35. 5. Concluding Remarks5. Concluding Remarks

36. ■ KNOC as a state-owned company responsible for oil/gas supply security
in Korea :
- Needs to increase the investment in upstream
- Needs to contribute to improve physical oil distribution system in the
Far East
- Needs to develop human resources and technical specialties to
achieve KNOC’s mission
■ KNOC will overcome the challenging situation in upstream by :
- Globalizing its own management
- Mutual cooperation with host countries and IOCs
- Enhanced E&P Activities
- Diversified investment in the lines of business
