Industries

The oil and gas sector is adapting to technological advancements, sustainability demands, and evolving market dynamics. This involves a shift from traditional practices to the integration of innovative technologies. The industry is poised to play a crucial role in shaping the current and future states of global energy and economic landscapes, balancing economic growth and sustainability.

The oil and gas sector, contributing about 3.8% to global GDP, remains central to the economy and energy provision, even with the rise of renewables. The International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts fossil fuel demand peaking by 2030, with global oil demand reaching 93 million barrels per day, then declining to 55 million by 2050, assuming all energy and climate commitments are met. In the MENA region, known for vast oil reserves, growth is expected through increased investments in new technologies and sustainability. The Middle East's strategic position and resource richness significantly influence regional and global energy strategies.

Beyond energy production, the industry drives innovation, affects global politics, and is crucial for economic stability. It plays a major role in employment and R&D, impacting global and regional scales. Oil and gas consultants, especially specialising in strategic planning and business advisory are essential in guiding market adaptations, technological integration, and sustainable business development in this evolving landscape.
