The is an in-depth company analysis that ranks six key operational metrics together with 60 additional parameters of company performance. Here are some of the key findings from the recent ranking:PDVSA dropped one spot to No. 5, reflecting declining metrics resulting from Venezuela鈥檚 deepening economic crisis.BP reclaimed the No. 6 spot due to liquids output gains, while Shell鈥檚 two-spot drop to No. 8 reflects the impact of its ongoing $30 billion divestment program.Pure-play shale operators now comprise 17 of the Top 100 companies due to rapid production and reserves growth, including expansion beyond key Appalachian and Permian regions.Future Top 100 rankings hinge on post-downturn growth plans, where capital discipline, investor expectations and demand uncertainty will impact corporate decision making.New entrants include: Gulfport Resources (No. 84), Cimarex Energy (No. 89), Galp (No. 91), Newfield Exploration (No. 97) and Occidental spinoff California Resources Corp.
