution of suppliers, 3] Uncertainty in design and style, codes, requirements and standards, 4] Defective items, and 5] Compromise. The 5 most important risk factors identified in the construction phase are 1] weak project capability, 2] excessive construction costs, 3] major construction delays, 4] strong project plan, and 5] poor safety management .This was initiated by the link between risk factors and the effects on price, quality and timing, as well as the potential for expensive, common, and high-quality outcomes. Keywords: Disaster risk management, risk management strategies, project risk management, oil and gas industry.

Oil And Gas Resources

The oil and gas industry is becoming one of the key priorities of the state policy of the Russian Federation. Ensuring energy and economic security, sustainable development, and innovative development in the context of the digitalization of the economy requires a qualitatively new approach to regulating the oil and gas industry. The tasks of rational use of oil and gas resources, increasing productivity, and environmental friendliness of production processes are set not only for companies in the oil and gas sector, but also increase the responsibility of the state for achieving them. The solution of the above-mentioned tasks requires an integrated approach based on a theoretical and methodological basis, economic research, systematization of world experience, taking into account the use of modern management and regulation mechanisms of oil and gas complex enterprises.

Oil and gas industry has higher standard of safety requirements in production unit due to its high-risk nature of products. Production safety management is the most important component of petroleum project management. With the integration of humanistic management, the smoothness of project operations and the safety of personnel, facilities and products are guaranteed. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the production safety policies in the aspects of humanistic management. Implementation of production safety and humanistic management protocols can effectively reduce the risk factors; thereby improve economic efficiency of oil and gas companies.
