With so much information out there, it’s nice to know that there are sites like Oil & Gas IQ, which compile relevant industry-information into one place. Thanks to @OilandGasIQ, you can stay up-to-date with the latest content without leaving Twitter. I spoke with Sumit Dutta, of the London, Dubai and Singapore-based hub-of-information known as Oil & Gas IQ. In Sumit’s own words:
OilandGasIQ.com is an online portal which connects the global oil and gas community and provides free articles, videos, podcasts, reports and webinars examining important issues and challenges in the industry. We also offer content from our network of oil and gas events such as speaker presentations.
