Oil and gas (O&G) companies deal with vast amounts of sensitive information, and protecting it is vital to prevent financial loss, reputational damage, and regulatory non-compliance. Playing a vital role in the global economy, the oil and gas industry is a prime cyber threat target. A cyberattack on O&G critical infrastructure could cause physical, environmental, and economic harm and broad disruptions to oil and gas supplies and markets. Cybersecurity is paramount for the oil and gas industry as it plays a critical role in securing the sensitive data and operational technology that enables the industry to extract, produce, and transport oil and gas. The paper focuses on systematically exploring cybersecurity and safety challenges of the O&G sector.
