ICG provides Market Research in Oil & Gas since 1998.

We have partner relations with governmental agencies, several large state-run and private O&G upstream and downstream operators, including national companies, pipeline transportation operators, etc. We have abilities to make interviews in local languages, to access governmental and industry sources (such as custom offices’ import and export records, license and certification registers, best-practice-case databases, etc.)

Currently we provide the following services in mining markets worldwide:
