OPEC+ prepares for market uncertainty with continued 2 million b/d production cut

• 06 12月 2022

Speaking after today’s OPEC+ meeting, Ann-Louise Hittle, vice president, Macro Oils, at Wood Mackenzie, said “The decision by OPEP+ to continue with its recently agreed 2 million barrels per day (b/d) production cut through the end of 2023 is not a surprise, given the uncertainty in the market over the impact of the 5 December EU Russia crude oil import ban and the G7 price cap. In addition, the producers group faces downside risk from the potential for weakening global economic growth and China’s zero Covid policy.”

New CEO Looney rings changes at BP with ambitious climate plan

• 12 2月 2020

Speaking after BP’s new chief executive Bernard Looney unveiled the major’s ambitious climate commitments today, Luke Parker, vice president, corporate analysis, said: “BP joins Shell, Total, Equinor and Repsol in making a major commitment to reduce its net carbon footprint. “This marks a major turnaround in BP’s position. Just 12 months ago former CEO Bob Dudley said the company could not be held accountable for how people use its products. Looney is taking the company in a very different direction.” Parker added: “It’s an ambition, rather than a target, but the commitment appears to be unconditional. In terms of scale of commitment, this puts BP towards the top of the pack, along with Repsol and Equinor. “This will see BP’s business completely transformed over the coming decades: renewables and carbon abatement will get very big, legacy oil and gas will eventually get smaller. But the transition to 2050 is a multi-decade transition - not something that will happen in the next year or so.”

Webinar: What oil supply is at risk of shut in?

• 09 4月 2020

During the last downturn in 2015/16 supply was relatively unaffected. Even the highest cost wedges kept producing; the associated shut-in costs were deemed too high. But prices only dipped below US$45/bbl for a year, and below US$35/bbl for one quarter. Storage levels were of less concern. There is no precedent for the scale of potential shut-ins for today’s asset classes, if oil prices remain low for a prolonged period. The industry’s ability to keep higher-cost barrels flowing is being severely tested. This downturn, there could be a significant impact on currently producing fields as well as future supply.

Webinar | Global exploration before and after Covid-19

• 28 5月 2020

Our annual survey of the global exploration industry, conducted largely before coronavirus hit and the oil price crashed, showed signs of cautious optimism. Despite the threat posed by the energy transition, explorers were looking forward to another 30 years of exploration. There was, however, a keen awareness of the challenges ahead – the fight to remain investible, the need to increase capital efficiency and the opportunities and risks presented by deepwater exploration. Join us for a webinar discussing the results on the 2020 survey both in the context of the pre-COVID-19 view and in light of the new world we live in. We’ll cover which exploration companies stood out from the pack in 2019, the changing focus of explorers and the role of exploration in today’s energy companies.
