OW Insights North American oil producers are experiencing widespread pain as a result of rock‑bottom oil prices.The New Balance Of Power In Oil
-
OW Insights The days of the traditional electrical power utility are numbered. Disruptive forces – a combination of supportive government subsidies and advances in technologies such as micro combined heat and power boilers, solar photovoltaics and battery storage – are making it relatively easy and cost-effective for people in developed countries to unplug from the grid. Yes, fossil fuel prices have fallen, but photovoltaic and battery storage prices are also dropping quickly.The New Make Vs. Buy Calculus

OW Insights Energiewende (or “energy transition”) is one of Germany’s largest ongoing projects: a paradigm for the rapid and disruptive changes that many electricity markets are now facing or soon will face, as regulatory and consumer pressures to reduce fossil fuel usage grow and the costs of renewables-based generation continue to fall.Power generation disruption

OW Insights As Mexico deregulates its oil and gas industry, the country represents an enormous opportunity for retail fuels marketers and service stations. Mexican fuel consumption is forecast to grow by roughly 3 percent annually, twice as fast as global demand growth and at a higher rate than the top five fuel-consuming countries.The mexican retail fuels revolution

OW Insights In the first phase of the shale revolution, North American shale drillers catapulted the UnitedStates to one of the top oil producing positions in the world, upsetting a global balance of power in oil that had prevailed for decades.Shale 2.0
-
OW Insights Shale drillers are forging new operating models that will continue to challenge the conventional practices of the oil and gas business in a number of key areas. At first glance, these operating tactics may appear more relevant for managing a Silicon Valley startup than for running an oil and gas company. Like many high-tech startups, shale drillers manage a rapidly changing set of daily activities and must continuously improve technologies across widely dispersed assets and supply chains to remain competitive.What oil and gas companies can learn from the shale revolution

OW Insights Energy companies are suffering from an increasing and unprecedented number of cyberattacks.Cyber-Risk Management
-
OW Insights Oil and gas companies have installed thousands of structures offshore in the earth’s oceans, and the time is quickly approaching for those wells, pipelines and other pieces of equipment to begin coming out.Defusing the Decommissioning Time Bomb
-
OW Insights Although solar power has been ballyhooed as the reigning threat to the traditional utility revenue model, there is a stealth disruptor lurking in the wings: electricity storage. New and more economically priced technology can store enough electricity to power a home or business for a few hours. That’s long enough to disrupt the peak demand charges business model many utilities rely on for their cash flows.Electricity Storage Technology
-
OW Insights International conflicts, an uncertain global economy, and volatile stock prices are prompting management teams to examine whether they would fare better in a liquidity crunch today than they did when the financial crisis struck seven years ago.Liquidity Risk
-
OW Insights Since the collapse of global oil prices, oil field activity (both ongoing and planned) has decreased dramatically: Global exploration spending has contracted by almost 25 percent, the equivalent of $120 billion, due to delayed or cancelled projects. Additionally, global rig count – the key indicator of level of future exploration activity – has shrunk by 43 percent over the past 12 months.The Big Squeeze in Oil Field Services
