Abstract

The energy issues have always constituted an important topic for governments, policy makers, companies, non-governmental organizations, scientists, and academics. The last decades have witnessed the increasing diversification of resources and technologies within the energy sector. However, oil, coal, and natural gas have remained the most important sources of energy in the world. Some of the key stakeholders of the energy sector are the energy companies. The paper aims to present and analyse the evolution of the ten largest energy companies in the world by their revenues in the period 2016-2017. The research is based on a quantitative method. The paper shows that the top of the world’s ten largest energy companies in the period 2016-2017 was dominated by the same companies in a relative high proportion.
