Abstract

Oil and gas companies have learnt to respond faster to slumps in oil prices. Waleska Rodrigues1,2 and Ruud Weijermars1* show that shareholders in the 2014/2015 oil price decline, by holding on to their stocks, have avoided the steep slump in share prices of 2008/2009. However, profitability of the industry continues to decline after peaking a decade ago and further consolidation of the petroleum business seems inevitable.
