Coronavirus' impact on oil & gas industry
The oil and gas industry has seen various challenges as the world moves towards clean energy and many governments implement tougher climate policies. The 2020 coronavirus pandemic presents yet another challenge, as oil demand declines and many oil supermajors are left scrambling to revise capital expenditures for the year.
