World Oil
U.S. oil-and-gas industry trade
World Oil is a Houston-based trade publication owned by Gulf Energy Information, serving the upstream oil and gas industry since 1916. Its coverage is explicitly oriented toward industry interests, focusing on exploration, drilling, and production technology. It has generally welcomed Trump administration energy policies — particularly expanded offshore leasing, Alaska drilling, and permitting acceleration — consistent with its pro-industry editorial stance.
