The Board identified eight key trends that are defining what the future of energy will look like in 2025, including:
🔹 Gas as the bridge and the battleground
🔹 Carbon management: from compliance to commercialisation
🔹 The Middle East as an emerging as a global investor, not just a producer
🔹 Energy transition rhetoric being replaced by transition realism
At the World Energy Capital Assembly (WECA), December 2-3, we will convene global leaders to examine these challenges and explore how oil and gas companies are balancing energy security, affordability, and sustainability while addressing the financing hurdles of a lower-carbon energy transformation.
