Exploratory drilling activity on the part of shale gas developers remains low despite widespread coverage in the media and announcements that the UK is to “go all
out for shale”. Although regulation must remain thorough and robust, there is a risk that the complex approvals process will hinder production. Industry, government
and regulatory authorities should ensure that the institutional capacity is in place to make the approvals process efficient so that the potential benefits of shale gas can be realised.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

IN THE COURT OF PEOPLE
ISSUE / CONTENTION RIL RESPONSE
Deliberate reduction in gas production and
hoarding of natural gas
Not even an iota of substance in the allegation. This allegation betrays
complete disregard of the technical realities of the process of
production of natural gas from reservoirs.
Hoarding is technically impossible. The AIDP (Addendum to the Initial
Development Plan) was based on seismic data that suggested
connectivity between the small deposits outside the main channel, in
which case it would help drain the channel by adding wells in these
areas. Experience has shown that these studies – which are based not
on actual drilling but by use of other equipment – did not give the
correct picture due to the nature of the sands, and that in fact there is
no connectivity between these deposits and the main channel.
There is a dispute between the Contractor and the Union of India on
the issue of whether drilling more wells would produce more, and will
be resolved in the arbitration proceedings after factual and expert
evidence.
It is a known and an accepted fact that early estimates of production
from gas fields are often unpredictable and may prove to be incorrect.
Estimates given as to production and reserves are necessarily subject
to significant variation.
Besides, the only means by which the Contractor can recover its
contract costs is by producing and selling gas from the KG-D6 Block.
In particular, the Contractor does not recover the time value of money
associated with its investment of risk capital (eg, cost of capital) and
delaying recovery of contract costs by hoarding gas would increase
such costs (which are borne by the Contractor).
Complaints about hike in price of natural
gas
Requirement that gas be sold at market price reflects the central
objectives of the NELP. The NELP PSC mandates that gas be sold at
the market price.
2.
ISSUE / CONTENTION RIL RESPONSE
The revision of price based on the formula proposed by the
Rangarajan Committee, will benefit PSUs such as ONGC and OIL.
The Contractor produces only some 15% of the total quantity of
domestically produced gas to which the pricing formula or basis
applies. The Petitioners ignore the fact that 70% of domestically
produced gas comes from PSUs such as ONGC and OIL. The main
beneficiaries of an increase in the price of domestically produced gas
will be the PSUs and the Government itself (through royalties, taxes
and an increased share of profit petroleum).
Failure to effect cost recovery disallowance
and credit BP's consideration for
assignment of 30% Participating Interest
Allegation is misconceived for the following reasons:
• Consideration that was paid by RIL was for a package of 23
blocks (being 30% share of rights and obligations under the
relevant production sharing contracts) of which 21 was approved
by GOI.
• Having assigned 30% participating interest in the 21 blocks, RIL
gave up all future interest in any share of profit petroleum and
right to recover contract costs in respect of that 30% participating
interest.
• RIL have not by any stretch of imagination recovered its contract
costs by selling 30 % participating interests in the KG D6 Block to
BP.
• Assignment of interest/ farming out is a common practice in the oil
and gas industry.
Failure to take action on CAG report The issues brought about through the CAG are now pending with the
PAC (Public Accounts Committee) and the Contractor has fully
complied with all the requirements of the audit process.
Contractor’s failure to relinquish acreage Contractor did not retain any discovery area in contravention of the
PSC.
The Contractor was entitled to the entire contract area as a discovery
area because the available information and technical analysis and
3.
ISSUE / CONTENTION RIL RESPONSE
interpretation of that data appeared to demonstrate presence of a
multiple-channel Turbiditic reservoir system existing almost
throughout the Contract Area.
The CAG appears not to have appreciated the relinquishment
provisions in the PSC.
RIL has in fact relinquished some 70% of the Contract Area and the
Government has issued an order to relinquish about 81% of the
contract area. RIL has retained only those areas in respect of which it
holds a mining lease or is to file a development plan.
Natural Gas should be sold at rupee terms
and not at US dollars
The entire PSC accounting is in US Dollars and the price of the gas
has necessarily to be fixed in dollar terms. Oil is also priced in US
Dollars under the PSC.
Composition of Rangarajan Committee -
lack of technical experts
Composition of the Rangarajan Committee was as follows: (a) Dr C.
Rangarajan, Chairman of the Economic Advisory Council to the Prime
Minister; (b) Justice Shri Jagannadha Rao, former Judge of the
Supreme Court; (c) Shri B. K. Chaturvedi, Member (Energy) of the
Planning Commission (and former Cabinet Secretary and Petroleum
Secretary in Government of India); (d) Prof Ramprasad Sengupta,
Distinguished Fellow of the India Development Foundation and former
Professor of Economics, JNU; (e) Shri J. M. Mauskar, retired Special
Secretary to the Government of India and former Joint Secretary in
Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas; (f) Shri Joeman Thomas, former
Managing Director of ONGC Videsh Limited (a Company engaged in
exploration and production activities in several overseas countries
with investment running in several billions US $); (g) Dr K. P.
Krishnan, Principal Secretary (Coordination) of the Government of
Karnataka; as Convenor and (h) Shri Giridhar Aramane, Joint
Secretary (Exploration) of the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas as
Secretary to the Committee.
4.
ISSUE / CONTENTION RIL RESPONSE
Gold Plating of costs by RIL - as indicated
by CAG, including the award of various
contracts to Aker
Allegations are baseless and misconceived. Under the PSC
mechanism, the Contractor does not have an incentive to “gold plate”
its capital expenditure as alleged or at all. Under the cost-recovery
and production-sharing mechanism employed in the PSC the
Contractor derives absolutely no benefit from spending more by way
of contract costs than is necessary to carry out exploration and
development operations.
It is the Contractor who bears the risk, petroleum may not be
produced in sufficient quantities for it to recover costs associated with
exploration and development of the block, but the Government stands
to receive a share of profit petroleum from the day that production
commences.
The presumption that the Aker group is related to RIL and that,
through this group, RIL is siphoning off money and gold plating is
completely baseless, false unfounded and a figment of the petitioners’
imagination. The petitioners identify no basis whatsoever for the
alleged “presumption” beyond the fact that the Aker group won a
number of contracts following the PSC tendering process.
The holding company for the Aker group is Aker ASA, which is a
Norwegian company listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange. There is
absolutely no corporate relationship (direct or indirect) between RIL
and any companies in the Aker group. RIL has no financial interest in
or with Aker or its affiliated companies other than the contracts
entered into with it for the purposes of the development of the KG-D6
Block. RIL has derived no benefit (directly or indirectly) from awarding
the contracts in question to Aker. There is no “behind the scenes”
arrangement whereby Aker has conferred any benefit or advantage on
RIL for having awarded the contracts in question to Aker as alleged or
at all.
