Siberia; stronger upstream natural gas play Asia only modest upstream oil play – India, SE Asia, E. Siberia; stronger upstream natural gas play Asia NOCs inflating prices in global E&P market Asia NOCs inflating prices in global E&P market NOCs changing competitive landscape for IOCs NOCs changing competitive landscape for IOCs China, Asia to become big players in global energy geopolitics China, Asia to become big players in global energy geopolitics Persian Gulf Persian Gulf Central Asia Central Asia Russia Russia OPEC OPEC
