    Welcome to the Redstone Commodity Update 2020: Q3 Welcome to the Redstone Commodity Moves Update Q3 2020, another quarter in a year that has been strongly defined by the pandemic. Overall recruitment levels across the board are still down, although we have seen some pockets of hiring intent. There appears to be a general acknowledgement across all market segments that growth must still be encouraged and planned for, this has taken the form in some quite senior / structural moves. The types of hires witnessed tend to pre-empt more mid-junior levels hires within the same companies in following quarters, which leaves us predicting a stronger than expected finish to Q4 2020 and start to Q1 2021 than we had previously planned for coming out of Q2. The highest volume of moves tracked fell to the energy markets, notably, within power and gas and not within the traditional oil focused roles, overall, we are starting to see greater progress towards carbon neutrality targets.

  • Slovenia: MOL Group' Retail Acquirement Agreement With
    Slovenia: MOL Group’ retail acquirement agreement with OMV The agreed purchase price is 301 million euros (100 % share of OMV Slovenia); MOL Group reached an agreement with OMV to acquire OMV’s 92.25 % stake in OMV Slovenia, in which Croatian INA already holds a 7.75 % minority stake, from OMV Downstream GmbH as direct shareholder.

  • Oil and Gas News Briefs, July 26, 2021
    Oil and Gas News Briefs Compiled by Larry Persily July 26, 2021 Saudis want to be ‘last man standing’ as oil demand declines (Bloomberg; July 21) – Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman’s decisions after flying home from a tumultuous OPEC meeting in Vienna in March 2020 exposed a new Saudi policy — bolder, defiant of a growing global consensus on climate change, and more controlled by the royal family. They also reflected what Abdulaziz sees as his destiny: To ensure that the last barrel of oil on Earth comes from a Saudi well. As he said at a private event in June, according to a source, “We are still going to be the last man standing, and every molecule of hydrocarbon will come out.” All of this has huge implications for world energy markets. Abdulaziz, the first member of the royal family to be the kingdom’s energy minister, is the most important person in the oil market today. But a rancorous OPEC+ meeting in July showed just how difficult it’s going to be for him to consistently get his way in an era when oil-producing nations — their self-interests often in conflict — are contemplating a future of declining oil demand. Saudi Arabia’s power is under threat as the world seeks to move away from oil and other fossil fuels. Beneath the kingdom’s desert there are about 265 billion barrels of oil, worth almost $20 trillion at current prices. It’s a massive prize, but one that may be worthless someday if the global economy figures out how to keep churning without oil.
