Potential low-carbon (green or blue) hydrogen demand from the global refining sector could reach 50 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) by 2050, says Wood Mackenzie.
We may only be halfway through 2021, but it is already shaping up to be a breakthrough year for carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) to emerge as a viable tool for upstream companies to decarbonise operations. Although the concept has been around for decades, CCS is moving into the mainstream. All the industry’s largest companies now plan to use sequestration to help them reach their decarbonisation targets.
The liquefied natural gas (LNG) long term contract market and LNG spot market are travelling in opposite directions. The long-term buyers’ market is only likely to end when it becomes clear that demand will outstrip new supply available from Qatar and Russia, global energy consultancy Wood Mackenzie said.
For the second consecutive year, French major TotalEnergies has been named the upstream industry’s most-admired explorer, an accolade awarded as part of with Wood Mackenzie’s industry-leading annual Exploration Survey.
The energy transition represents US$14 trillion worth of uncertainty for upstream oil and gas, according to a new report by Wood Mackenzie.
Consolidation among the Independents will accelerate in the face of energy transition, says Wood Mackenzie.
National oil companies (NOCs) globally are estimated to cut exploration budgets by over a quarter on average in 2020, says Wood Mackenzie.
The OPEC oil producers' group and its non-OPEC allies are poised to deepen its production cuts by 1.5 million barrels per day as the coronavirus (Covid-19) outbreak eats into global oil demand.
Is the Global Energy Transition on track? A new report by Wood Mackenzie, Thinking global energy transitions: the what, if, how and when, explores the forces shaping the energy transition, and pinpoints the sustainability tipping point – when the world shifts from the age of oil and gas to the age of power and renewables – will arrive by 2035.
Wood Mackenzie's short-term global gas and LNG outlook (Q2 2018) sees the market rebalancing as it moves from oversupply, although the global natural resources consultancy believes prices will remain relatively sustained into 2019.
2018 looks set to be a brighter year for upstream oil and gas companies
Italian major Eni has, for the fourth time in seven years, been named the upstream industry’s most-admired explorer, an accolade awarded as part of Wood Mackenzie’s industry-leading annual Exploration Survey.
Veritas Capital (“Veritas”), a leading investor at the intersection of technology and government, today announced that an affiliate of Veritas has completed the purchase of Wood Mackenzie from Verisk (Nasdaq: VRSK).
Five key lessons from today's energy crisis on how to manage the shift to lower-carbon sources while strengthening energy security
The world has the means, motive and opportunity to cap global warming to the 1.5°C limit agreed in the Paris Climate Accord, new research released today by Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk company (Nasdaq: VRSK) shows. But there will be tangible economic implications of an accelerated energy transition. While global economic output is likely to take a hit until 2050, it could be recoverable by the end of the century, according to Wood Mackenzie.
Wood Mackenzie releases its Oil markets: 5 things to look for in 2022 report which discusses the uncertainties and issues impacting global demand, oil supply and refining markets this year.
Sales of China’s new energy vehicles (NEV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) combined are expected to rise 15-fold or more by 2035 with their share in total new car sales exceeding 80%, says Wood Mackenzie.
Wood Mackenzie’s latest outlook report shows that the art of balancing oil markets and the refining sector in 2021 hinges upon three key themes – OPEC+ production, Covid-19 developments, and the energy transition.
Wood Mackenzie’s latest analysis shows 2020 is on track to be the quietest year for upstream transactions in the Asia Pacific region since the beginning of the 21st century.
Wood Mackenzie today delivered a comprehensive roadmap for the North Sea’s future to the OGTC, setting out the critical technologies needed to deliver an integrated net zero energy system on the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS), positioning the UK as a world-leader in the move to a low carbon world.
The global liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry is about to face its first seasonal demand contraction since 2012, with demand in summer 2020 expected to fall 2.7% or 3 million tonnes (Mt) year-on-year, says Wood Mackenzie.
This year may prove to be a strong one for the refining sector, but 2020 has had a difficult start. Wood Mackenzie expects some turbulence this year as a number of factors come together – geopolitical risk, the impact of IMO 2020 regulations, and US tight oil production slowing, among them.
OPEC+ gathers today and tomorrow to decide if the group should roll over its production restraint agreement or consider deeper cuts. The current agreement to reduce output by 1.2 million b/d runs to end March 2020. Ann-Louise Hittle, vice president, Macro Oils, said: “The idea of deeper cuts has been broached, but we consider that less likely to reach full agreement than a rollover of the standing agreement. The need for production restraint is clear. Slower US production growth is not enough to offset the ongoing imbalance between global supply and demand.”
Natural resources research and consultancy Wood Mackenzie launches the world’s first Global Upstream Valuation solution, enabling organisations from the largest oil and gas companies to global banks to value assets around the globe in seconds.
According to a new report by Wood Mackenzie, Southeast Asia could take centre stage in the region's upstream M&A activity in 2019, with up to US$14 billion worth of assets potentially switching hands.
The Major oil and gas companies have made big strategic bets on the US Lower 48's unconventional plays. The scale, returns and investment flexibility offered by tight oil and gas has made it an essential part of most major players’ portfolios. But how do the players compare to each other?
Has the oil and gas industry finally turned around its reputation for always delivering upstream projects behind schedule and overbudget? Emerging signs of improved execution suggest companies are getting it right after a period of dismal performance on project returns, according to a new Wood Mackenzie report.
Analysis of global oil cost curves indicates that many conventional pre-FID projects – even deepwater developments - are now competitive on a breakeven basis with US Lower 48 tight oil. However, this competitiveness has come at the expense of volumes. The trade-off of cost efficiency versus volumes means that in the medium- to long-term, the cost of supply is set to increase, highlighting the US Lower 48’s role as an important marginal barrel producer.
Confidence will return to the sector in 2017, with exploration and production spend to rise by 3% to US$450 billion.
Scope 3 emissions account for 80-to-95% of total carbon emissions from oil and gas companies. But only a small number of these firms have set Scope 3 net zero ambitions, according to a recent report from Wood Mackenzie.
