Interesting that O&G doesn't even rank in the top 10 in the US. But in terms of global industries, I would say O&G has to be the biggest if not top three. 6 of the top 10 companies by revenue globally are Oilco's. Granted, O&G is much more consolidated than most, but global commerce and civilisation as a whole is reliant on dat dere black gold.
