At the 2024 ADI Forum, Uday Turaga, CEO, ADI Analytics, provided an analysis of anticipated trends, challenges, and opportunities within the oil and gas industry for 2024. The U.S. energy outlook showed stable oil prices and a current natural gas oversupply, creating challenges for producers, though the U.S. remained a net energy exporter. Oil demand growth was moderating, with U.S. supply growth predominantly from Permian shale and deepwater plays. The refining sector faced moderating crack spreads and competitive shifts in crude sourcing.
The Biden administration’s pause on LNG export permits was a major concern, potentially impacting global LNG supply and benefiting non-U.S. projects. Midstream opportunities were in new pipelines and NGL infrastructure. The industry was seeing increased efficiency and consolidation upstream, but stagnation in well productivity in some shale areas highlighted a need for broader innovation.
