The oil industry is a really important industry for Middle East countries. However, now they are facing very critical situation because of the recent low oil prices. Few years ago, the oil price was over $100 per barrels, but the recent price is around $45 per barrels. Once oil price became $30 per barrels. Price became half in few years. This has a huge impact on the oil industry. This impact is not only for oil producing country but also for companies that are related to the oil industry. So they have to change their business plan and government policy. During this fieldwork, I learned a lot about each company's business activities, situations that they have to face with and their future plan by visiting companies. Each company struggled

The one reason is impact on society. The size of one project is really big. To start one project, infrastructure is necessary.

So, I think, finding a new oil field and develop this is our obligation. Especially for Japan, we don't have any resources. We have to do resource development in another country. When we do development as an operator, we can deliver resources for Japan with stability. Stable energy supply for Japan is a crucial thing for the Japanese government and to doing business for a Japanese company. I think working for the oil industry is we support people's live. It is very important thing for
