This research examines Nigeria’s environmental legal framework and the unresolved issues amidst environmental pollution and degradation in the country. Economic development activities, especially in the oil and gas sector, accelerate the deterioration of the environmental quality and play a prominent role in the transmission of communicable diseases in Nigeria and devastation of the land for agriculture. This paper, therefore, examines the various sources of Nigeria's environmental problems, its existing legal and institutional arrangements and suggests strategies for effective environmental management in Nigeria.

The main purpose of this article lies in providing the results of theoretical and practical studies of indirect taxation of the oil and gas sector of the northern region (in this case, the Komi Republic) and its role in the formation of budget tax revenues. The research novelty involves the development of the theory of taxation of environmental management and the justification of the need to develop a regional tax policy in order to strengthen its influence on the formation of tax revenues of the budget of the northern region. The theoretical and practical significance of the study lies in fixing the current problems in this sphere. The theory and methodology of this study is based on the theories of taxation of environmental management and the regional economy. To achieve this goal, the authors have employed the methods of dynamic and static analysis of the effectiveness of indirect taxation of the oil and gas sector. The hypothesis of the study determined the absence of dependence on the growth of production and sales of hydrocarbons and indirect taxes from the oil and gas sector to the consolidated budget of the northern region. To confirm this hypothesis, the authors have studied theoretical approaches to the taxation of value added tax and excise taxes of the oil and gas sector, analyzed the changes in hydrocarbon production volumes as an objective basis for taxation, and defined the role of indirect taxation of the oil and gas sector in the formation of the federal and consolidated budgets of the northern constituent entities of the Russian Federation. For the distinguished problems, practical recommendations are provided. The authors highlight the necessity of using indirect taxation as an instrument of regional tax policy, as well as strengthening the influence of value added tax and excise taxes on the oil and gas sector of the northern region of Russia on the formation of budget revenues.

Tax Regulation

Subject. Under rapid changes in the external economic environment, new forms and methods of State regulation of oil and gas industries, especially, improving the taxation and tax regulation instruments become relevant. Objectives. The study aims to provide an original interpretation of methods of improving the tax administration of major taxpayers in the oil and gas sector applied at the present stage. Methods. I employ normative and holistic approaches to examine taxation efficiency in the oil and gas sector, general scientific and special methods of scientific cognition, i.e. retrospective, system analysis, observation, classification, instrumental methods of grouping, sampling, comparison and synthesis, as well as evolutionary and dynamic analysis. Results. I consider basic problems and solutions in the sphere of tax administration of major taxpayers of Russian oil and gas industries. The paper offers a package of measures and recommendations aimed at improving the efficiency of tax regulation, underpins the applied approach to tax administration of organizations operating in the oil and gas sector. Conclusions and Relevance. Our country needs a comprehensive program for tax administration of the entire technological cycle: from upstream operations to full-scale import substitution of consumer goods.

Among other obligations imposed under the forestry permit, watershed rehabilitation planting is perceived by the upstream oil and gas sector as the most complex challenge to conquer. Despite its poor track in fulfilling timeline and required result, there are also other challenges to consider, for instance lack of critical location, weather, fire, land tenure, community habit and capability, and cost optimization. In attempt to respond these challenges, an innovation in management system is constructed at PT Pertamina Hulu Mahakam, embracing and tailoring all related challenges, difficulties, and complexities, escalating the activity to be beyond compliance. So that it will be able to deliver more than merely avoid the identified potential risks towards company. The management system, called PIRAMIDA TINGGI (Pemberdayaan Masyarakat untuk Melestarikan Hutan di Dunia demi Ketahanan Energi Nasional), actively involves government, community, and business sector as equilateral triangle that work together to perform watershed rehabilitation planting. Developed using ISO 9001:2015 process approach namely PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act), the PIRAMIDA TINGGI system is in line as well with NAWACITA (President Joko Widodo’s vision, mission and program). To encounter other issue found during field work, this system is equipped as well with another innovation tool named PARIDA, a geospatial mobile-desk top-web application that easily able to map and identify vegetation in real time for further geo-analyzing multi-purposes, to be operated by local community. Full set implementation of this system has benefitted all parties. To Company in form of significant cost efficiency around 13.9 MUSD and 7 days’ faster result delivery besides obligation fulfillment, for others in form of broader advantage of proven sustainability project that has gave contribution to 5P (People, Planet, Prosperity, Partnership and Peace), objectives required by UN Sustainable Development Goals 2030.

Oil And Gas Sector

The modern oil and gas industry is heavily dependent on the processes and trends driven by the accelerating digitalization of the economy. Thus, the digitalization of the oil and gas sector has become Russia’s top priority, which involves a technological and structural transformation of all production processes and stages.Aim. The presented study aims to identify the major trends and prospects of development of the Russian oil and gas sector in the context of its digitalization and formation of the digital economy.Tasks. The authors analyze the major trends in the development of the oil and gas industry at a global scale and in Russia with allowance for the prospects of accelerated exploration of the Arctic; determine the best practices of implementation of digital technologies by oil and gas companies as well as the prospects and obstacles for the subsequent transfer of digital technologies to the Russian oil and gas industry.Methods. This study uses general scientific methods, such as analysis, synthesis, and scientific generalization.Results. Arctic hydrocarbons will become increasingly important to Russia in the long term, and their exploration and production will require the implementation of innovative technologies. Priority directions for the development of many oil and gas producers will include active application of digital technologies as a whole (different types of robots that could replace people in performing complex procedures), processing and analysis of big data using artificial intelligence to optimize processes, particularly in the field of exploration and production, processing and transportation. Digitalization of the oil and gas sector is a powerful factor in the improvement of the efficiency of the Russian economy. However, Russian companies are notably lagging behind in this field of innovative development and there are problems and high risks that need to be overcome to realize its potential for business and society.Conclusions. Given the strategic importance of the oil and gas industry for Russia, its sustainable development and national security, it is recommendable to focus on the development and implementation of digital technologies. This is crucial for the digitalization of long-term projection and strategic planning, assessment of the role and place of Russia and its largest energy companies in the global market with allowance for a maximum number of different internal and external factors.
