Structured register of government actions in the geoeconomic space — export controls, tariffs, sanctions, FDI screening, subsidies, industrial-policy laws — cross-referenced into the country, minerals, and ETF surface. Charter: docs/IPTM_CHARTER.md.
Severity 1-5 is the qualitative impact rating (1=minor, 5=structural). The bilateral-trade-grounded quant scorer is the next IPTM milestone. RBI (Register Breadth Index) is a complementary structural-breadth indicator from scripts/py/iptm/breadth.py; divergence between RBI and severity is itself informative (high-sev / low-RBI = strategic chokepoint; low-sev / high-RBI = broad but shallow). Every action has at least one primary source URL. Verify-or-don't-file. See also themes, timeline, graph, sankey, map, country exposure, sector exposure, material exposure (+ graph), weekly briefs, portfolio scan, escalation monitor, trans-shipment hubs. Internal triage tools (RSS-poller candidate feed, source-feed health) live under /admin/candidates + /admin/sources. Subscribe via Atom feed (accepts ?country=CN, ?material=lithium, ?issuer=BIS, ?type=export_control, ?etf=SOXX, ?company=NVDA, ?minSeverity=4, ?year=2026, ?q=…) or pull /api/iptm/actions.
The National Upstream Petroleum Local Content Policy (NUPLCP), approved by Namibia's Cabinet in December 2024 and finalised by the Ministry of Mines and Energy in March 2025, requires all upstream petroleum operators to submit Local Content Plans detailing Namibian workforce hiring, skills transfer, and local supplier engagement commitments as a condition of exploration and production licences. The policy is the primary industrial-policy instrument governing Namibia's nascent offshore oil sector, targeting the Orange Basin deepwater blocks (PEL 39, PEL 56, PEL 83, PEL 85, PEL 90, PEL 91) where Shell, TotalEnergies, Galp, Chevron, ExxonMobil, and QatarEnergy have confirmed ~11+ billion barrels of recoverable resource with a 2027–2029 FID horizon and projected peak output of ~700 kbpd by 2030+. Enforcement is initially guidance-based with a dedicated monitoring framework under development; critics note weak enforcement infrastructure as the principal implementation risk.
Qatar's Cabinet approved and publicly launched the Third National Development Strategy (NDS3) 2024-2030 on 10 January 2024, the final-stage framework on the path to Qatar National Vision 2030. NDS3 targets average annual GDP growth of 4%, a 25% GHG-emissions reduction, and a skilled-workforce share rising to 46% of the labour force, anchored by LNG capacity expansion from ~77 mtpa to ~142 mtpa and diversification into manufacturing, logistics, financial services, and tourism clusters. It is the parent umbrella under which all sectoral implementing strategies — including the Qatar National Manufacturing Strategy 2024-2030 — and all QIA sovereign-wealth deployment criteria operate through 2030.
