Precisely, you'd not stand a chance of proving them wrong.

Compared to other sectors?

You LOSE again GASBAG!

How do oil profits compare with those of other industries?

The oil and gas industry is one of the world�s largest industries, and 
as a consequence its profits are often greater than many other 
industries. However, merely comparing the size of profits among various 
industries doesn�t indicate how profitable a particular industry may be. 
A more useful tool for comparison is profit margin (calculated by 
dividing net income by total sales). When this measure is applied, the 
profitability of the oil and gas industry frequently falls below that of 
other major industries.

As indicated in the graphic, the profit margin of U.S. oil and gas 
companies was slightly above that of all industry in the third quarter 
of 2006. However, the industry's profitability remained below the profit 
margins of other industries such as pharmaceuticals, electrical 
equipment and computers.

Financial - net profit margin : 17.6%

Major Integrated Oil & Gas :    10.6%
