GLOBAL BUSINESS LEADERS – WORLD OIL OUTLOOK
Leading through the cycle – anticipating future industry and economic pressures including the $ price per barrel.What can the industry expect short term 6-12 months? And longer term 5-10 years? And how can we continue to adapt to ensure continued growth?
Redefining the industry – are we actively thinking outside the norm? How are business leaders anticipating and preparing for unexpected challenges and opportunities whilst ensuring continued and improved performance with energy efficient integrated operations?
Sustaining oil production – how are global companies preparing to keep ahead of oil reserve depletion squeezing the last drop of conventional oil and maximising recovery rates of existing mature fields, at the same time as harnessing the search to explore new, harder to find oil discoveries? Where does tight oil, heavy oil and shale oil fit within the overall conventional oil mix?

GLOBAL BUSINESS LEADERS – THE GOLDEN AGE FOR GAS AND LNG?
Over the next 10-15 years, what future global fuel mix will we see? What will be the roles for coal, nuclear and renewable energies versus gas and LNG for increased domestic and industrial power needs? Can gas make a case globally as the preferred fuel of choice over coal for power generation? What role will gas and LNG play as a transport fuel for marine and road vehicles?
Are we now entering the ‘golden age for gas’ where cleaner, more flexible energy will help deliver affordable energy? Who will take the leader board in gas and LNG production and export and which new E&P stakeholder partnerships and relationships will we see emerging as a result?
What will the gas and LNG supply landscape look like in 5-10 years? Will China and India become leading consumers of gas on a par with Japan and Korea? Will Qatar and Russia see major competition from LNG’s new golden boy Australia? What about the wildcard in the mix, Iran ramping up production? Given current market conditions, will the US continue to benefit from their unconventional shale gas boom, continuing to influence and shape global gas production?
Where will the next wave of gas supply come from by 2020? How will increased product availability in the coming 5-10 years shake up and impact global gas pricing structures?
