Gas capital expenditure boost to fuel the energy transition: DNV GL

摘要

NATURAL GAS PROJECTS are expected to receive a significant investment boost over the coming years, which will enable gas to overtake oil as the world's primary energy source in 2026, according to DNV GL's 2018 Energy Transition Outlook. The outlook predicts global upstream gas capital expenditure to grow from US$960bn in 2015 to a peak of US$1.13 trillion in 2025. Upstream gas operating expenditure is set to rise from US$448bn in 2015 to US$582bn in 2035 when operational spending will be at its highest.
