“Oil and Gas Markets in 2019 and Beyond  

Oil and gas markets seemed headed for uneasy balance at the start of 2019 but faced troubling questions related to global economic growth and geopolitical pressures. Bob Tippee, Editor of Oil & Gas Journal, will discuss the near-term forecast—and its uncertainties—and examine the longer term future of oil and natural gas.
