#7 In EuropeEurope’s petroleum and natural gas extraction support services’ revenue is forecast to contract at a compound annual rate of 3.8% over the five years through 2024 to €62.1 billion. Widespread disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic weighed heavily on extraction and exploration activity in downstream oil and gas markets as poor demand conditions caused prices to plummet, disincentivising new investment and causing support service contractors to offer price concessions to customers, compounding the industry’s weak revenue performance and weighing on profitability. Demand has increased since lockdown restrictions eased, supporting revenue over 2021 and 2022.
