Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

National governments that control access to and ownership of crude oil reserves may not have the technical expertise to drill for and extract the crude oil. International oil firms have the knowledge and expertise, but lack the necessary drilling rights. By working together with the government providing the drilling rights and the firm providing the drilling knowledge and technical expertise, the oil field can be developed.
