    Hhello there,

    Does anyone know where i could get industry data for oil and gas industry. I am currently looking for oil and gas industry revenue data for my OBU research. I could get for individual oil majors via investopeadia, MNS etc, but no data for industry on revenue.

    I would appreciate any information that could help me regarding the above. here is my email for any assistance; ibrahim_heroes@yahoo.com. Thank you

    Thanks for ur reply, I am looking into PETRONAS. I got petronas data but looking for industry financial ratio from 2008 t0 2011 for industry comparison. but I have manage to average for oil majors like shell,chevron,bp, exxon mobil and conco philip to represent industry data. will that be ok? or do i still need to get overall industry ratio?

    If you cant get industry averages than just compare with one other company of same size and same products.

    I am resubmitting my RAP and the word count has gone up (from 6,400 to 8,000) Can anyone guide me if this will be a problem or not.
    (A friend says “During re submission you are not allowed to delete the older text from the project, so if the marker asks you to add anything it increases the word count. This is not a problem.”)
    I need guidance please

    8000 words not allowed, edit your stuff prudently so that your passed parts remain pass and get space for new stuff. Please note the info pack words “RECOMMENDED FORMAT” and its not mandatory format. so band rules and get space for markers requirements.

    your words counts should 6400-6500. there are some techniques to reduce the words count.

    like:
    Right as FY2011 this is one word instead of FY 2011 that is two words.
    similarly PKR300 instead of PKR 300.
    Convert graphs to pictures
    and reduce unneseccary wording.

    If u still need help just email me
