Report summary
Capital constraints, changing M&A market dynamics and the energy transition. How will Asia Pacific's upstream sector respond to a new normal in 2021? We foresee further spending cuts, asset optimisation and new decarbonisation targets as some of the key themes that will emerge in the next year. Watch out for more M&A too, as Majors streamline regional portfolios...but who will be the buyers? 2021 will certainly hold its fair share of challenges - albeit hopefully less than in 2020 - but we expect the Asia Pacific's upstream sector to emerge nimbler, leaner and perhaps even greener.
