AIPN 2021 International Petroleum Summit: Conference Program

DAY 1: THE OIL & GAS SECTOR IN THE CONTEXT OF GLOBAL DECARBONIZATION

World oil markets are re-balancing after the Covid-19 crisis, spurred by an unprecedented collapse in 2020, and there may be no return to “normal”. In IEA’s latest Oil 2021 forecast, by 2026 the global oil demand will grow to 104.1 mb/d, an increase of 4.4 mb/d from 2019 levels, driven by Asia’s emerging and developing economies underpinned by rising populations and incomes. However, the global drive for decarbonization as evidenced in countries committing to net zero ambitions, as well as COP26, are shining a spotlight on the evolving role of the oil & gas sector.

Today’s program will showcase global leading authorities who will share their perspectives and pathways for the oil & gas industry toward a secure and affordable energy future, while at the same time addressing the energy poverty faced by a multitude of countries.

All times listed below are in Bangkok time (UTC +7).

DAY 2: ENERGY TRANSITION DRIVE AND OIL & GAS SECTOR’S EVOLVING ROLE

Increasingly the oil & gas sector is re-aligning with the drive for energy transition. The role of gas and particularly LNG, for example, has evolved significantly over the last decade, as a low carbon fossil fuel. Countries across Europe and major countries in Asia, like China and India, have chosen gas as the preferred pathway to decarbonization. Traditional oil & gas companies are actively investing in technologies to decarbonize their operations, such as CCS, field electrifications to replace traditional gas and diesel turbines, or direct renewables integration such as offshore wind farm, and even establishing new independent divisions to advance these initiatives. That said, energy poverty and accessibility that plagues many developing countries – likely will continue to be primarily addressed by traditional fossil fuels.

Today’s program will explore the oil & gas sector’s evolving role and opportunities in shaping our energy future – creating a lower carbon the value chain and intensifying the role of new technologies, as well as, accentuating the force that women leaders are bringing to bear on the energy industry and the transition.

DAY 3: IDEAS AND SOLUTIONS FOR THE OIL & GAS SECTOR'S FUTURE

Oil and gas will continue to play a significant role in the energy mix until 2050 and beyond, eradicating energy poverty and addressing access issues in many developing countries. Sustainable E&P is necessary, where the climate commitment, like COP26, will place increasing pressure on the oil & gas sector to re-think ideas and solutions for a low carbon future. Companies have responded by decarbonizing their value chain, expanding into new sectors such as hydrogen. The path to a low carbon future is accelerating. ESG is also increasingly adopted by a broad spectrum of energy companies.

Today’s program will discuss both strategic and technical perspectives, ideas and solutions for a lower carbon future.
