Galp Energia is a Portuguese energy company that finds, produces, and sells oil and natural gas. It also runs refineries that turn crude oil into fuels like gasoline and diesel, and it operates a network of gas stations across Portugal and Spain. Galp is one of the largest energy companies in Portugal and has significant oil production operations offshore Brazil, particularly in the Santos Basin.

Galp earns money by selling refined fuels, crude oil, and natural gas, as well as through its retail fuel stations. The company operates mainly in Portugal, Spain, Brazil, and parts of Africa, including Mozambique and Angola. Its competitive edge comes from low-cost deepwater oil assets in Brazil, where production costs are relatively cheap. The key growth driver is expanding output from its Brazilian fields, but the main risk is that falling global oil prices could quickly squeeze profits, since Galp's earnings are closely tied to commodity price swings.
