Title: How to scrutinise a Production Sharing Agreement: A guide for the oil and gas sector based on experience from the Caspian region Authors: Ahmadov, I.; Artemyev, A.; Aslanly, K.; Rzaev, I.; Shaban, I. Abstract: This guide discusses the provisions of a particular type of oil and gas contract, the Production Sharing Agreement (PSA). While the guide is aimed at a general civil society readership, it draws particularly on experience from Kazakhstan. The purpose of this guide is to give an accessible account of some key characteristics of PSAs, with a focus on revenue issues, and to suggest action points for civil society organisations involved with monitoring extractive industries. Indeed, in recent years the public in resource-rich states has become increasingly concerned about the management of extractive industry revenues.

Title: Modern challenges of oil producing countries and the ways for establishing a non-oil dependent economy in Azerbaijan (Comparative approach) Authors: Nuriyev, Mahammad; Shahgaldiyev, Eldar; Salmanli, Zaka Abstract: This paper deeply analyses Azerbaijan’s oil business and the level of its hydrocarbon dependence. It examines the ways and methods of reducing oil dependence in Azerbaijan’s economy and analyses the modern challenges of oil producing nations in their oil business. Many comparisons and determinations are shown out of the oil producing countries’ practices for restructuring their economy to diminish the hydrocarbon dependence. The comparisons statistically examine the economic, financial and other fiscal indications. There is also an examination of the institutions related to this oil business as OPEC (The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries), Sovereign Wealth Find (SWF), State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR) and other authorities. The purpose of this research is to show the practical reasons and the ways to smoothly shift Azerbaijan from economic oil dependence into a prosperous and non-oil dependent nation. The study is in essence a comparative analysis of the oil-rich countries’ economic dependency on oil and the implied methods by the countries for shifting these nations into long-term economic prosperity. It also takes a look at the economic and socio-political situation of the economic structures whose import and export balances are regulated mainly by the oil business.
