This allows companies to measure their progress in this area through several indicators.

Rich Oils Group obtains a score of 75/100 on the gender equality index for the year 2020.

This overall score is obtained from 4 indicators (pay gap, individual increases, individual increases upon return from maternity leave and number of women among the ten highest paid people within the company) and rated out of 100 points.

The future of global oil production depends on the exploration of new territories. Exploration consists of looking for deposits, and after the detailed study of geological structures, only drilling allows to know the veracity of the facts.

Let’s look at these key points:
With 2019 global GDP estimation, the oil and gas drilling sector constitute around 3.8% of the global economy.
The E&P sector employs approximately 4 million people.
There are around 350,000 specialized businesses across the world.

Making safer offshore platforms with more efficiency and less emission?

In BP’s 2019 Energy Outlook released in February, the company projected 85% of the growth in future energy supply will be generated through renewable energy and natural gas. In particular, BP claims renewables will become the largest source of global power generation by 2040.

However, despite renewables being on track to becoming the fastest-growing energy source, Birrell said that oil and gas also will continue to play a role in the energy transition.

“The dual challenge can’t be about a race to renewable … It’s got to be a race to lower carbon emissions,”.
