Downstream

Over the last few years, the global downstream oil sector has experienced a resurgence. New investments, and the resulting new competitors, have increased the sector’s complexity. We support both existing players and new entrants to identify and exploit new refining and marketing opportunities.

Our consultants draw on our extensive commercial analysis, a huge resource of authoritative downstream research at asset, country, regional and global level. We combine this analytical base with extensive knowledge of the sector through the operating experience of our senior consultants. This results in the strategic advice that has helped our downstream clients grow and prosper over the past two decades.
