Повний текст джерелаOne of the oldest and most prominent definitions attributed to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is that given by Howard Bowen who refers to as the father of CSR for his “landmark” 1953 book, Social Responsibilities of the Businessman “The obligations of entrepreneurs to pursue those policies, to make those decisions, or to pursue desired lines of action in terms of the aims and values of our society” (Bowen, 1953a).Later, (Carroll, 1979a) focused rather on firm obligations to certain responsibilities to society that extended beyond the economic and legal domains to include employee and community welfare, the political and educational needs of society and service to improve the quality of human life and defined CSR as: “Social responsibility of business encompasses the economic, legal, ethical, and discretionary expectations that society has of organizations at a given point in time”. Nowadays, CSR is recognized at the global, national, regional, and even local level, mostly as a “voluntary contribution to sustainable development” (Jurkowska-Gomulka et al., 2021). The voluntary concept of CSR views CSR as firms’ commitment to sustainability that is beyond the legal requirements.However, CSR is become crucial part of a company’s strategy plan and a real concern of many industrial companies (Widad et al., 2021). As a result, several organizations have implemented different initiatives to encourage companies to adopt CSR approaches, such as Economic Cooperation Development, United Nations Global Compact, International Labour Organisation, and Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) (Shehabi et al., 2016). All these initiatives have contributed to developing a unified CSR framework known as ISO 26000 standard published by the International Standard Organization (ISO) in 2010 (Popa & Dabija, 2019). ISO 26000 defines CSR as: responsibility of an organization for the impacts of its decisions and activities on society and the environment, through transparent and ethical behavior by taking into account the stakeholder’s expectations (ISO, 2010). Socially responsible behavior of companies is expected nowadays by a wide scope of entities: mainly consumers, but also trading partners, contractors, and public authorities (Haseeb et al., 2019). Under these circumstances, CSR is no longer voluntary, but is becoming a strong moral or even legal duty (some groups of companies are legally obliged to report their non-financial activities in publicly available documents). Companies have become increasingly aware of the dangers that their activities can cause to the planet and to society in the future. Mindful company (MC) represents a company mindset of caring for society, community and environment which manifests behaviorally in the tempering on activities of which is both defeating and environmentally unsustainable

Повний текст джерелаLiquid effluents of oil refinery contain toxic selenium oxyanions and phenol, while gaseous effluents contain toxic CO/syngas. To remove the phenol and simultaneously reduce the selenite oxyanions, a fungal-bacterial co-culture of Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Delftia lacustris was developed. Two modes of co-cultures of the fungus and the bacterium were developed. The first being a freely growing bacterium and fungus (suspended growth co-culture), the second being the growth of the bacterial biomass encircling the fungal biomass (attached growth co-culture). Both types of fungal-bacterial co-cultures were incubated with varying concentrations of phenols with a fixed selenite concentration (10 mg/L). The suspended growth co-culture could degrade up to 800 mg/L of phenol and simultaneously reduce 10 mg/L of selenite with production of nano Se (0) having a minimum diameter of 3.58 nanometer. The attached growth co-culture could completely degrade 50 mg/L of phenol and simultaneously reduce selenite to nano Se(0) having a minimum diameter of 58.5 nm.In order to valorize the CO/syngas by bioconversion techniques an anaerobic methanogenic sludge was acclimatized to use CO as sole carbon substrate for a period of 46 days in a continuous stirred stank reactor, supplied with CO at 10 ml/min. 6.18 g/L acetic acid, 1.18 g/L butyric acid, and 0.423 g/L hexanoic acid were the highest concentrations of metabolites produced. Later, acids were metabolized at lower pH, producing alcohols at concentrations of 11.1 g/L ethanol, 1.8 g/L butanol and 1.46 g/L hexanol, confirming the successful enrichment strategy. The next experiment focused on the absence of trace element tungsten, and consecutively selenium on the previously CO acclimatized sludge under the same operating conditions. An in-situ synthesized co-polymeric gel of N-ter-butyl-acrylamide and acrylic acid was used to recover ethanol, propanol and butanol from a synthetic fermentation broth. The scope of repeated use of the gel for the alcohol recovery was investigated and every time approximately 98% alcohol was recovered

Повний текст джерелаEsta dissertação de mestrado tem como objetivo compartilhar os resultados de uma investigação sobre as implicações estratégicas das alianças e redes de relacionamento estabelecidas no setor de downstream, área de distribuição de combustíveis, no Brasil, um dos que apresenta maior faturamento e que mais arrecada impostos no país. Primeiro, apresentamos fundamentos teóricos pertinentes à pesquisa sobre alianças e redes estratégicas, inclusive tipologias de alianças, além das teorias sobre a capacidade destas em alavancar as oportunidades e neutralizar as ameaças no nível da indústria. Além disso, foram considerados modelos conceituais e outras ferramentas para conduzir análises estratégicas pela ótica relacional, ou seja, no que se refere às alianças e redes formadas por estas. Em seguida, de acordo com a metodologia de estudo de caso de Yin, adotamos a estratégia de triangulação dos métodos. Assim, dados foram coletados por meio de investigação documental, levantamento de percepções do tipo survey e, em alguns casos, observação participativa. Com os resultados obtidos no âmbito do estudo de casos múltiplos, evidenciamos que a análise na ótica relacional, que leva em conta as implicações estratégicas das redes nas quais as empresas atuam, agrega valor às análises tradicionais, contribuindo com novos insights para a tomada de decisão estratégica dessas empresas.
This master`s dissertation has the objective of sharing the results of an investigation about the strategic implications of alliances and relationship networks established in the downstream sector, fuel distribution area, in Brazil, which earns the highest revenues and pays the highest taxes. First, we present theoretical issues pertinent to the research on alliances and strategic networks, including alliances typologies, in addition to theories on the capacities of these alliances to leverage opportunities and neutralize industry level threats. Besides that, it was considered conceptual models and other tools to conduct strategic analysis through the relational view, that is, related to the alliances and networks constituted by these. Following that, in accordance with Yin`s case study methodology, a strategic triangulation of methods was adopted. Therefore, data was collected through documental investigation, surveys of management perception and, in some cases, participative observation. With the results attained in the ambit of multiple case-studies, it was evidenced that the relational view, that is the one which takes into account strategic implications from the networks, adds value to traditional analysis, contributing with new insights on the strategic decision making of these companies.

Повний текст джерелаLa tesis examina los patrones que impulsan la gobernanza y la globalización de Qatar Petroleum (QP) y el sector del petróleo y el gas. La entidad estatal se convirtió desde diciembre de 2010 hasta hoy en el líder mundial de la industria del gas natural licuado (GNL) con una producción y exportación de 77,4 (tm/año). El plan de QP es reiniciar el desarrollo del Campo Norte, el mayor yacimiento de gas del mundo, tras una moratoria de 12 años. Pero a pesar de su importancia, hay poco en la literatura académica que explique por qué existe QP, y cómo se gobierna y globaliza. Esta tesis pretende llenar ese vacío. Aborda la cuestión: ¿Cuáles son los patrones que impulsan la gobernanza y la globalización de QP? Para responderla, consideramos tres patrones principales que explican nuestro caso de estudio: 1) las políticas de las élites; 2) la capacidad institucional; y 3) la naturaleza de los recursos. Al analizar estos patrones y sus factores asociados, la tesis desarrolla un enfoque transdisciplinar que integra Relaciones Internacionales, Historia, Economía Política Internacional, Ciencia Política y Sociología. La gobernanza y la globalización de la QP reflejan: 1) Las políticas de las élites: Las políticas de nacionalización, privatización y liberalización reflejan las lógicas, las estrategias y los objetivos de la élite gobernante qatarí para la acumulación de poder y la supervivencia. 1.1. La nacionalización y el legado colonial. El Imperio Británico y el APOC tuvieron una gran influencia en el surgimiento de Qatar y su industria petrolera. La APOC y las ""Siete Hermanas"" ejercieron un monopolio absoluto sobre los recursos de Qatar, esta práctica generó una ola de nacionalismo y nacionalización de los recursos petroleros y la creación de las empresas nacionales de petróleo coordinada bajo el paraguas de la OPEP. La QP fue creada en 1974 y existe por la razón de controlar los recursos de petróleo y gas por parte de la élite gobernante qatarí. 1.2 La privatización parcial por la ""puerta de atrás"" ha transformado a QP de una administración burocrática estatal en una entidad con mentalidad comercial y, por lo tanto, ha alterado su identidad y comportamiento frente a las instituciones estatales. 1.3 La liberalización del sector energético nacional está estrechamente relacionada con la privatización parcial de QP y sus subsidiarias. (2) La capacidad institucional (incluida la capacidad administrativa y la toma de decisiones). Hemos comprobado que el sector se rige por el modelo de gobernanza principal (elite gobernante) agente (QP). Este sistema permite al Estado qatarí actuar como autoridad principal, delegando en su agente QP la misión nacional, los objetivos y las funciones a desarrollar. El Emir, es quien dicta la política de la empresa nacional, su presupuesto, los nombramientos, las inversiones o los contratos con las empresas internacionales de petróleo (EIP). (3) La naturaleza de los recursos: QP desarrolla petróleo, gas y GNL y otros recursos; el alto nivel de riesgo y la dificultad de explotar los recursos de petróleo y gas son una pauta importante en el desarrollo de la industria de los hidrocarburos. La industria del gas, que implica un alto riesgo de capital e inversión y tecnología, obligó a los gobernantes jeques Khalifa y Hamad a establecer alianzas estratégicas con las EIP para gestionar los riesgos geológicos y de mercado. El enorme tamaño de North Field ha requerido la participación de gigantes de la energía como ExxonMobil, Total, Shell, BP y otros. Concluimos que las políticas de privatización y liberalización son los factores-patrón más importantes en la gobernanza y la globalización de la QP y el sector del petróleo y el gas.
The thesis examines the patterns that drive the governance and globalisation of Qatar Petroleum (QP) and the oil and gas sector. The state-owned entity became from December 2010 until today, the world leader in of liquefied natural gas industry (LNG) with production and exportation of 77,4 (mt/y). QP’s plan is to the restart development of the North Field, the world biggest gas field after the 12-year Moratorium. But despite its importance, there is little in the academic literature that explains why QP exist, and how is governed and globalised. This thesis seeks to fill the gap. It addresses the question: What are the patterns driving the governance and globalisation of QP. In order to answer this, we consider three main patterns that explain our case study: 1) elite’s policies; 2) institutional capacity, and ;3) nature of resources. In analysing these patterns and their factor-patterns associated, the thesis develops a transdisciplinary approach that integrates International Relations, History, International Political Economy, Political Science and Sociology. Governance and globalisation of QP reflect: 1) Elite’s policies: Nationalization, privatisation, liberalisation policies reflect the logics, the strategies and the goals of the Qatari ruling elite for the accumulation of power and survival. 1.1. Nationalization and Colonial legacy. The British Empire and APOC had a major influence on the emergence of Qatar and its oil industry. APOC and the “Seven Sisters” exercised an absolute monopoly over Qatar’s resources, this practice generated a wave of nationalism and nationalization of oil resources and the creation of the NOCS coordinated under the umbrella of OPEC. QP was created in 1974 and exists for the reason of controlling oil and gas resources by the Qatari ruling elite. The control of the oil and gas sector and the profits obtained means the domination of the two main power resources of the Qatari regime of power: the oil sector and capital. 1.2 Partial Privatization through the “back-door” has transformed QP from a state bureaucratic administration into a commercially minded entity and thus altered its identity and behaviour vis-à-vis state institutions. 1.3 The liberalisation of the domestic energy sector is strongly interlinked with the partial privatisation of QP and its subsidiaries. The lifting of controls on foreign participation of IOCs in the oil and gas energy sector provided QP and its subsidiaries with the financial resources to venture into overseas investments. (2) The institutional capacity (including administrative capacity and decision-making). We have found that the sector is governed by the principal governance model (elite ruling) agent (QP). This system allows the Qatari state to act as the principal authority, delegating to its agent QP the national mission, the objectives and the functions to be developed. The Emir as chairman of the Supreme Council for Economic Affairs and Investment is the one who dictates the policy of the national company, its budget, appointments, investments, or contracts with IOCs. (3) The nature of resources: QP develops oil, gas and LNG and other resources; the high level of risk and the difficulty of exploiting oil and gas resources are an important pattern in the development of the hydrocarbon industry. The gas industry involving high capital and investment risk and technology forced Sheikhs rulers Khalifa and Hamad to establish strategic alliances with IOCs to manage geological and market risks. The enormous size of North Field has required the involvement of energy giants such as ExxonMobil, Total, Shell, BP, and others. We conclude that privatisation and liberalisation policies are the most important factor-patterns in the governance and globalisation of QP and the oil and gas sector.

The oil industry has grown in recent decades in terms of quantity of facilities and process complexity. However, human and material losses still occur due to major accidents at the facility. The analysis of these accidents reveals that many involve human failures that, if prevented, could avoid such accidents. These failures, in turn, can be identified, modeled and quantified through Human Reliability Analysis (HRA), which forms a basis for prioritization and development of safeguards for preventing or reducing the frequency of accidents. The most advanced and reliable HRA methods have been developed and applied in nuclear power plant operations, while the petroleum industry has usually applied Quantitative Risk Analysis (QRA) focusing on process safety in terms of technical aspects of the operation and equipment. This thesis demonstrates that the use of HRA in oil refining and petrochemical operations allows the identification and analysis of factors that can influence the behavior of operators as well as the potential human errors that can contribute to the occurrence of an accident. Existing HRA methodologies, however, were mainly developed for the nuclear industry. Thus, they may not reflect the specificities of refining and petrochemical plants regarding the interaction of the operators with the plant, the failure modes of the operators and the factors that influence their actions. Thus, this thesis presents an HRA methodology developed specifically for use in this industry, HERO - Human Error in Refinery Operations HRA Methodology. The Phoenix HRA methodology was used as a basis, which has three layers i) a crew response tree (CRT), which models the interaction between the crew and the plant; ii) a human response model, modeled through fault trees, that identifies the possible crew failures modes (CFMs); and (iii) "contextual factors" known as performance influencing factors (PIFs), modeled through Bayesian networks. In addition to building on such a structure, HERO's development relied on interviews with HRA specialists, visitations to a refinery and its control room, and analysis of past oil refineries accidents - four accidents were analyzed in detail. The methodology developed maintains the three-layer structure and has a guideline flowchart for the construction of the CRT, in order to model the team-plant interactions in oil refining and petrochemical operations; it also features CFMs and PIFs developed specifically for this industry, with definitions that make them easily relatable by an analyst. Finally, the methodology was applied to three potential accidental scenarios of refinery operations. In one of these scenarios, it was combined with a QRA to illustrate how an HRA can be applied to a traditional QRA and to demonstrate the influence of PIFs and of human error probability on the final risk. The use of this methodology for HRA of refineries and petrochemical plants operations can enhance this industry safety and allow for solid riskbased decisions.
A indústria de petróleo teve grande crescimento nas últimas décadas em termos de quantidade de instalações e complexidade de processo. No entanto, perdas humanas e materiais ainda ocorrem devido a acidentes graves nas instalações. A análise desses acidentes revela que muitos envolvem falhas humanas que poderiam ser prevenidas de forma a evitar tais acidentes. Estas falhas, por sua vez, podem ser identificadas, modeladas e quantificadas através da Análise de Confiabilidade Humana (ACH), que forma uma base para priorização e desenvolvimento de salvaguardas na prevenção ou redução da frequência de acidentes. Os métodos de ACH mais avançados e confiáveis têm sido desenvolvidos e aplicados nas operações de controle de plantas nucleares; já a indústria de petróleo tem usualmente aplicado a Análise Quantitativa de Risco (AQR) com foco na segurança de processo em termos técnicos da operação e equipamentos. Esta tese demonstra que o uso da ACH em operações de refino e petroquímica possibilita a identificação e análise dos fatores que podem influenciar o comportamento do operador bem como as potenciais falhas humanas que podem contribuir para a ocorrência de um acidente. As metodologias de ACH existentes, no entanto, foram desenvolvidas para a indústria nuclear. Desta forma, elas não refletem as especificidades de refino e petroquímica no que se refere à interação dos operadores com a planta, aos modos de falha dos operadores e aos fatores que influenciam suas ações. Assim, esta tese apresenta uma metodologia de ACH desenvolvida especificamente para uso nessa indústria, a HERO - Human Error in Refinery Operations HRA Methodology. Como base, utilizou-se a Metodologia Phoenix, que possui três camadas i) uma árvore de resposta da equipe (crew response tree - CRT), que modela a interação da equipe com a planta; ii) um modelo de resposta humana, modelado através de árvores de falhas, que identifica os possíveis modos de falhas da equipe (crew failures modes - CFMs); e iii) os “fatores contextuais” conhecidos como fatores de desempenho ou performance influencing factors (PIFs), modelados através de redes Bayesianas. Além de basear-se em tal estrutura, o desenvolvimento da HERO apoiou-se em entrevistas com especialistas em ACH, visitas a uma refinaria e sua sala de controle e na análise de estudos de acidentes passados em refinarias – foram analisados em detalhe quatro acidentes. A metodologia desenvolvida mantém a estrutura de três camadas e possui um fluxograma-guia para construção da CRT, de forma a modelar as interações equipe-planta na operação de refino e petroquímicas; ela também apresenta CFMs e PIFs desenvolvidos especificamente para esta indústria, com definições que os tornam facilmente identificáveis por um analista. Por fim, a metodologia foi aplicada a três cenários acidentais de operações de refinaria. Em um destes cenários, ela foi conjugada a uma AQR de forma a ilustrar como uma ACH pode ser aplicada a uma tradicional AQR e para demonstrar a influência dos PIFs e da Probabilidade de Erro Humano no risco final. Espera-se que o uso da metodologia proposta nesta tese poderá aumentar a segurança em refinarias e petroquímicas e permitir sólidas decisões baseadas no risco.

Повний текст джерелаEsta tesis se enmarca dentro de dos proyectos relacionados con la recuperación (tratamiento + reutilización) de aguas residuales generadas por la industria del petróleo y gas. El objetivo del primer proyecto fue la reutilización de agua residual generada por la industria del petróleo y gas mediante el tratamiento de los denominados efluentes "downstream" con procesos de oxidación avanzados (AOPs). Para ello, se estudiaron varios procesos AOPs fotocatalíticos y basados en ozono, los cuales se aplicaron, en primer lugar, para el tratamiento de un agua sintética con una composición compleja representativa de agua residual de refinería (SRW). Tras los resultados obtenidos con SRW, se investigó el rendimiento del tratamiento en tres aguas residuales reales diferentes con el objetivo de alcanzar los requisitos para la reutilización del agua en la planta. El segundo proyecto se enfocó en el tratamiento de agua residual procedente del proceso de arenas petrolíferas (OSPW), que actualmente se encuentra almacenada en estanques debido a la política de descarga cero en la región de Alberta, en Canadá. En primer lugar, se compararon los tratamientos de ozonización y UV con diferentes oxidantes y pH. El tratamiento con UV/Fenton resultó ser un método eficaz para eliminar los componentes orgánicos presentes en el efluente que causan toxicidad aguda. También se investigaron las actividades catalíticas de catalizadores de carbón activado granulado previamente dopados con N o N/S y Fe (III). Se realizó una selección de los catalizadores más prometedores mediante diseño factorial fraccional en la ozonización catalítica de un agua sintética. Posteriormente, los materiales seleccionados se investigaron más a fondo para el tratamiento de OSPW real. Se estudiaron, además, procesos AOP basados en ozono en combinación con H2O2 y UVC con el objetivo de alcanzar la mineralización de los contaminantes orgánicos, incluidos los ácidos nafténicos presentes en el efluente. Un aumento en la mineralización repercute positivamente en la reducción de la toxicidad. Por primera vez se presenta el estudio de la combinación de UVC con tratamientos basados en O3 para tratar la OSPW.
This thesis has been developed within two projects dealing with the reclamation of wastewater generated by the oil & gas industry. The first project aimed at water reuse in the oil & gas sector treating the downstream effluents by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). For this, several photo-based and ozone-based AOPs were assessed in detail starting from a synthetic refinery wastewater (SRW) with a complex composition. After the initial screening on SRW, the treatment performance of the different AOPs was investigated with three different real wastewaters, aiming at reaching the requirements for water reuse in the plant. The second project considered the treatment of oil sands process water (OSPW) currently stored in tailing ponds because of the zero-discharge policy in Alberta region, in Canada. Firstly, catalytic ozone-based and UV-based treatments with different oxidants and operating pH were compared. UV/Fenton treatment was considered as an effective method for removing the organic components present in the effluent that cause acute toxicity. The catalytic activities of granular activated carbon-based materials previously doped with heteroatom (N or N/S) and Fe (III) were also investigated. For catalytic ozonation of a synthetic water, a catalyst selection was performed based on the fractional factorial design. Afterwards, the selected materials were investigated further for the treatment of real OSPW. The use of ozone-based AOPs including H2O2 and UVC to achieve mineralization was examined in detail, while also aiming at reduction in toxicity arising from the organic components including naphthenic acids present in the effluent. UVC combination to O3-based treatments was studied for the first time to treat OSPW.

Повний текст джерелаChina has experienced a phenomenal growth during the last years. With this economic
development comes a great need for energy. Energy to fuel the domestic production. As the
domestic resources in China have shown to be insufficient, one way to get the energy
demanded is to go onto the international market. China has, thus, started undertaking FDI in
oil to be able to feed the domestic needs. In this thesis we will discuss these investments and
investigate if prevalent theories on FDI can explain the FDI that have taken place. Our
conclusion is that the FDI undertaken has been resource-seeking investment. Since the
Chinese oil companies are state-owned and regulated so that they can not act as profitmaximizing
firms, our thesis will show that the Chinese FDI in the oil sector therefore only
partly can be explained by the theories on FDI.
