Report summary

2017 was the year the upstream industry began to feel a bit better about itself again. So as we head towards 2018 with prices bouncing above US$60/bbl, is there grounds for renewed optimism? We think so. Investment is stabilising and new project sanctions are on the up, a key barometer for confidence in the sector. Tight oil will also enter its second great phase of growth – with implications for global oil markets. And 2018 is shaping up to be a massive year for portfolio renewal, with over 15 billion boe of discovered resource opportunities (DROs) up for grabs in Brazil and the Middle East. But rapid growth does not come without its challenges. We assess the five key things to look for in 2018.

Global investment stabilising: unconventionals and deepwater edge ahead
Tight oil: growing pains
Service sector: opportunity knocks as costs hit rock-bottom
DROs: a massive year for resource capture
Fiscal: the search for 'fair share'
