Meanwhile, a separate index reading from the survey showed oil production remained positive but slowed, falling to 10.5 from 25.8, with the natural gas production index sinking to 7.4 from 29.4. That pessimism is reflected in the company outlook index, which showed a 27.2-point decline from the prior quarter. Execs also pointed to heightened inflation pressures and the health of the global economy as the factors that would most sway their company's profitability this year.
