Produktbeschreibung

Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Law, , language: English, abstract: This paper argues that, although the government is fully confident that there has been enough exploration success to justify higher government take and increase other socio-economic benefits under the new terms, there remain challenges towards encouraging foreign investment in petroleum exploration and development activities in the country. A critical aspect of an oil and gas exploration and production agreement is balancing the interests of the state and investors. The broad objective of any resource rich government is to insure that it maximizes as much revenues as possible from its natural resource and insuring that there is always an appropriate level of investment in exploration and development activities in the country. The investors on the other hand are interested to maximize as much profit as possible by minimizing the costs, quick recovery of these costs and working with stable governments. In order to ensure a sustainable development of exploration and development activities in the country these varying state and investor’s interest has to be balanced.
