Risk Sharing in First, Second and Third Generation of Buyback Development Contracts [PDF]

Pizhūhishnāmah-i Iqtiṣād-i Inirzhī-i Īrān, 2014
Risk sharing between international oil companies and hosting countries is one of the most important issues in oil contracts. This paper studies the risk sharing between National Iranian Oil Company (Government) and IOCs in three generations of buy back ...

Financial Evaluation of Selected Buy-Back Contracts and Comparing with Production Sharing Contracts

Pizhūhishnāmah-i Iqtiṣād-i Inirzhī-i Īrān, 2016
Fiscal regime is one of the main differences between petroleum contracts. Fiscal regimes in oil contracts are divided in two main categories namely Concessionary and Contractual Systems. In contractual systems, the main difference between service and production sharing contracts is the way of compensation of contractor services which could be in cash ...

Atomically Precise Ag11 and Ag12 Nanocluster‐Assembled 2D Materials for Memristive and Neuromorphic Functionality

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Two‐dimensional Ag11 and Ag12 cluster‐assembled materials (CAMs) are synthesized, offering atomically precise platforms with tunable electronic properties. The resulting materials exhibit robust memristive switching and neuromorphic response, demonstrating their promise for advanced nanoelectronic and memory applications.

INCENTIVES EMBEDDED IN INSTITUTIONS: THE CASE OF SHARE CONTRACTS IN GHANAIAN COCOA PRODUCTION

The Developing Economies, 2000
Providing price incentives to farmers is usually considered essential for agricultural development. Although such incentives are important, regarding price as the sole explanatory factor is far from satisfactory in understanding the complex realities of agricultural production in Africa.

Decoding Synergistic Pathways in Bimetallic MOFs for Advanced Oxidation Processes

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review presents a unified framework linking metal pairing and framework design with electronic structure, redox cycling, oxidant activation, reactive‐species generation, and catalytic performance across photocatalytic and oxidant‐based BMOF‐AOPs. The resulting design principles guide the development of hydrolytically stable and efficient BMOFs for

Bioengineered Interfaces for Peripheral Nerve Sensory Restoration

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Half of amputees abandon their prosthetics for lack of feeling. This review charts the full path from peripheral nerve injury to restored sensation, through surgical, regenerative, noninvasive, and implanted approaches, and shows how injury type and interface material properties determine which strategy can deliver naturalistic feedback, and why ...

Toward Pore‐Engineered 3D‐Printed Materials for Sorption Water Harvesting, Interfacial Evaporation, and Radiative Cooling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Water harvesting, radiative cooling, and interfacial solar evaporation are fundamentally governed by coupled heat, mass, and light transport processes. These processes are mediated by pore architecture, including pore size, connectivity, and hierarchical organization.

Inductively Expandable Supraparticles as Microscopic Force Generators for Remote Mechanical Actuation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the combination of magnetic nanoparticles and functional blowing agents into supraparticles. Upon induction heating, they actuate via rapid gas generation or extensive volume expansion. These supraparticles lift up to 25 000 times their own mass and rapidly open cured epoxy resins, providing a versatile strategy for fast micron ...
