Against the background of rapid growth in oil prices, the company’s financial indicators for the last quarter showed a serious increase. Moreover, in 2020, #COP acquired Concho Resources, a company that develops oil and natural gas fields. However, on the rise in US inflation, operating expenses may also rise. But it is too early to talk about a possible significant drop in marginality.

Thus, market conditions are now conducive to the prosperity of ConocoPhillips. Moreover, many analysts predict the price of oil per barrel at $100, which certainly increases the attractiveness of the company for a potential investor.
