Domestic energy companies increasingly are making unconventional resources part of their production strategies, a survey of 100 U.S. oil and gas CFOS has found.

As tensions between Iran and the western world increase, the country’s threat to shut down the Strait of Hormuz weighs increasingly on energy markets.
