    OGI annual rate increases 1 January

    Oil and Gas International has maintained its annual subscription fee at just US$349 for over five years, but like all other businesses, our costs have risen every year. Now for the first time since we went live on the Internet, we must raise our subscription rates to $389 to better cover our costs.
    Oil and Gas International is by every measure the world's leading source of daily news and information for the worldwide upstream petroleum industry, with an average of 25 reports every day by veteran petroleum journalists around the world and more exclusive reports, maps, photos, and graphics than any other site. Yet even with the $40 increase in our annual access fee, the price of being on top of the industry's news every day is still less than the cost of a daily newspaper. We encourage you to compare, then renew before the rate goes up.

    Subscribe or renew before yearend at 2006 rate All subscriptions, whether new or renewal, individual or corporate, received before 1 January 2007 will be accepted at the 2006 rate.
