REVIEWS ON OVERSEAS EXPLORATION OF CHINESE PETROLEUM COMPANIES UNDER LOW OIL PRICE

 To overcome the impact of low oil price on Chinese petroleum companies`s oversea strategic investment, to prepare for the risks and to improve efficiency in overseas oil exploration and development, this paper analyzes the background of low oil price and its trend, studies the measurements that international companies took for the low oil price, and summarizes the current overseas exploration situation of Chinese petroleum companies and global oil gas resources and trend.
