MENA upstream: 5 things to look for in 2018
Report summary
After an action-packed 2017, what can we expect in 2018? We predict the five key themes we expect to see in MENA in 2018. Investment stable. Where is spending focussed over the coming year? Gas growth. The start-up of Zohr along with other major gas developments will help meet rapidly growing domestic demand. A big year for discovered resource opportunities. We look at where operators are hoping to lock-in low-cost, dependable returns. Exploration activity remains dampened. But there are a few wells which could have a high impact.
