Results from the Integrated Oil & Gas Sector: The 2015 Strategy and Corporate Performance in the Energy Industry (SCOPE) Study

Abstract

We report results for the Integrated Oil & Gas sector from the Strategy and Performance in the Energy Industry (SCOPE) Survey conducted among professionals in the energy industry (so called “insiders”) to measure their perceptions about specific companies on multiple dimensions of strategic performance. The study includes five of the most prominent integrated oil & gas companies: 1) BP, 2) Chevron, 3) ConocoPhillips, 4) ExxonMobil, and 5) Shell. This report includes analysis based on a total of 444 individual company evaluations provided by 376 O&G industry insiders. Using indexed scores, we report the relative performance of the five companies on ten different dimensions of strategic performance: leadership and strategy, financial management, customer focus, corporate social responsibility, innovation, human resources, safety, global focus, crisis handling, and vendor satisfaction. The results of each company’s overall reputation among O&G industry insiders are also reported.
