Ok, with the CEO fully committed to run the place into the ground, make your best guess which units get thinned come July 1st. A few ice breakers:
Unconventionals - cuts already in progress
Conventional oil & gas R&D (why bother anymore?)I
Drilling - lots of paper pushers, NTPs
Exploration - definitely some thinning, too much skill-less deadwood hiding in the thick forest
Development - no reorg since 2019, things are getting slow, needs to be freshened up
HR - face it, the US HR ain't good at keeping legal trouble away anyway, off they go
Honorable mention - digitalization, why waste money here if one can buy instead some profit-less windmills
NL folks - just too many of them there, take out every 3rd one
More observations?
