Oil & gas

For more than half a century Deloitte in the Middle East has played a vital role serving all segments of the oil and gas industry, from “supermajors” and national oil companies through to independents and oil field services, and energy trading businesses.

Deloitte’s unique offering provides unrivaled depth, breadth and quality of professional expertise to serve the needs of clients across the oil and gas sector. The value we offer our clients comes through a combination of our strong technical skills across many disciplines, our thorough knowledge of the industry, and our global network.

The oil and gas industry in the Middle East is undergoing tremendous change, ranging from operating models to the nature of the roles played by its participants. 
National oil companies (NOC), which rank among the world's largest companies, are the largest resource holders and increasingly controlling oil and gas investments both domestically and internationally.  Growing markets, new technologies, supply side constraints, shifting demand patterns, and geopolitical events are transforming the oil and gas industry and reshaping the energy landscape dramatically.

Through our member firms in the Middle East and globally, Deloitte works with clients to address many of these challenges by leveraging the full range of professional capabilities from the international network of Deloitte member firms. In addition to delivering consulting, financial advisory, international tax, and audit services, Deloitte contributes to research and analysis of industry issues and trends, thus connecting our experts and their clients to a seamless network of specialist oil and gas industry knowledge that extends right around the world. 

We have formed significant strategic alliances with a number of industry associations working in the oil and gas sector, including the Energy Institute, World Petroleum Congress, World Economic Forum, Oxford Institute for Energy Studies, and the Cambridge Centre for Energy Studies. Our involvement with these organizations ranges from the co-development of major research and project initiatives to participation in discussion groups and industry forums.

Our petroleum services group (PSG) is one of the leading providers of information solutions and advisory services to the upstream oil and gas sector. PSG helps companies gain increased market insight and competitive advantage through their extensive databases, data management technology and economic modelling framework.

Our Middle East oil & gas center of excellence is evidence of Deloitte's commitment to and investment in serving the oil and gas sector. Through our Middle East oil & gas center of excellence, clients have access to a wealth of leading industry-focused professionals with global capabilities who offer an invaluable resource in addressing the range of challenges facing oil and gas companies in the local, regional and global marketplace.
