Changing operator requirements, tighter deadlines, high overheads and operator scrutiny, increased market competition, and fewer capital raising opportunities are daily challenges facing O&G executives.
Yet with conventional, known oil and gas reserves diminishing, energy companies are increasingly looking for new and innovative ways of maximising production rates and extracting frontier resources, making operator-contractor partnerships more crucial than ever before.
Although under pressure the oilfield services and engineering sectors have never had so much potential for growth and success and investors are now quickly realigning their portfolios to include significant allocations into high-potential service companies? But what does the future hold for O&G engineering and the services sectors that empower O&G companies across the globe? And to what extend will the financial services sector enhance these synergies?
“It’s time to rewrite the rulebook on the importance and power of these sectors in realising global growth and success of the global energy indsustry” says Ross Campbell, CEO, The Oil Council – a global committee steered, member based business development organisation for O&G executives, financiers and investors
