Oil and Gas News!
COVID-19 stabilization could push Brent oil prices to $50/b: Abu Dhabi bank
Dubai — Brent crude prices could rise towards $50/b by the start of 2021, if the COVID-19 pandemic is contained, though the path may be choppy, said Monica Malik, chief economist at Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank.

"At the moment it is trading in a relatively tight band of between $40 and $45/b, and in the near-term, that's the range we expect it to see it remaining in," said Malik, on a July 16 webcast for the International Monetary Fund's MENA Economic Outlook. "In a case of global environment where you see COVID-19 controlled and global demand continuing to pick up, we expect oil by the end of this year and into next year moving towards the $50/b range."
Covid-19: The new normal in Oil & Gas raises the need for AI
New Delhi: With a global health crisis, geopolitical issues leading to surplus production, and some key industry developments, the oil and gas industry is staring at a  new normal  of lower demand and subsequently lower crude prices.

While the demand is expected to increase as the world shakes out of the pandemic and OPEC+ normalizes its relation and production quotas, industry players have to be agile and nimble to survive in the new reality. They must focus on transforming their value chain and operations, reducing their cost of production, processing, and transportation. AI technologies can play a key part in the transformation of the value chain of the oil and gas industry.
Why COVID-19 Won’t Completely Crush Brazil’s Oil Boom
Before the outbreak of COVID-19 and the oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia, an  oil boom  of monumental proportions was underway in Brazil, Latin America’s largest economy. Economists and industry analysts as far back as 2018 were speculating that it would be the largest in Latin America’s history. There were even signs that Brazil’s burgeoning oil production could challenge OPEC’s  waning supremacy .

 A unique combination of Brazil’s vast petroleum reserves totaling almost 13 billion barrels, comprised of sought-after light sweet crude, and impressively low breakeven costs made it inevitable. In 2019, for the first time ever, Latin America’s largest oil producer pumped just over one billion  barrels of oil . That, coupled with the latest oil discoveries in Brazil’s vast pre-salt offshore fields, spurred hopes of a renewed oil led economic boom.
Who will lead the process
of digital transformation in today's companies?
The world has changed a lot in the past three months. It's pointless to deny. Alternatively, it is not pointless to embrace these changes and adapt your business.

Recently, I noted that many business owners who are not connected with IT infrasturcutre have questions and frustrations regarding the mission of digital transformation. They wonder why it's so necessary for every company, who should be responsible for it and how they can change their business processes to meet the needs of today's customers.
We want to hear from you!
What about you? How are you dealing with all the uncertain in the industry? Feel free to share your strategical vision with us!
