Abstract: Organizational structural adjustment of an enterprise is the guarantee for realization of its strategic goals and one of the engines for its business results and sustainable development. Against the background of global carbon peak and carbon neutrality, international oil companies face internal and external pressure and accelerate formulation of the goals for low-carbon transition, establishing the joint mechanism to make low-carbon solutions in common. As for option of the transition strategy, most of the European oil companies are radical while their North American counterparts are passive and conservative. The national oil companies of resources countries act as followers. To highlight the low-carbon transition, a number of international oil companies adjust their organizational structure and establish additional low-carbon business departments at the levels of management and business. Taking TotalEnergies, Shell and Chevron as examples, this paper analyzes the methods and characteristics of their organizational structural adjustment. It also elaborates the changes in the organizational structure of China’s petroleum enterprises and comes up with some suggestions concerning how to adapt the internal transformation with the external situation. First of all, the top-level design of low-carbon development should be enhanced to bring about transition to integrated energy firms from the oil and gas concentrated companies. Secondly, it is necessary to integrate “oil & gas +” superior resources to make full use of the R&D and technological advantages of the State-owned enterprises. Thirdly, low-carbon risks management should be strengthened to prevent and eliminate the risks from the external environment which may take place in the future.
