Since there is no unified currency in the world, the currencies of sovereign countries are mainly used as international currencies. Therefore, in order to coordinate the trade activities and international payment activities between independent countries, the international financial system is particularly important. The impact of international financial factors on the oil and gas resources market is mainly manifested in investment opportunities and risk control, transaction prices and foreign exchange risks. International financial activities will also involve the turnover and circulation of international monetary capital, mainly through foreign exchange. Therefore, international financial market and foreign exchange market are two major concerns.

When a country's capital flows to the exploration and exploitation of oil and gas resources, it will increase the reserves and exploitation of oil and gas resources, and the oil price may fall due to sufficient supply; On the contrary, the reduction of supply makes the oil price rise, which in turn promotes the flow of funds to this field. Therefore, it shows the close relationship between oil and gas resources investment and oil price. When a country's capital flows to other countries' oil and gas markets, it promotes the development and utilization of oil and gas resources in other countries, and also links the relationship between the two countries, so it will promote geopolitical changes. Thus, there is a close relationship between investment and geopolitics in the development and utilization of oil and gas, a strategic resource.

At the same time, we should also pay attention to the link between exchange rate and oil price caused by the international oil and gas transaction settlement system. Because the difference between oil and gas supply and demand between countries is particularly obvious in geographical location, and there may be exchange rate differences in the currencies used by countries; In addition, different payment methods and payment time will also bring different degrees of influence. All these will affect the fluctuation of oil and gas price system. For example, in July 2004, due to the order of the Russian government, the Yukos Siberian factory stopped production, which may lead to insufficient global oil supply, and crude oil futures hit a new high of $43.05/barrel. High oil prices can not only slow down the economic growth in the United States, but also fuel inflation and speed up the Fed's interest rate hike. The dollar is still consolidating at a high level.

The foreign exchange market not only directly affects the transactions in the oil and gas market, but also has greater potential influence. For example, the depreciation of the US dollar and the appreciation of the RMB will all affect China's exports. The cost of China's export products has risen, and the export of enterprises has been restrained, which has led to a decline in the output of export products and a decrease in the energy consumption of oil and gas needed for production, which may indicate that the supply of oil and gas market exceeds demand. In this way, the decline of oil and gas prices or oil and gas production will affect the chain reaction of oil and gas market investment.

In a word, the influence of finance and foreign exchange market on oil and gas market is mainly manifested in two aspects: product price and sales strategy.
