Exploration and production (E&P) is a distinct segment of the oil and gas industry that is associated with the initial phase of energy production. It typically entails the discovery and extraction of oil and gas. An E&P firm locates and obtains the raw materials needed by the energy industry. They typically locate and extract raw materials to be shipped to other oil companies during the production process, but they do not refine or produce energy.
The search, exploration, drilling, and extraction stages of the oil and gas industry are collectively referred to as the upstream sector, or E&P. The first step in the production of oil and gas is the exploration and production (E&P) phase. The main goals of the businesses in this sector are to find and remove resources from the Earth.
