{"title":"Optimal Allocation of Future Oil Production under Uncertainty: Lessons from Nigeria for Emerging Oil Producing Countries","authors":"Kaase Gbakon, J. Ajienka, O.

Using the Reference Energy System developed by Gbakon et al. (2021) for crude oil utilization through a network of possible end-uses, the framework is tested under different scenarios. Furthermore, the framework is coupled to a Monte Carlo formulation of the problem, which allows greater flexibility in addressing questions of the likelihood of attaining desirable policy outcomes such as petroleum product self-sufficiency. Within this solution structure, a family of curves is generated, which represents the spread of outcomes. Scenario analysis, for example, shows that under 'Energy Transition' scenario, oil export ratio declines from 43% in 2025 to 6% in 2040. Whereas, under the 'Business-as-Usual' scenario, the oil export ratio declines from 37% in 2025 to 0% in 2034, with clear consequences for foreign exchange earnings. While under the ‘Stated Policy' scenario oil export ratio declines from 60% in 2025 to 54% in 2040. Implications for net system benefits and the respective drivers are further interrogated.","PeriodicalId":153770,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Science & Technoledge","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123584572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is an explanatory research that designs research for obtaining information about the prospects for developing fish farming on the coast of Mallusetasi Beach, Barru Regency, based on environmental aspects. A sampling of the location of the sample is carried out by observing and surmising that these locations have the potential and prospects for the development of fish farming. Station 1 is located around the hatchery in front of Dutungan Island, Station 2 is around the port or crossing point to Dutungan Island, and Station 3 is at the pier in front of Dungan Island. Water quality observations, such as current velocity, brightness, temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, and salinity, were carried out in situ. Furthermore, the data were collected, processed, and analyzed by descriptive analysis. The results showed that based on aquaculture requirements that refer to water quality data such as current speed, brightness, temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, and salinity, they are still appropriate and have prospects for development for marine fish farming, for example, green clams, blood/feather clams, oysters, seaweed, baronang fish, grouper and snapper.","PeriodicalId":153770,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Science & Technoledge","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121843053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
