Serbia takes part in the process of the economic globalization through the process of economic convergence towards Europe. Currently this economic convergence with the EU nations represents the most important aspect of the economic globalization for Serbia. Otherwise, the national states, regardless of their size, can influence the economic globalization, if they have the national strategy for the regionalization, harmonization, and governance of the global processes. Serbia has opportunities to be an important world oil and gas crossroads. For Serbia it is interesting not only what will happen with oil and gas sector in the future, but also what kind of (geo)politics will follow it. Moreover, as a modern transport 'backbone', Corridor 10 might at the same time stimulate the development and connection of the remaining Serbian road and railway infrastructure with the neighborhood, as well as the entire economy as a whole. The reform agenda is comprehensive and neglecting important challenges such as creating institutions will result in deeper crises in the future. Growth will only take place if the society creates the institutions and policies that encourage innovation, investment, and education. The rise in competitiveness of the Serbian economy is becoming increasingly important for at least two reasons - one being the expected EU accession, and the other being the persistent high current account deficits and increased foreign debt jeopardizing macroeconomic stability. Serbia does not have the luxury of postponing this work on longer-term issues.

Significance The oil sector's contribution to GDP fell last year, but this was due only to the market impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Kazakhstan continues to depend heavily on oil exports for tax revenue and consequently for recurrent government spending and large public investments. Impacts Rising production at the Tengiz, Karachaganak and Kashagan fields will increase their share of total output from 63% in 2020 to 72% in 2025. The continued concentration of foreign investment in the oil and gas sector will thwart attempts at economic diversification. Slowing production at old deposits in western and southern Kazakhstan is fraught with risks of social instability and unrest.

Sophisticated Analysis

Four broad trends are shaping the workforce of the future: demography, social changes, economic forces and technology. The first two mean that the workforce is much more diverse than before, both in its capabilities and its expectations. The economic forces will affect the nature of business and the organisation of work and how the workforce interacts with work. Technological changes mean that the nature of work is changing, and the workforce will have to adapt to meet the new ways of work and changing needs of industry. Although some have assumed that this will lead to a loss of jobs, more sophisticated analysis shows that many jobs will, in fact, be enhanced or redesigned as a result of the opportunities that technology brings. This paper focuses on our recent research into the changing nature of work and our recent work mapping the effect of technology on the mining industry. This mapping will provide insights into how technology has shaped the skills needed in the industry into the future and how organisations need to respond, including implications for leadership, training and work design. Our aim is to deliver a compelling case for acting now to prepare the oil and gas workforce, and to highlight the talent strategies the sector and its members should prioritise in response.

Oil And Gas Sector

This paper emphasizes the role of primary sources of energy, primarily oil and gas in the future (so-called “energy mix”) with the expected trends in the future. The changes expected by the oil and gas sector in the 21st century have been underlined due to energy decarbonisation. There are intense discussions about the oil and gas future due to the effects of climate change and the announcement that oil is in the final phase of exploitation due to the high depletion of fields around the world. How are the big oil companies responding to these challenges and what are the trends of global energy consumption? In the 21st century, it is necessary to take in account all types of energy with the growth of renewable sources. In the meantime, natural gas is imposed as a bridge between fossil and decarbonised energy, and the trends in the gas segment in the world and in the Republic of Croatia will be emphasized as well. In addition, the new Croatian energy strategy must be aligned with changes in the oil and gas sector, as well as exploration and production of hydrocarbons. Carbon-free energy is still a long way, but the low-carbon energy period has begun.

Dividend is the return given to the shareholders on investment made by them in company’s capital. It is paid in cash to shareholders out of companies’ profit and sometimes shareholders have an option to reinvest all or part of dividend in the company. Raising of fund for future growth and development of the significantly depend on Dividend Decision. Hence, the present study is an attempt to study the determinants of the Dividend decision. In the present paper, The impact of profit Before Tax, Assets and Long-Term Liabilities on Dividend Decision of the Public Oil and Gas Sector in India has been analysed in the present research work. Analysis for the period of 5 years i.e., 2015-16 to 2019-20 through a statistical model has been carried out. The regression and correlation techniques have been used to study the level of impact of the selected companies on the public sector of Oil and Gas Sector in India. The study found that 97% variation in the Dividend was because of a set of predictors and hence the Dividend can be predicted from a linear combination of factors affecting dividend decision i.e. PBT (Profit Before Tax), A (Assets) and L (Long-term Liabilities). It can be concluded that shareholders got an increase in Dividend with the increase in PBT. It means that shareholders got a higher return in the form of a Dividend on the fund provided by them because of increase in profits of the companies. It is observed that with the increase in Assets (means with the increase in the size of the business), correspondingly turnover and profit have increased and as a result, the return of the shareholders i.e. Dividend has also increased. On one hand, Long Term Liabilities have increased while on the other hand Dividend has also increased. It shows that the fund requirement for an increase in Assets (size of the business) has been met by the borrowed funds and equity shareholders got the benefit of Trading on Equity because the amount of Dividend has also increased

Proyeksi ekspor dan impor Indonesia memiliki urgensi penting sebagai salah satu acuan untuk merumuskan target pertumbuhan ekonomi nasional dalam Rencana Pembangunan Jangka Menengah Nasional (RPJMN). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyusun proyeksi ekspor dan impor nasional periode 2015-2019 yang dilihat berdasarkan sektor migas dan non migas. Dengan mempertimbangkan berbagai aspek ekonomi eksternal, Vector Autoregression (VAR) digunakan untuk memberikan perkiraan besaran petumbuhan ekspor dan impor di masa mendatang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa di masa datang pertumbuhan ekspor Indonesia masih dipengaruhi oleh Produk Domestik Bruto negara-negara mitra utama sedangkan impor lebih dipengaruhi oleh beberapa faktor ekonomi domestik. Hasil proyeksi VAR menunjukkan bahwa ekspor nasional pada 2015 turun sebesar 10,65% dan meningkat sebesar 1,06% di tahun 2019, sedangkan impor nasional tahun 2015 turun sebesar 10,02% dan meningkat sebesar 12,11% di tahun 2019. Apabila pemerintah ingin menetapkan target ekspor lebih tinggi dari angka tersebut, maka usaha peningkatan ekspor harus ditopang dengan perbaikan sisi penawaran, dan target impor yang lebih rendah dapat dicapai dengan pengetatan konsumsi migas. Export and import projection is one of the important activities to determine the target of economic growth in the National Medium-Term Development Plan (NMTDP). This study aims to set out the projections of national exports and imports during 2015-2019 according to oil and non-oil sectors. By considering some external factors, Vector Autoregression (VAR) is utilized to forecast the future growth of export and import. The results showed that the future growth of Indonesia’s export was determined by Gross Domestic Product of trading partners, while the Indonesia’s import was influenced by domestic economic factors. The national export in 2015 was projected to decline by 10.65% and to increase by 1.06% in 2019, while the national import was projected to decline by 10.02% in 2015 and increase by 12.11% in 2019. If the government intends to set the export target higher than the projection, the improvement on the supply side must be considered. Moreover, the lower import target could be achieved by tightening the oil and gas consumption.

Among other obligations imposed under the forestry permit, watershed rehabilitation planting is perceived by the upstream oil and gas sector as the most complex challenge to conquer. Despite its poor track in fulfilling timeline and required result, there are also other challenges to consider, for instance lack of critical location, weather, fire, land tenure, community habit and capability, and cost optimization. In attempt to respond these challenges, an innovation in management system is constructed at PT Pertamina Hulu Mahakam, embracing and tailoring all related challenges, difficulties, and complexities, escalating the activity to be beyond compliance. So that it will be able to deliver more than merely avoid the identified potential risks towards company. The management system, called PIRAMIDA TINGGI (Pemberdayaan Masyarakat untuk Melestarikan Hutan di Dunia demi Ketahanan Energi Nasional), actively involves government, community, and business sector as equilateral triangle that work together to perform watershed rehabilitation planting. Developed using ISO 9001:2015 process approach namely PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act), the PIRAMIDA TINGGI system is in line as well with NAWACITA (President Joko Widodo’s vision, mission and program). To encounter other issue found during field work, this system is equipped as well with another innovation tool named PARIDA, a geospatial mobile-desk top-web application that easily able to map and identify vegetation in real time for further geo-analyzing multi-purposes, to be operated by local community. Full set implementation of this system has benefitted all parties. To Company in form of significant cost efficiency around 13.9 MUSD and 7 days’ faster result delivery besides obligation fulfillment, for others in form of broader advantage of proven sustainability project that has gave contribution to 5P (People, Planet, Prosperity, Partnership and Peace), objectives required by UN Sustainable Development Goals 2030.
