Aberdeen Global Market Outlook Business Breakfast

Global Market Outlook Business Breakfast

 “Is confidence returning to the Oil & Gas sector or should we refocus on diversification away from hydrocarbon for profits & growth?”

Join us on the 25th of January at the Marcliffe, Pitfodels Aberdeen

Through 2017 we have seen oil prices stabilise at around $50 a barrel and begin to creep upward towards $60. Some are calling this price range the new industry “norm”, however is this a false dawn or a genuine recovery towards a price where sustainable field development can be maintained?

Also, subsea and underwater industries seem to have recognised the need for change, innovation and the beneficial deployment of technology are once again being talked of in terms of unlocking hydrocarbon wealth.  Should the subsea industry refocus and accelerate diversification into low carbon energy sectors or continue the previously trodden path as oil recovers?

These topics will delved into in January 2018 at our successful breakfast, which will take place at The Marcliffe Hotel,  full breakfast from 0700 with speakers starting at 0730.
