This State of the National Oil & Gas Industry report aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of transportation and logistics for the oil & gas industry, shedding light on its key drivers, trends, and emerging technologies. By examining the current landscape and forecasting future developments, we seek to equip executives, industry managers, and stakeholders with valuable insights to navigate the ever-evolving logistics landscape.
Highlights for the oil & gas report include:
- Despite threatening to hit several of the U.S.’ top trading partners with 100% tariffs, President Trump’s ultimatum to Russia for a peace deal with Ukraine was shrugged off by oil markets.
- Although overall freight demand is soft in July, capacity continues to trickle out of the market, though niche trucking modes are more vulnerable to volatility.
- Macroeconomic data is souring, though manufacturers are growing more hopeful for a second-half recovery.
- A slow-to-hire, slow-to-fire labor market is seemingly not dire enough to convince the Federal Open Market Committee to cut rates at its July meeting, with traders believing that cuts are off the table until at least September.
- June saw a slight decline in domestic oil production after heavy downward revisions to May’s data. Still, the EIA believes that U.S. output will top April’s record later this year, with growth continuing into the first half of 2026.
