Designing an Integrated Model of Oil and Gas Management with a SWOT Approach

In the recent years, the growing demand for energy on the one hand and the reduction of conventional hydrocarbon reserves on the other hand have made the proper extraction of oil and gas reserves, i.e. reservoir management issues, more important and hence proper management of these reserves is inevitable. Although renewable energies currently provide the bulk of the world’s energy needs, hydrocarbon fuels remain the main source of energy until 2035.Despite the growing importance of the Integrated Reservoir Management Model (IRMI), as a rational solution to maximize economic production from oil and gas reservoirs, a comprehensive model that can cover all reservoir management modules has not yet been proposed. In this paper, by examining the current condition of reservoir management in one of the subsidiaries of the National Iranian Oil company and analyzing the obtained results, we offer some solutions to improve the condition and finally, we present a comprehensive model for reservoir management in this company.

Study of Vulnerabilities in Designing and Using Automated Vehicles based on SWOT method for Chevrolet Camaro

Travel sickness of the passenger, lack of human control over driving, high level of complexity in construction and programming, possibility of technical failure, limited or no driving engagement are just some of the possible vulnerabilities when using an automated or an autonomous vehicle. There are also important benefits and clear advantages such as more time for relaxing, resting, sleeping, reading, or working during the travel. Therefore is a “must”, to study the process of designing and using automated vehicles in order to outline vulnerabilities which may provide the mitigating solutions. As majority of the studies regarding vulnerabilities of the automated vehicles consist in fundamental research investigations a SWOT analyse of vulnerabilities in designing and using autonomous cars is thus necessary. The present work investigates methodological and designing aspects for researching the vulnerabilities in the process of developing and implementing automated driving, based on SWOT approach, simulation tools, practical measurement, experimental testing, sampling, graphical modelling, programming, and ethical considerations. Moreover, some aspects of the SWOT method led by multiple engineering and ethical problems are brought up and highlighted. Part of the data from conducted research concerning the designing and using autonomous vehicles made in a dynamic-based driving environment and with a real car are also applicable in sustaining the arguments.

Quantifying SWOT analysis for cloud adoption using FAHP-DEMATEL approach: evidence from the manufacturing sector

PurposeThis study aims to identify the critical factors (barriers and drivers) influencing the adoption of cloud computing (ACC) in the manufacturing sector in India.Design/methodology/approachIn this study, a mixed methodology approach is used. Interviews are conducted to investigate factors (drivers and barriers) influencing the ACC, which are further categorized as controllable determinants (weaknesses and strengths) and uncontrollable determinants (threats and opportunities) using a SWOT analysis. Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) has been utilized to highlight the most critical drivers as well as barriers. Finally, decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) has been used to find the cause-effect relationships among factors and their influence on the decision of adoption.FindingsThe manufacturing sector is in the digital and value change transformation phase with Industry 4.0, that is, the next industrial revolution. The 24 critical factors influencing ACC are subdivided into strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. The FAHP analysis ranked time to market, competitive advantage, business agility, data confidentiality and lack of government policy standards as the most critical factors. The cause-effect relationships highlight that time to market is the most significant causal factor, and resistance to technology is the least significant effect factor. The results of the study elucidate that the strengths of ACC are appreciably more than its weaknesses.Research limitations/implicationsThis study couples the technology acceptance model (TAM) with technology-organization-environment (TOE) framework and adds an economic perspective to examine the significant influences of ACC in the Indian manufacturing sector. Further, it contributes to the knowledge of ACC in general and provides valuable insights into interrelationships among factors influencing the decision and strategies of adoption in particular.Originality/valueThis is the first scholarly work in the Indian manufacturing sector that uses the analysis from SWOT and FAHP approach as a base for identifying cause-effect relationships between the critical factors influencing ACC. Further, based on the extant literature and analysis of this work, an adoption framework has been proposed that justifies that ACC is not just a technological challenge but is also an environmental, economic and organizational challenge that includes organizational issues, costs and need for adequate government policies.

Maximizing opportunities towards brown rice farming production

One of the efforts made by the government in meeting the community’s food needs is through the use of dry land as an agricultural area.
