Oil and Gas Research

Hi does anyone has any books or material to read up to understand this piece of equity research? At a particular bank, I was given a short time to read this and come up with a thesis but I had no clue where to begin. I left the interview room, feeling distraught but later motivated. I'm planning to take a week to read on Oil 101 and digest it fully before putting myself up for interviews.

Background info: I currently have done 3 Investment Banking Internships at MM Banks but am planning to dive into O&G since I'm a Chemical Engineering and Business undergraduate. However, I'm only familiar with the distillation, petrochemical process, basic DCF, M&A, LBO and comparable models.

Thank you.
