The International Energy Agency (IEA) forecast oil demand will peak around 2030. However, analysts expect hydrocarbons to play a part in the future energy mix for decades to come, especially in those industry sectors where as yet there is no obvious alternative to fossil fuel utilisation. Just how rapidly developing countries where basic electrification still remains problematic can transition from oil, gas and coal is another major issue in future energy scenarios. How companies will adapt to the changing energy landscape, i.e., meeting unspecified future demand for oil and gas and energy security while making the pivot to low-carbon energy solutions. Will new business models evolve, will incremental change be sufficient, will stakeholders support change, how far will governments intervene. These are the questions to be discussed by our panel.
