  - 30 January 2025
  In the January 2025 China economic focus, we discuss the challenges facing the Chinese economy in 2025.

The domestic market will lead the growth, in particular, household consumption and the new energy sector. Government…

How the oil market would deal with the return of Iranian exports
- 16 April 2021
The return of Iranian exports to the oil market in 2021 was a clear risk. If sanctions are lifted, how much oil could Iran produce and how quickly? What wiggle room would OPEC+ have to accommodate Iran's exports? What would be the effect on the oil price?

Who will fund the energy transition?
- 27 November 2020
If ambitions on climate change are high, so, too, will be the cost. We reckon a bare minimum of US$30 trillion to US$40 trillion of investment is needed to put the world on a 2 °C or lower pathway. Where’s the money going to come from? I chatted to Prakash Sharma and Jonny Sultoon of our Energy Transition team and Peter Martin, Head of Economics.

How will Covid-19 change corporate strategy?
- 01 June 2020
Future energy demand patterns could look very different depending on policy choices and the societal response to the pandemic. Our three scenarios suggest oil demand in particular is at risk.

We answer some of the big questions on OPEC’s agenda ahead of its December meeting in Vienna.

Brazil, giant oil projects and the Majors
- 26 November 2019
Big Oil’s risk appetite has changed. It needs to continue to replace reserves for the foreseeable future but is looking for lower risk options than exploration. Discovered resources can be part of the solution, though opportunities to develop a giant oil field such as Buzios in Brazil, in the heart of an industry hot spot, only come around once in a blue moon. So why the lack of bids from the Majors?
