The Oil Sector Sample Clauses

The Oil Sector. Oil itself is by far the largest of Azerbaijan's exports, and in time, oil and petroleum products have the potential to enrich the nation. Oil itself is not a focus of this study. Clearly, to the degree that exploration and production of oil are viable, major international oil companies work to finance and exploit this resource. The equipment industry is more relevant to the present study. This once-huge industry used to supply the majority of the equipment used in the Soviet bloc. There are at least manufacturing operations within the industry, most of them under the umbrella of a very large SOE, With the collapse of the Soviet system and the entry of Western oil companies, substandard equipment quality became a major issue and the local industry greatly declined. This industry should be a priority for revitalization, because it has a very large local market in the Azeri offshore fields, and a large regional onshore market in Presently, serious American-led efforts are underway to bring equipment quality up to API standards and to secure foreign investment. Delay in the privatization process is a constraint. No foreign investor would consider acquiring the entire SOE. It must be broken up and sold off.

  • Electric Storage Resources Developer interconnecting an electric storage resource shall establish an operating range in Appendix C of its LGIA that specifies a minimum state of charge and a maximum state of charge between which the electric storage resource will be required to provide primary frequency response consistent with the conditions set forth in Articles 9.5.5, 9.5.5.1, 9.5.5.2, and 9.5.5.3 of this Agreement. Appendix C shall specify whether the operating range is static or dynamic, and shall consider (1) the expected magnitude of frequency deviations in the interconnection; (2) the expected duration that system frequency will remain outside of the deadband parameter in the interconnection; (3) the expected incidence of frequency deviations outside of the deadband parameter in the interconnection; (4) the physical capabilities of the electric storage resource; (5) operational limitations of the electric storage resources due to manufacturer specification; and (6) any other relevant factors agreed to by the NYISO, Connecting Transmission Owner, and Developer. If the operating range is dynamic, then Appendix C must establish how frequently the operating range will be reevaluated and the factors that may be considered during its reevaluation. Developer’s electric storage resource is required to provide timely and sustained primary frequency response consistent with Article 9.5.5.2 of this Agreement when it is online and dispatched to inject electricity to the New York State Transmission System and/or receive electricity from the New York State Transmission System. This excludes circumstances when the electric storage resource is not dispatched to inject electricity to the New York State Transmission System and/or dispatched to receive electricity from the New York State Transmission System. If Developer’s electric storage resource is charging at the time of a frequency deviation outside of its deadband parameter, it is to increase (for over-frequency deviations) or decrease (for under-frequency deviations) the rate at which it is charging in accordance with its droop parameter. Developer’s electric storage resource is not required to change from charging to discharging, or vice versa, unless the response necessitated by the droop and deadband settings requires it to do so and it is technically capable of making such a transition.
