Q2 2020 pre-FID upstream project tracker: price crash drives mass deferrals
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
FIDs are the lifeblood of the upstream industry. But with just a single project sanctioned in Q1 2020, the year got off to a slow start. This has been further hampered by strong market headwinds, and our latest Q2 view sees many project sanctions pushed out from 2020/21 to 2022 and beyond. In the current environment, only the most financially strong companies are likely to contemplate significant new investment and only the most advanced strategic projects will go ahead.
