The oil and gas industries are typically separated into 3 major industries: upstream, midstream and downstream. The upstream oil industry is frequently known as the expedition and manufacturing market. The upstream sector features the searching for possible underground or undersea crude oil and natural gas areas, drilling of exploratory wells, and subsequently exploration and operating the wells that bounce back and bring the petroleum or raw gas to the surface.
