“This edition will build on the productive discussions at the last roundtable held in June and will enable us to share perspectives on the role of the industry in the energy transition and how our industry can reinforce its resilience, operate more sustainably and remain competitive in a fast-evolving energy landscape.”
The Abu Dhabi CEO Virtual Roundtable will be held during the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC) one of the world’s largest events for the energy sector, which takes place virtually due to the pandemic.
The moderator of the roundtable Dr. Yergin stated that the forum will address the key areas of resilience both economic and physical which will benefit in the post-pandemic world.
“The global oil industry has demonstrated remarkable resilience in seamlessly operating and delivering supplies to consumers worldwide in the face of both the massive Covid disruption and a demand requirement that is down only 10 percent for the year, despite lockdowns,” Dr. Yergin further added.
