Developing a framework for stakeholders collaboration in the management and mitigation of oil pipeline disasters in Nigeria. (2022)
Journal Article
JOHNSON, F.I., LAING, R., BJEIRMI, B. and LEON, M. 2022. Developing a framework for stakeholders collaboration in the management and mitigation of oil pipeline disasters in Nigeria. AIMS energy [online], 10(6), pages 1230-1260. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3934/energy.2022058

Multi-stakeholder collaboration becomes imperative when a single agency - such as the NNPC or the oil companies - cannot by themselves adequately address a recurring menace, such as oil pipeline disasters. Thus, agencies - such as the National Emerge... Read More about Developing a framework for stakeholders collaboration in the management and mitigation of oil pipeline disasters in Nigeria..

Examining the causes and impacts of pipeline disasters in Nigeria. (2022)
Journal Article

Long-term dynamic behaviour of human resource needs in Ghana’s oil sector: system dynamics approach. (2021)
Journal Article
OBIRI, K.A., OMOTAYO, T.S., BJEIRMI, B. and BOATENG, P. 2021. Long-term dynamic behaviour of human resource needs in Ghana’s oil sector: system dynamics approach. Sustainability [online], 13(6), article 3546. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/su13063546

This study espouses a multi-strategy method comprising of a qualitative study and system dynamics (SD) to deliver the long-term dynamic behaviour of human resource development (HRD) in Ghana’s oil and gas sector. The adoption of the SD differed from... Read More about Long-term dynamic behaviour of human resource needs in Ghana’s oil sector: system dynamics approach..

Aligning tacit knowledge and competitive advantage: a resource-based view. (2020)
Journal Article

A system thinking approach to human resource development in the oil industry. (2020)
Journal Article
OBIRI, K.A., BJEIRMI, B. and BOATENG, P. 2020. A system thinking approach to human resource development in the oil industry. Journal of energy research and reviews [online], 4(1), pages 39-49. Available from: https://doi.org/10.9734/JENRR/2020/v4i130118

Prerequisite for the development of production linkages in the oil and gas (O&G) industry is the existence of a skilled and experienced workforce. Resource-rich countries, however, are either in short supply or lack of the requisite local capacity. T...
