Employment figures decreased in the oil, natural gas, and chemicals industry between December 2019 and August 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, with a total of 107 thousand lost jobs in the United States. A pessimistic scenario outlook, where oil prices will remain around 35 U.S. dollars per barrel and gas prices at 2.50 U.S. dollars per million British thermal units, would see only three percent of jobs recovered by the end of 2021. Even within the optimistic scenario outlook, not all jobs are set to be recovered.
