Report summary
Governments have a lot to think about going into 2022, and they will face competing and at times contradictory pressures. Will fiscal policy makers introduce tougher fiscal terms or establish carbon prices that will put them at the sharp end of the energy transition? Or will the upstream sector remain the priority for now? The answers may lie in bolder, more radical policies. We will also be keeping a keen eye on the fiscal developments in some key producing countries.
