The march of innovation and transformation in the global energy business shows no sign of ebbing. Industry and government alike across our hemisphere are looking to technological solutions for the vexing challenges of a modern energy sector that supports economic development in a sustainable manner. Technological innovation is poised to be a key element for insuring the energy industry’s profitability and competitiveness and perhaps nowhere is this more critical than with digitalization and data. By some accounts we generate 50,000 gigabytes of data per second. There are myriad ways to unravel and analyze this data. The Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) and increased use of data analytics are increasingly part of the energy transition conversation, principally in terms of boosting productivity and adding value. But where exactly are we today in this rapidly evolving dynamic and what is different, and why does it matter?
Join us
Webinar discussion and analysis with Dominic John on the role of digitalization, data analytics and what the distinctions are between digital prey and digital predators. Dominic John is Vice President of Marketing and Technical Communications at OSIsoft.
The webinar will be held Thursday, July 6 at 11:00am San Diego (2pm Washington, DC; GMT/UTC – 8 hours). The formal presentation will be followed by a Q&A session with the audience.
The success in Mexico’s deepwater auction and Pemex joint venture last December may prove a harbinger of a more positive outlook for Latin America’s oil and gas sector. Indeed, the first few months of the year point to increased activity in Brazil, Argentina, and Colombia while Mexico appears set to continue its aggressive oil and gas auction rounds this year. Brazil is conducting bidding while relaxing stringent local content requirements. Meanwhile, the major oil discovery in Guyana could boost interest in its neighbors. Overall, there are several positive trend lines that amount to an exciting outlook and race to the top for countries across the region.
Join us for a webinar discussion with RoseAnne Franco and her analysis on the region’s political economy and what these trends signify for oil & gas in 2017 and beyond. RoseAnne Franco is Head of Oil & Gas Risk at the firm Verisk Maplecroft.
The webinar will be held Thursday, April 20 at 11:00am San Diego (1pm Houston; GMT/UTC – 8 hours). Franco’s formal presentation will be followed by a Q&A session with the audience.
Donald Trump praised the role for renewable fuels and underscored their importance for “America’s economy and to our energy independence.” For many others, renewable fuels are a critical component of a pathway to a low-carbon economy. What does the United States and more particularly the California experience portend for the hemisphere? How can the evolving policy discourse on renewable fuels in the United States inform similar decisions in Latin America?
Join us for a webinar discussion and analysis with Cynthia Obadia focused on the economic and environmental elements of renewable fuels lessons from the United States as part of the policy conversation across the hemisphere. Cynthia Obadia is a Renewable Fuels Consultant. Prior to her current role as a consultant for biofuels producers and consumers in maximizing the revenues from financial incentives from California’s carbon regulations as well as EPA’s Renewable Fuel Standards (RFS), she spent several years as an energy trading professional working at a variety of firms including Shell, Goldman Sachs, and Petroleos de Venezuela (PDVSA).
The webinar will be held Friday, June 9 at 11:00am San Diego (2pm Washington, DC; GMT/UTC – 8 hours). Obadia’s formal presentation will be followed by a Q&A session with the audience.
There is little debate over the extent of the natural resource potential that lies below ground in Venezuela. And the country’s outsized influence on global energy geopolitics has been the source of countless research papers and analysis. But what is increasingly open for discussion is what the future — near-term and long-term — holds for Venezuela’s oil outlook and the country’s energy sector and economy more broadly.
Join us for a webinar discussion with Raul Gallegos on the future of the Venezuelan oil sector and how one of the world’s foremost oil economies manages its economic duress and what is best described as an advanced stage of institutional destruction. Raul Gallegos is a Senior Analyst, Andean Region, Global Risk Analysis at the advisory firm Control Risks and is author of the book Crude Nation: How Oil Riches Ruined Venezuela
The webinar will be held Friday, March 17 at 12:00pm San Diego (4pm Caracas; GMT/UTC – 8 hours). Gallegos’ formal presentation will be followed by a Q&A session with the audience.
