“…Thus, it can be concluded that developing a long-term strategy in the refining sector is a very difficult task. It is hampered by many factors [26][27][28], such as: competition, demand, political relations, level of technical equipment, availability of interchangeable technologies, environmental damage and other factors.…”

Evaluating the Downstream Development Strategy of Oil Companies: The Case of Rosneft

et al. 2022

The relevance of this study is due to the low rate of development of the downstream sectors of Russian oil companies. Against a background of the sale of significant volumes of oil and gas raw materials, Russia lags behind world leaders in the production and consumption of petrochemical and chemical products, with their share in the gross domestic product of the country being only 1.1%. Connected to this is the issue of substantiating strategies of development for the downstream sectors of Russian oil companies, which requires detailed research. In this light, it is necessary to take into account current trends in the worldwide demand on petroleum products and also the opportunities and competitive advantages of Russian oil and gas companies in the creation and development of refineries with a consideration of modern technological, environmental, social and market criteria. The paper tests hypotheses about modernisation as a process of increasing efficiency in the development of the industry as a whole. The results of the study show that the planned pace of development in the industry by means of modernisation proves to be insufficient and requires additional investments in innovative development and new construction. The value of the research lies in the modelling of modernisation strategy options by the example of a large oil company, the estimation of results by the criteria of world average indices of technological efficiency of production and the analysis of these results by state indicators of branch development. The theoretical significance of the research lies in the possibility of using this research approach as an analogue.

“…However, these riots failed to maintain European domination of the construction site, as the regime was actively engaged in the political project of proletarianizing the Kazakhs as part of the policy of korenization (The legendary Turksib, 2018). The pogroms were stopped by criminal prosecution, and the policy of hiring Kazakhs was preserved, though not at the level the local party leadership would have liked (Kirsanova & Lenkovets, 2019;Ostry et al, 2001).…”

It is important to underline the relevance and role of the Turkish railroad construction in the early twentieth century, one of the most ambitious transport projects of those times. It was a unique project which connected Asia and Siberia. From the beginning of the construction of the Turkestan-Siberian Railway (Turksib), controversy began with construction and the labour force. This study explores the characteristics of the construction of Turksib with a focus on labour migration and labour law. The article deals with the archival materials of the Central State Archive of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The results of this study will be useful as a basis for further research into the regions' demographics and the characteristics of railroads and construction employment.

“…Difficult climatic conditions, high capital intensity, irreversible technological and managerial mistakes that lead to environmental disasters highlight the high risks of offshore oil and gas projects. It is also necessary to take into account the long-term nature of such projects and their strategic orientation, i.e., such projects require serious costs and involve irreversible management decisions in the areas of economics, technology and logistics, together with constantly arising geopolitical factors [17][18][19]. The assessment of offshore Arctic oil and gas projects in Russia practically does not take into account the carbon intensity factor of newly established production facilities.…”

In the face of today’s global challenges, oil and gas companies must define long-term priorities and opportunities in implementing complex Arctic offshore projects, taking into account environmental, economic, technological and social aspects. In this regard, ensuring strategic sustainability is the basis for long-term development. The aim of the study is to analyze existing approaches to the concept of “strategic sustainability” of an offshore Arctic oil and gas project and to develop a methodological approach to assessing the strategic sustainability of offshore oil and gas projects. In the theoretical part of the study, the approaches to defining strategic sustainability were reviewed, and their classification was completed, and the most appropriate definition of strategic sustainability for an offshore oil and gas project was chosen. The method of hierarchy analysis was used for strategic sustainability assessment. Specific criteria have been proposed to reflect the technical, geological, investment, social and environmental characteristics important to the offshore oil and gas project. The strategic sustainability of 5 offshore oil and gas projects was analyzed using an expert survey as part of the hierarchy analysis method. Recommendations were made on the development of an offshore project management system to facilitate the emergence of new criteria and improve the quality of the strategic sustainability assessment of offshore projects in the Arctic.
