The Largest Shale Event of the Year!
The oil and gas (O&G) industry earned record profits in 2024, providing needed cash flow to fund their strategies in 2024. And while upstream O&G companies recognize geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty in the year ahead, they’ve also been given a clear mandate to secure supply in the short term while transitioning to cleaner energy.
