Global Oil and Gas - Risks and Rewards

Upstream Research: Fiscal Benchmarking Study

Global Oil and Gas Risks and Rewards compares the economics of exploration for oil and gas in more than 60 countries.

This study was first published in 2002 and has been used by senior executives in oil companies, governments and other organisations as the best source for assessing the investment and exploration attractiveness of any country. It has been used for developing international expansion strategies and encouraging inward investment, in negotiations between governments and oil companies over taxation and in shareholder presentations.

The 2004 study focuses on the period from 1994 to 2003, adding more depth to some of the key areas. The study is split into two sections:

  • The first section is a summary analysis, including ranking tables and graphics showing each of the main parameters included in the study, and includes the economics of both new entrants and existing participants.

  •  
  • The second section, is an Interactive Analytical Tool and contains detailed analysis of each country, including full-cycle economics (licensing, exploration drilling and reserves & production) and field economics and provides the user with flexibility to take the output and use it in their own bespoke ways.

    "Wood Mackenzie has created the "Gold Standard" for objective and transparent comparisons of the global competitiveness of oil and gas basins. Essential reference material for both host Governments wishing to attract investment and for companies considering where to invest."
    Raymond Hall, Tax Operations, BP

    "I find the Wood Mackenzie study an immensely valuable source of comparable economic data and often refer to the country summaries which give a very useful overview of published fiscal and economic terms."
