  5. Industry Overview The oil and gas drilling and extraction industry features regional dispersion and high revenue volatility Competitive Landscape Dominant Players in Oil & Gas Drilling and Extraction • Low concentration due to high geographic dispersion • Top four competitors account for 28% of industry revenue • Economies of scale resulting from large oil and gas deposits help competitors spread high capital costs • Largest players practice downstream vertical integration to guarantee buyers • Stringent regulations threaten large and small competitors and increase capital requirements U.S. Production of Crude Oil Price Determinants • Prices remain volatile due to changes in supply and demand • Global economic recovery increases transportation and industrial energy demands • Different grades of oil (heavy, light) typically attract different prices with lighter oils earning a premium since they are easier to refine • Impurities also affect the price of oil with sweet oils, or those with a low sulfur content, commanding a premium • High barriers to entry result from security and regulation, capital investments, and the high risks associated with exploration Sources: 1.
