Dr. Birol returns to the Agora for a deep discussion on energy transition. How fast can technology drive this change? How is geopolitics shaping global energy markets? Why is shale the game changer? Can renewables become a significant portion of the world's energy mix? Is there irrational exuberance about the pace of EV penetration? Interviewed by Atul Arya, SVP and Chief Energy Strategist, IHS Markit.
Join Ashok Belani and Blake Moret as they share their vision to create end-to-end solutions and technology platform to automate entire upstream operations from drilling to production, well to terminal, conventional and unconventional, onshore and offshore. Will this be the answer to provide complete lifecycle and process automation solutions? Interviewed by Atul Arya, SVP and Chief Energy Strategist, IHS Markit.
The idea of an energy transition to a low-carbon world has now gone mainstream. The combination of concern about the risks of climate change and focus about new clean technologies has captured the public attention, the interest of the general press, and some of the political dialogue in almost every country. For companies in the energy business, this has brought pressure in the form of shareholder resolutions, and calls for divestment from fossil fuels. This pressure is coming from major investors. Is money moving into low-carbon investments? Will the shift in sentiment constrict ability to invest in oil and gas and lead to higher prices? How should companies respond?
Join this conversation with a leader of one of the world's most successful technology companies on how the cloud is changing the energy system. Interviewed by Atul Arya, SVP and Chief Energy Strategist, IHS Markit.
ABB CEO Ulrich Spiesshofer explores some of the big questions facing the energy industry in the coming years: How are digital technologies transforming energy sector? How is ABB preparing its workforce for this brave new world? And will oil and gas remain a major part of the energy mix for the foreseeable future? Interviewed by Atul Arya, SVP and Chief Energy Strategist, IHS Markit.
As energy markets and technologies change and there is increasing focus to address climate change, major oil and gas companies are facing a number of challenges that will fundamentally affect their strategies and business models. What are some of the strategies that companies are undertaking to address the forces of energy transition? Can oil/gas companies successfully broaden their portfolios to become energy companies? Which strategies will be successful and why?
Thought leader and leading expert on technology innovation, Andy Karsner talks about how entrepreneurs are transforming the global energy system and how he would design a sustainable energy system. Interviewed by Atul Arya, SVP and Chief Energy Strategist, IHS Markit.
Get personal insights into UAE’s journey from a nation rich in oil resources to one that will lead The Middle East into the next technological revolution. Interviewed by Atul Arya, SVP and Chief Energy Strategist, IHS Markit.
CCUS – “carbon capture, utilization and storage” is back on the energy agenda. The reason is clear. A rapid scale up of CCUS is essential for meeting climate and emissions targets while not crippling economic growth. CCUS for EOR is a proven technology and is now seeing widespread use in the Permian Basin in Texas. 45Q tax credit is providing a new impetus for CO2 EOR. What is the potential for CO2 for EOR? What are the regulatory and operational challenges? What changes are required in 45Q to accelerate deployment of CO2 for EOR?
How will digital technologies shape the future? Lal Karsanbhai talks about how Emerson places itself in a global context, and why they have chosen to focus on energy as one of its strategic priorities. Interviewed by Atul Arya, SVP and Chief Energy Strategist, IHS Markit.
Carbon capture, use, and storage is recognized as a vital option in the quest to reduce carbon emissions. The technology exists and is proven, but deployment needs to accelerate. How can policymakers and industry participants work together to provide the necessary incentives to spur activity and gain public trust?
Nature Based Solutions (NBS) is the use of nature for tackling variety of socio-environmental challenges including climate change. NBS may present a short-term opportunity to mitigate emissions and may be able to deliver about a third of GHG reductions required. What are some of these solutions? What is the cost? How are some of the challenges such as verification being addressed?
Solar Radiation Management or Solar Geoengineering techniques aim to reflect a small proportion of the Sun’s energy back into space, counteracting the temperature rise caused by increased levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. What is the cost and technical feasibility of these technologies? What are the political, ethical, legal issues? What are the risks of these approaches? What will be some of the potential deployment strategies?
Envision a new world of mobility that is connected, heterogeneous, intelligent, and personalized. Come hear from Dr. Venkat Sumantran about how the world is moving from the century of the automobile to the century of mobility. Interviewed by Atul Arya, SVP and Chief Energy Strategist, IHS Markit.
Join an energy expert and Stanford professor and the founding Director of the Advanced Research Projects Agency - Energy (ARPA-E) on what it will take to scale energy innovations and the role of public policy in transforming global energy systems. Interviewed by Atul Arya, SVP and Chief Energy Strategist, IHS Markit.
