Abstract

The oil and gas industry has faced investment challenges since 2014. Oil and gas suppliers are still searching for a solution to attract investments from financial institutions and other cautious investors who are hesitant to inject more capital. Factors such as price volatility, uncertainty surrounding the outlook for oil demand, and growing environmental concerns deter potential investors from taking action.
