Oil and gas production is slowly picking back up but indicators suggest that bringing it back will be difficult. Particularly as we see fossil fuel demand hitting a plateau somewhere around 2030–2035, oil and gas companies will be looking to transition to “clean energy” companies or will be downsizing, merging, or closing their doors. Regardless, this means a radically different employment skills landscape than where we are now.
