The capital structure of oil and gas firms is still a relatively under-investigation part in the literature of capital structure. Actually, none till now has examined the determinants of capital structure choice of oil and gas firms over the period 2000-2014, taking into account the impact of the global financial crisis in the period 2007-2009 on the capital structure decision of the firms. As a result, this book tries to fill the gap in the literature by making a contribution to the growing body of investigational corporate financial research in the oil and gas industry. A base thereby set for further research and improvements into the capital structure decisions of the oil and gas industry.
