Frost & Sullivan's two top Oil & Gas experts – Principal Jonathan Robinson and Oil & Gas Director Carl Larry – will lead a panel discussion on the 2016 Global Oil & Gas Outlook, followed by a live question-and-answer session. The conference will take place online on Thursday 3rd March, at 3 pm GMT.

To register, please contact Chiara Carella, Corporate Communications, at [email protected].

"Global oil prices are down 70 percent on the start of 2015 and there are few signs of a short-term recovery. This is putting major pressure on industry players, as they adapt to the new conditions," says Mr Robinson.

"Declines in investment are uneven – some areas are seeing massive pullbacks, but there are areas and players that are continuing to invest for the longer-term," adds Mr Larry.

The presentation will include:

Slowdown in upstream investment – What will it mean for exploration, production and oilfield service companies?
M&A Activity – Will lower prices drive deal making?
Downstream surges to the fore – Can players take advantage to drive longer-term gains?

The oil & gas sector impacts the entire economy, so this briefing is relevant for a wide audience across most major industries. Join Frost & Sullivan to understand the impact of these changes so far and the potential developments in 2016. Specifically within oil & gas, it will be relevant for explorers, producers, refiners, service companies, and equipment providers.
