Annotation:
The past twenty years have seen the rapid growth of a new branch of international history, the serious academic study of secret services or ‘intelligence history’ with its attendant specialist conferences and journals. Two main causes for this development can be identified. The first was conceptual, namely the increasing recognition that the study of international history was greatly impoverished by the reluctance of academic historians to address a subject which appeared capable of shedding considerable light upon the conduct of international affairs. Two leading historians underlined this during 1982 in a path-breaking collection of essays on the subject, suggesting that intelligence was the ‘missing dimension’ of most international history. The second development was a more practical one, the introduction of the Thirty Year Rule during the 1970s, bringing with it an avalanche of new documentation, which, within a few years, was recognized as containing a great deal of intelligence material. In the 1980s historians had begun to turn their attention in increasing numbers to the intelligence history of the mid-twentieth century. They were further assisted in their endeavours by the appearance of the first volumes of the official history of British Intelligence in the Second World War.

Annotation:
John Foster Dulles, then Secretary of State under the presidency of Eisenhower, once said there are two ways to conquer: by the clash of arms or through the economic control. The motto of the former WWII British SBS Commandos (Special Boat Service)used to be "United we conquer" and the one from the SAS (Special Air Service) used to be "Who dare win ", both of these commando troops or irregulars were in tactical competition framed by strategic cooperation where the light forces overcame heavier and overnumbering forces. Unity and daringness seem to be their secret weapon, but neither so secret nor so exclusive, comparatively to the recipe of tactical competition framed by strategic co-operation and coordination. "Superior numbers on the battlefield are an undoubted advantage, but skill, better organization, and training, and above all a firmer determination in all ranks to conquer at any cost, are the chief factors of success. Half-hearted measures never attain success in war and lack of determination is the most fruitful source of defeat" wrote Anthony Wilden1. The Chinese "Chii" (close to the latin "anima": heart, mind, courage) may be translated to "determination" and not by "energy" as it uses to be with the western obsession and compulsion of matter, energy and big power at the expense of high determination or "Tai Chi". The Chinese "Lii" - though its primal senses are "Law", "Rationality" and "Reason", "Rite" and "Harmony" - may be viewed as "Skill". Here, Asia is the Far East and mainly Japan, the "mother tiger" and her "baby tigers ", namely Korea (South), Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan. The ride of the dragon is oriented elsewhere and devastated Viet Nam (the smaller dragon) - by its independence wars and communist insulation and isolation - is not yet in the game. Strategy is both an organizational level of action and a type of action based on disguise, deception, uncertainty, flexibility and adaptation.

In our article, we have tried to clarify the relationship between the Turkic kingdom and the Tatabi based on Runic sources and Chinese sources related to the relationship between Turks and Tatabi. The relationship between the Turkish kingdom and the Tatabi is characterized by service, military alliances, and warfare. The Sui Kingdom united the small khanates of the South and the North and changed the situation of the Middle Kingdom which had been divided and divided for more than three hundred years, but it was a short-lived state like the Qin State. During this period, they fought with Korea for twenty years in this war that passed through the northeastern part of current China, and in order to get the support of the Tatabi people, they took advantage of their wealth, and it is said that the Tang state, which arose after that, sought to bring the Tatabi ethnic group under its jurisdiction. The Turks, who established a large nomadic empire, did many things to keep Tatabi as their official state. Although the Tatabis could not establish their own state, they continued to be recorded in historical sources. They were superior in terms of land, hunting and farming were coordinated, they were good at fighting, and they had strong provincial ties. In Chinese sources, the name Tatabi has been recorded in political history even during weak times for more than nine hundred years from Wei to Yuan. The secret of the Tatabi family is that they survived by themselves without being influenced by the politics and powers of the state of the time which is important in the future. Although Tatabi was a small nomadic tribe from the east, dominating them would be one of the important steps of the Sui State, Tang State, and Turkic Kingdom’s political and economic position to rule Northeast Asia and run their foreign policy successfully in that historical time.

The threat posed by chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear (CBRN) weapons has been growing for years due to technological advances and the changing political environment. These weapons are attractive to states mainly because of their deterrent value, and non-state actors, especially terrorist groups, may use them causing an enormous psychological impact. The diversity of the threat is increased by the recent and highly unusual trend of attacks by state actors in Europe and Asia using CBRN weapons. How should states deal with this new threat? Does it imply a new set of tasks for CBRN protection?

Annotation:
Interference of esotericism and politics became apparent especially in the 19th century when the early socialists expected the coming of the Age of Spirit, and narratives about secret wisdom being kept in mysterious sacred places became all the more popular. Thus, the idea of the Age of Enlightenment underwent transformation: the world will be saved not by ordinary knowledge but by some special secret wisdom. In this context, Helena Blavatsky (1831–1891) developed the doctrine of Theosophy the ideas of which were overtaken by the next-generation theosophists including also the Russian painter Nicholas Roerich (1874–1947) and his spouse Helena Roerich (1879–1955) who developed a new form of Theosophy. The aim of this article is to analyse the interference between Theosophy and politics paying special attention to its historical roots, which, in the context of Roerich groups, are to be sought in the political activities of Nicholas Roerich, the founder of the movement. The following materials have been used in the analysis: first, writings of the founders of Agni Yoga or Teaching of Living Ethics; second, the latest studies in the history of Theosophy made in the available archives after the collapse of the soviet regime; third, materials obtained from the interviews of a field research (2006–2008). The author has made use of an interdisciplinary approach combining anthropological methods with the method of systematic analysis. The historical roots of the political activity of contemporary theosophists stretch into the political aspirations of Nicholas Roerich, the founder of Agni Yoga or Teaching of Living Ethics. Opening of the USSR secret archives and publication of several formerly inaccessible diaries and letters of theosophists offer an opportunity to study the “spiritual geopolitics” of the Roerichs. Setting off to his Central Asian expeditions (1925–1928; 1934–1935), Nicholas Roerich strived to implement the Great Plan, i.e. to found a New State that would stretch from Tibet to South Siberia comprising the territories governed by China, Mongolia, Tibet and the USSR. The new state was conceived as the kingdom of Shambhala on the earth, and in order to form this state, Nicholas Roerich aspired to acquire the support of various political systems. During the Tzarist Empire, the political world outlook of Nicholas Roerich was markedly monarchic. After the Bolshevik coup in Russia, the artist accepted the offer to work under the wing of the new power, but after his emigration to the West Roerich published extremely sharp articles against the Bolsheviks. In 1922, the Roerichs started to support Lenin considering him the messenger of Shambhala. Roerich’s efforts to acquire Bolshevik support culminated in 1926 when the Roerichs arrived in Moscow bringing a message by Mahatmas to the soviet government, a small case with earth for the Lenin Mausoleum from Burhan-Bulat and paintings in which Buddha Maitreya bore strong resemblance to Lenin. The plan of founding the Union of Eastern Republics, with Bolshevik support, failed, since about the year 1930 the soviet authorities changed their position concerning the politics of the Far East. Having ascertained that the Bolsheviks would not provide the anticipated support for the Great Plan, the Roerichs started to seek for contacts in the USA which provided funding for his second expedition (1934–1935). The Roerichs succeeded even in making correspondence (1934–1936) with President Roosevelt who paid much larger attention to Eastern states especially China than other presidents did. Their correspondence ceased when the Security Service of the USA grew suspicious about Roerich’s pro-Japanese disposition. Nicholas Roerich has sought for support to his political ambitions by all political regimes. In 1934, the Russian artist tried to ascertain whether German national socialists would support his efforts in Asia. It may seem that the plans of founding the Union of Oriental Republics have passed away along with Roerich; yet in 1991 his son Svyatoslav Roerich (1904–1993) pointed out once again that the Altai is a very important centre of the great future and Zvenigorod is still a great reality and a magnificent dream. Interference between esotericism and politics is observed also among Latvian theosophists: the soviet regime successfully made use of Roerich’s adherents propagating the communist ideology in the independent Republic of Latvia. In the 1920s and 1930s, the embassy of the USSR in Riga maintained close contacts with Roerich’s adherents in Latvia and made a strong pressure on the Latvian government not to ban the Roerich’s Museum Friend Society who actively propagated the success of soviet culture and economy. On 17 June 1940, the soviet army occupied the Republic of Latvia, and Haralds Lūkins, the son of the founder of the Roerich’s Museum Friend Society, was elected to the first government of the soviet Latvia. Nevertheless, involvement of theosophists in politics was unsuccessful, since after the official annexation of Latvia into the USSR, on 5 August 1940, all societies including the Roerich’s Museum Friend Society were closed. Since the members of the movement continued to meet regularly, in 1949, Haralds Lūkins was arrested as leader of an illegal organization. After the Second World War, theosophists were subjected to political repressions. Arrests of Roerich’s followers (1948–1951) badly impaired the movement. After rehabilitation in 1954, the repressed persons gradually returned from exile and kept on their illegal meetings in small groups. To regain their rights to act openly, Roerich’s followers started to praise Nicholas Roerich as a supporter of the soviet power. With the collapse of the soviet regime, Roerich’s followers in Latvia became legal in 1988 when the Latvian Roerich Society was restored which soon split up according to geopolitical orientation; therefore, presently in Latvia, there are the following organisations: Latvian Roerich Society, Latvian Department of the International Centre of the Roerichs, and Aivars Garda group or the Latvian National Front. A. Garda fused nationalistic ideas with Theosophy offering a special social reorganization – repatriation of the soviet-time immigrants and a social structure of Latvia that would be formed by at least 75% ethnic Latvians. Activity of A. Garda group, which is being criticized by other groups of theosophists, is a continuation of the interference between theosophical and political ideas practised by the Roerichs. Generally it is to be admitted that after the crush of the soviet regime, in theosophist groups, unclear political orientation between the rightists and leftists is observed, characterised by fairly radical ideas.

Abstract The 1950s strife over communism and anti-communism exposed Americans as their own worst enemy. “We have met the enemy, and he is us,” Walt Kelly famously had Pogo say. Dean Acheson’s rash defense of Alger Hiss put him in that number, too. The frenzy over communists “boring from within” coincided with a hard renewal of Soviet espionage, as station chiefs of the KGB (Moscow’s secret police) in March 1950 moved toward winning over ordinary U.S. citizens. As Chinese armies poured over their American foes in Korea, the McCarthyite attack on the administration became pitiless. The biggest prize the “primitives’” wanted to bag was Acheson himself, plus anyone working for him having anything to do with Asia. Acheson himself survived and achieved most of his goals, but he paid a price in somewhat reduced effectiveness and a far higher one in personal abuse. Fighting back, he leaned precariously into the hostile winds, not “broken under fire,” said one observer, but “bent considerably.” He surrendered one significant hostage, John Stewart Service, and came to realize his defense of Hiss had redoubled the troubles of worthier men. His own travail led to more caustic views of his congressional foes, their media allies, and with redeeming qualifications, of the people and democracy, too.

This chapter argues that the prosecution of Amerasia, a small left-wing journal on Asian affairs, heralds the political use of the Espionage Act to control information about US foreign policy during the Cold War. The prosecution also accelerates the rise of McCarthyism. The political context is the contention of John Service and foreign service officers known as the “China Hands” that Mao Zedong's communists would emerge victorious in the civil war in China. When their reports are ignored, they disclose secret documents. This prompts surveillance, warrantless searches, and prosecution. The Truman administration's equivocation ruins the careers of a generation of diplomats. Senator Joseph McCarthy seizes upon the case to allege coverup of communist infiltration of the State Department.

Abstract I have briefly touched on the use of spies and captured documents; we must not forget the role played by the groups that operated behind the lines in Burma and elsewhere in south-east Asia, with the original task of organising sabotage and guerrilla activities, and an extra responsibility, added later after acrimonious controversy, for collecting intelligence. There was a link with signals intelligence: signals were their lifeline, and signals security was even more crucial for their survival than it was for any military unit. The Americans had a simple arrangement in the area: the OSS (Office of Strategic Services) looked after all their clandestine groups, whatever their function, while the OWI (Office of War Information) dealt with propaganda For the same functions in the same area the British had no fewer than ten secret organisations, five of which had no hand in sabotage, the training of guerrillas or the getting of intelligence.

This chapter takes the prevailing anti-aging sentiment and cultural practice as the starting point of a critical analysis and shows that the modernist worldview of materialistic individualism is at their foundation. Exposing and critiquing the limiting deficit understanding of human aging and human development in this worldview, the authors propose a developmental model that moves beyond materialistic individualism and egoic development and sees human beings becoming progressively integrated into larger and larger circles of being that include not only human others but also non-human others such as Nature and Cosmos. This wider and holistic vision of human development is influenced by classical Asian philosophies that posit post-egoic notions of human being. Using biographical materials to identify the themes relevant to post-egoic development, the authors sketch a model of lifelong learning and growth with what they see as essential elements of such growth: secure bonding and connection, nurturance and nourishing, spirituality, self-cultivation and inner work, community development, virtue cultivation, healing, meditation, and contemplative practices.

Chapter 4 describes Rusch’s experience from the time of his repatriation to the United States to his service as a personnel officer for the Military Intelligence Service Language School. Rusch’s task was to recruit Japanese Americans for the U.S. Army, where they would learn Japanese to serve the war effort. Rusch was also part of a speaker’s bureau, through which he would appear at public functions to discuss Japan’s military capabilities. On some occasions, before audiences of the Protestant Episcopal Church, Rusch spoke against America’s policy of interning Japanese Americans. But more often than not, Rusch’s remarks mirrored American policy and sentiments of the day, calling for the fiery destruction of Japan’s militarist regime, which he acknowledged would require the killing of Japanese civilians. At other times, Rusch used his position to implore army officers to treat Nisei soldiers as individuals, not as members of another race. Occasionally, Rusch spoke of World War II in terms of a race war, of Japanese leaders bent on expelling Caucasians from Asia, casting Americans in the role of the fearless pioneers who fought off Native Americans to secure their westward expansion. Rusch remained committed to returning to help Japan rebuild after the war.

This chapter examines Hawaiʻi’s engagement with the Vietnam War through the lens of its wartime congressional delegation from 1964–1975. Unlike any other American state or territory, Hawaiʻi’s majority Asian American population had ties with Asian nations struggling against communist aggression. In the effort to assist them, the delegation – all Asian Americans – drew on their experience of combat and/or public service in the cause of self-determination and democracy. They were also guided by their exposure to the Hawaiian values they shared with the majority of their constituents, who endorsed the delegation’s effort to pursue peace through negotiations encouraged by limited military action. When the level of violence employed to achieve the ends of limited war in Indochina went beyond acceptable levels, they chose peace over any other consideration. Though their efforts to secure a negotiated peace “through aloha” failed, their preference for soft power still has resonance in conflict resolution circles; they were the first Hawaiians in Congress to grapple with a rising Hawai‘i sovereignty movement spurred by the impact of war at home, and in this and in other ways, they succeeded in building lasting local and national institutions for the promotion of peace across the Indo-Pacific.

Abstract Midway through William Gibson and Bruce Sterling’s The Difference Engine (1991), a historical science fiction set in nineteenth-century England, an automaton startles the protagonist Edward Mallory by whirring to life in the parlor of a foreign-service operative. The figure is a carved Japanese doll, fashioned entirely of bamboo, horsehair, and whalebone. It is lifelike enough to be mistaken for a kneeling lady, although stereotypes of the submissive Asian woman contribute to the deception. The urbane secret agent appears at ease with such marvels, so Mallory, who is jealous of his reputation as a scientist, recovers his composure with a show of expertise: he places the automaton in the context of other mechanical figures, com paring it to “one of those Jacquot-Droz toys, or Vaucanson’s famous duck” and observing that it moves with the precision of a “Maudsley lathe” (168).The habit of associating windup figures and clockwork dolls with the latest precision engineering from the workshops of Henry Maudslay, who got his start with Marc Brunel in Samuel Bentham’s dockyards, is an accurate reflection of early-nineteenth-century scientific culture.

In Xinjiang, Northwest China, upwards of one million mostly Muslim Turkic and other minority peoples are extra-judicially detained in internment camps for political ‘re-education’, serving long-term prison sentences, or in situations of forced labour. This chapter analyses the contemporary human rights crisis and how the Chinese state came to this policy juncture. Turkic Uyghurs have been disproportionately targeted because of its special status as a peripheral, linguistically and culturally separate people, with a history of two independent states prior to the establishment of the PRC in 1949. While the Chinese government has routinely represented this group as a ‘terrorist’ and ‘extremist’ threat since the onset of the US-led ‘Global War on Terror’ (GWoT) in 2001, in reality it perceives the Uyghurs as a dissident, anti-colonial force which it seeks to suppress by means of state violence and, in the past four years, state terror. The state’s ultimate goal is to protect the territorial integrity of the Chinese nation, shore up CCP regime legitimacy, and stabilise and secure the northwestern frontier for the purpose of achieving the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), the global infrastructure development strategy promoting a China-led Eurasian integration that sits at the centre of Xi Jinping’s ‘China Dream’.

Abstract The global pandemic of the coronavirus outbreak in 2020 caused the world economy to shake and world energy demand to weaken, impacting oil prices to fall dramatically. In this situation, oil and gas companies need to adapt by streamlining costs. PT Mega Energi Tbk (PTME) is an upstream holding public company with several subsidiaries that manage oil and gas block assets in Indonesia. In 2018, PTME acquired oil-producing assets "W" and established the ME-W company. At that time, the oil price was 80 $ a barrel for purchase, but the oil price crisis in 2020 changed the plan. It was about PTME’s strategy for keeping W’s assets and sharing that pledge with the bank. In 2018, PTME secured financing from a bank to purchase W assets and launch ME-W. At that time, the cash flow of ME-W could service this debt, but as the oil price fell, simply maintaining business operations became impossible for the company. ME-W was forced to reduce operational expenses and delay the expansion plan, but as a result, the company's cash flow performance wasn't as strong when the loan arrangement was signed. If ME-W can't pay the installment of the principal and interest on the loan, PTME will lose its rights to ME-W. For this reason, the company must refinance to pay off the prior loan. PTME has another subsidiary, ME-B manages asset B, which sells gas and is not affected by the decline in the oil price. ME-B will submit for ME-W loan refinancing. Due to the high business risk in the oil and gas industry and ME-B doesn’t have assets whose more value than the previous loan, the company submitted a new loan scheme, Reserve-Based Lending (RBL). The RBL method can make the bank feel more secure because the determining loan amount uses the company's cash flow performance. The bank will do a redetermination every six months to review the company's performance. ME-B has an advantage in processing loan requests. ME-B only needs to provide forecast entitlement that reflects the gas sales agreement until the loan end date based on reserve tail calculation. The RBL system can help PTME to settle previous loans and preserve ME-W assets. This paper can provide information that the RBL method is commonly utilized by oil and gas companies and financial institutions overseas and about the possibility of financing oil and gas projects in Indonesia using the same method by local banks.

Abstract In the Netherlands, a large number of onshore wells are near urban areas or close to forests where environmental emission and noise reduction are important to consider. With more than 23 different well site locations to be abandoned, a significant amount of collaboration is required to ensure there is minimal interruption and impact to the local community and the environment. To achieve this, the operator together with Baker Hughes as the project management lead, formulated a unique, low-impact solution with fully electrified equipment that mostly uses grid power. Alongside other service partners, the majority of the onsite equipment are electrically driven, such as the rigless well abandonment unit, cement pumps, ancillary equipment, and the slickline unit. A noise dampener and decibel readers were put in place to minimize and track sound emissions. Such collaboration and integration with all providers were carefully identified and mitigated through a series of non-technical risks (NTRs) to ensure compliance with local regulations. Extra steps were taken to ensure that smell and noise remain unnoticed by the surrounding environment. Frequent communications are sent to the public by the operator to keep everyone informed prior to any mobilization. After a one-year campaign, there have been zero LTI, zero accidents, zero non-compliance incidents and above all, safe and secured end-of-life oil wells in an urban setting with many more to follow suit. This paper will provide insight into the integrated operations of a well abandonment project in a unique urban setting and the challenges to successfully abandon wells of varying complexity. This project is to be accomplished in compliance with the local mining and environmental regulations with no remaining liabilities, all while limiting total project costs. The supply chain stepped up by providing a cost-effective solution through multi-party collaboration, multi-skilling, technology innovation, and logistical solutions. The project planning, start-up phase, and an overview of the first year of operations will be presented.

A number of proposed pipelines in western and northern Canada have highlighted critical path social risks associated with effectively engaging and consulting with impacted Aboriginal rightsholders along pipeline rights-of-way. Opening up new markets for Canada’s oil sands, shale and off-shore gas resources will require an expansion of the pipeline system in northern British Columbia, Alberta and the Northwest Territories. While navigating the regulatory approval process can be a formidable hurdle, a far greater challenge is how proponents manage the process of building relationships and consulting with affected Aboriginal communities. Failing to earn Aboriginal support for proposed projects can be a “show-stopper”. Exploration of new basins in Canada, driven by increased demand for energy in Asia, may compete with other land uses and constitutionally-protected rights and practices of indigenous peoples. Public, media and environmental response to new pipelines is often lead by the reaction of impacted communities. The task of identifying the social risks to a project, understanding the engagement process, fulfilling the regulatory consultation requirements of different jurisdictions, balancing impacts with benefits, managing issues and resolving disputes, communicating with the public and media effectively all require improved skills and approaches. The paper surveys the stakeholder engagement experience and differences in approaches for recently proposed major arctic gas and western oil pipeline projects, as well as pipelines to service Liquefied Natural Gas export facilities on the Pacific north coast, providing practical insights with possibly international application. Utilizing decision and risk analysis and scenario planning methodologies, applied to development of an Aboriginal engagement and consultation strategy, the paper examines how multi-billion dollar investments in new pipelines can be better secured by integrating stakeholder engagement into a project’s risk management design. With greater precision and improved approaches proponents can effectively manage social risks, reduce stakeholder conflict and associate project uncertainties.

Abstract This article presents a unique case study where operating company, Kuwait Oil Company (KOC), decided to make an attempt to perform open hole side-track through a very narrow side-track window along with other exiting conditions such as severe downhole losses and drill through very challenging formation. To deliver such project in first attempt requires very detailed planning, close coordination with various service partners such as directional drilling and cementing. Placing a good side-track cement plug in such formation was a challenge, and 2nd challenge to get kicked off from this narrow window in first attempt which was the key. In case of failure, whip stock option has to be planned as a contingency, which possess new challenging of opening a depleted zone leading to commingling low/high pressure formation which could cause a complicated problem such as borehole stability, leads to stuck pipe problem. Failure to side-track from open hole could end of planning to drill extra hole which required extra casing string to run which will put this project well over AFE and heavily impact on well objective. This open hole Side-track was planned because while drilling original hole (12 ¼" hole section) close to planned well TD, experienced complete losses. In attempt to cure the losses, LCM was pumped with no success. Performed thixotropic cement plug job for losses control. While performing thixotropic cement plug job, the cement flash set before finishing the displacement, leading to stuck string. After backing off string and fishing attempts, unable to recover the fish completely. Fish left in hole leading to only 68 ft of open hole window available to side-track where performing a cement job was impossible due to severe losses. Only way to secure the well is to try for open hole side-track. With existing sever loss situation for initiating open hole side-track was a serious challenge due to lack of side force and flow restriction to initiate the side-track. Extensive pre-job planning, peer review and risk assessment was done in coordination with various service partners to deliver such challenging side-track. A hazard analysis decision tree was established to pinpoint the risks and appropriate mitigation measures along with contingency plan put in place. A detailed side-track guidelines was shared and review with the field crew. The wellbore was successfully side-tracked through a challenging reactive shale formation in a first attempt using a customized kick-off BHA, which not only helped to avoid loss zone in side-tracked hole but also provide additional cost savings to the company. The good hole condition at the side-track point was important to enable smooth passing of the following directional BHA to achieve directional goals.

Abstract A brown field, offshore Sarawak, Malaysia, with multiple sub-layered laminated sands of varied pressure regimes and mobility ranges, was challenged by depletion, low mobility and uncertainty in the current fluid types and contacts. Optimal dynamic fluid characterization and testing techniques comprising both Wireline and Logging While Drilling (LWD) were applied in nine development wells to acquire reliable formation pressure data and collect representative fluid samples including fluid scanning. Some of the latest technologies were deployed during the dual crises of falling oil price and the Covid-19 pandemic. The S-profile wells were drilled using oil-base mud (OBM) with an average deviation of 60 degrees. Formation Pressure While Drilling (FPWD), Fluid Sampling While Drilling (FSWD) and wireline formation testing, and sampling were all utilized allowing appropriate assessment of zones of interest. Various probe types such as Conventional Circular, Reinforced Circular, Elongated, Extra-Elongated and Extended Range Focused were used successfully, ensuring that the right technology was deployed for the right job. Formation pressure and fluid samples were secured in a timely manner to minimize reservoir damage and optimize rig time without jeopardizing the data quality. As a classified crisis due to the pandemic, rather than delaying the operations, a Remote Operations Monitoring and Control Center was set-up in town to aid the limited crew at rig site. A high success rate was achieved in acquiring the latest formation pressure regimes, fluid gradients, scanning and sampling, allowing the best completion strategy to be implemented. With the selection of the appropriate probe type at individual sands, 336 pressure tests were conducted, 44 fluid gradients were established, 27 fluid identification (fluid-id / scanning) pump-outs were performed, and 20 representative formation fluid samples (oil, gas, water) were collected. Amongst the Layer-III, Layer-II and Layer-I sands, Layer-I was tight, with mobility < 1.0 mD/cP. Wireline focused probe sampling provided clean oil samples with 1.4 to-3.7 wt. % OBM filtrate contamination. The water samples collected from Layer-II during FSWD proved to be formation water and not injection water. The wells were thus completed as oil producers. Reliable fluid typing and PVT quality sampling at discrete depths saved rig time and eliminated the requirement of additional runs or services including Drill Stem Testing (DST). This case study has many firsts. It is the first time where latest fluid characterization and testing technologies in both Wireline and LWD were deployed for an alliance project in Malaysia and that too during dual crises of falling oil price and the pandemic aftermath. Overcoming various challenges including limited rig site manpower, there was no delay in completing the highly deviated wells with tight formations in a single drilling campaign and provided rig time savings. For the purpose of this case study, two wells have been discussed. First well used the wireline focused sampling technology and the second used the FSWD technology.

The global pandemic has brought renewed attention toward the everyday challenges in informal settlements. COVID-19 reminds us that southern urban life is rooted in ‘collective’ experiences where toilets and kitchens are shared by multiple families; where the categories of work and home, private and public space overlap; and where the majority live in vulnerable conditions. Despite these challenges, some of the most innovative and collective responses to COVID-19 have emerged from these areas. While informal settlements did face a host of risks and vulnerabilities during the pandemic, local responses have highlighted the resilience of informal settlement communities. However, few informal settlements are actually ‘resilient’ and any local responses must be robustly supported by system-wide change including support from local and national governments, improvements to built infrastructure, and improved access to health care services, among other priorities. The category of ‘informal settlements’ also captures a wide range of settlement types, from a legal slum to an informal settlement with no legal status, with many other types in between. This underscores the need to address fundamental issues that ‘perpetuate conditions of inequity, exclusion and vulnerability’ while also recognising the needs and contexts of different kinds of informal settlements. Whether COVID-19 helps governments recognise conditions of insecurity and vulnerability to address safe and secure housing and infrastructures remains to be seen. This is an update to the previous SSHAP brief on ‘COVID-19 in Informal Urban Settlements’ (March 2020). This evidence review highlights local responses, grassroots efforts, and challenges around COVID-19 recovery within urban informal settlements in South Asia. It focuses on specific examples from Karachi, Pakistan and Mumbai, India to inform policy responses for COVID-19 recovery and future epidemic preparedness and response. We show how local level responses are shaped in these cities where national and international responses have not reached communities at municipal and sub-municipal levels. This brief was written by Saba Aslam (IDS Alumni) and Megan Schmidt-Sane (IDS), with reviews from Professor Amita Bhide (Tata Institute of Social Sciences, India), Dr Asad Sayeed (Collective for Social Science Research, Pakistan), Annie Wilkinson (IDS), and contributions from Swati Mishra (LSHTM), Prerana Somani (LSHTM), Saleemullah Odho (Deputy Commissioner, Korangi district Karachi), Dr Noman Ahmed (NED University, Karachi), Tahera Hasan (Imkaan Foundation, Karachi), Atif Khan (District Health Officer, Korangi district Karachi), Dr Harris (District Focal person, Korangi), Aneeta Pasha (Interactive for Research and Development, Karachi), Yasmeen Shah (Pakistan Fisherfolk Forum), Ghulam Mustafa (HANDS Pakistan), and Dr Shehrin Shaila Mahmood (icddr,b). This brief is the responsibility of SSHAP.
