The Investment Case for Oil & Gas

Considerable underinvestment in oil and gas.

At the 2021, +1400 institutions with ~$32 trillion under management committed to divesting of some or all their fossil fuel investments.

More investment is needed in the upstream oil and gas sector not only to sustain production as global demand grows, but to drive the transition to cleaner energies.

Countries need to be energy independent and secure in light of geopolitical events.

Shift towards profits rather than production growth where profits are defined as dividends and share buy backs.

"Capex cuts by international oil companies and national oil companies in 2020 was about 35%. We're now showing another 23% reduction in capex levels" from pre-pandemic levels this year.

In 2019, E&P companies spent $525 billion, an amount which plummeted to $341 billion in 2021.

"We have to get back to $525 billion over several years until 2030 to restore market balance," McMonigle said. "I'm afraid what we're seeing with the energy crisis is on our doorstep.”

Investment in energy supply represents the "greatest challenge the oil and gas industry faces today. We're way short of where we need to be."

Commodities are considered a hedge against inflation due to their intrinsic value and tend to perform well when prices for consumer goods are on the rise.

Commodities consistently outperform other asset classes for an extended period of time after U.S. rate hike cycles.

Rhinoenergy has a strong pipeline of oil and gas investment opportunities to deliver sustainable long term performance through economic cycles.
