This year's Platts Top 250 includes a new classification - Fastest Growing Companies - based on a three-year measure of compound growth.
Interestingly, while oil companies may dominate the overall rankings, the "fast growers" are a much more diverse bunch.
And eight out of ten of the top ten in this category came from outside the overall top 15 rankings.
Hong Kong-based independent power producer China Resource Power Holdings rocketed into the first spot here, growing its revenues by 131% over the three-year period, making it the fourth fastest growing energy company in the world.
Indonesian coal business PT Bumi Resources came in as the second-fastest growing company in the region, up 65% in revenue terms over the measured three-year period.
Runaway successful Japanese E&P company Inpex Holdings, the largest such business in Japan, ranked third in growth terms, boosting revenues over three years by almost 52%.
Refining and marketing experts Caltex Australia was fourth, with impressive 40% growth over three years.
Thailand's PTT Exploration & Production, China's Datang Power, Sinopec, PTT the parent company, China Yangtze Power, and Thailand's Irpc secured the fifth to tenth places respectively.
China and India dominate sector leadership positions
The Platts Rankings also identify energy leaders based on eight sectoral classifications: Integrated oil and gas companies, Exploration and Production, Refining and Marketing, Coal and Combustible Fuels, Electric Utilities, Independent Power Producers, Gas Utilities, and Diversified Utlities.
Here new leaders have emerged in three of the eight categories.
In the #1 in Asia by Industry chart there are 3 new industry leaders: Tokyo Electric Power Co. takes the top slot among electric utilities.
The Tokyo Gas Company rockets into first place among Gas Utilities, while China Shenhua Energy take pole position in the coal sector.
