Estimating fluctuations in oil and gas investment

Roy Dahl () and Petter Osmundsen

No 2014/19, UiS Working Papers in Economics and Finance from University of Stavanger

Abstract: Governments in extraction countries are anxious to estimate expected investment in development projects, since they represent an essential element of the macro economy. The overall level of activity is also crucial to oil companies, since the macro picture affects cost levels, the supplies market and recruitment opportunities. The paper outlines factors that explain fluctuations in investment in petroleum projects on the Norwegian continental shelf.
