Sector Overview:

PetroChina and Sinopec Group are ahead of Saudi Aramco and BP on the list of the world's
largest oil and gas firms in 2020, with sales ranging from $270 billion to $280 billion. While the
two Chinese companies gained from their country's strong control of the coronavirus
pandemic, their 2020 sales are still between 25 and 35 percent lower than those of 2019.

Oil and gas industry dollar revenues declined in 2020, according to the Forbes Global 2000.
Royal Dutch Shell's income has dropped by more than half. Exxon Mobil, which came in sixth
place, saw its revenue drop by 35% in 2020, while Chevron's sales fell by 40% from the previous
year. Russian company Gazprom came in rank 9 in 2020, while Rosneft did not make the top 10
last year, having been kicked out by Ohio-based Marathon Petroleum.

Except in a crisis, three-digit sales in the billions are not rare in the oil and gas industry, but
revenues are known to fluctuate significantly in response to the price of crude oil on the global
market. Sinopec, for example, has merged its energy and chemicals businesses.

Saudi Aramco, a Saudi Arabian oil firm, was a newcomer to the list in 2018. The oil company,
which is still largely owned by the government, released financial figures for the first time that
year in preparation for its initial public offering, which took place in December 2019. Since the
company was nationalized in the 1970s, Saudi Aramco's accounts had remained mostly secret.
