Top Oil Stocks for an Energy Dependent World

A list of publicly traded stocks and ETFs involved in oil drilling, production, exploration, refining, and marketing.
Fri, Dec 26th, 2025

Despite talk about moving away from oil dependence, the fact remains that much of the world cannot function without oil. Whenever oil supply is disrupted, the price surges, which trickles down and impacts the cost of food, shipping, and transportation, just to name a few examples. For this reason and many others, investors may want exposure to oil stocks. Oil stocks can include companies involved in drilling, production, exploration, refining and marketing. Barchart’s Top Oil Stocks list will help investors identify and compare oil stocks to find the best investment opportunities.
