Petroleum Review February 2016

This month’s issue takes a closer look at the investment opportunities that financiers are targeting in the oil and gas sector despite the current low oil price and future market uncertainties. It analyses recent oil company cuts, asset sales and dividends; mergers and acquisitions; how to build ‘bankability’ for major projects; and the developing green bond sector.

We also outline some of the details of the Paris Agreement on climate change, the outcome of December’s COP21 meeting, and what the deal may mean for the global oil and gas market going forward.

The magazine also highlights how developing a cost-effective supply chain is vital in a tight margin world and the role that a new generation of supply chain management solutions will play.

Subsea pipeline integrity management issues are also reviewed this month, as well as recent pipeline project developments. The role of data warehousing is also addressed.

We also look at the key role that you, as members of the Energy Institute, play in helping us develop and disseminate knowledge, skills and good practice across the energy industry.
