The service focuses on those national oil companies (NOCs) that are expanding their involvement in the international upstream sector, positioning as competitors to the international oil companies (IOCs); and those NOCs/countries that represent current and potential upstream/midstream investment opportunities for the IOCs.

• Key Personnel: Within the NOC and the parent Ministry
• Financial performance: Where available, the NOC's finances are analyzed; with particular attention to the NOC's financial relationship with the government and potential problems that may emerge within that relationship
