Mexican tragedy, North African best enemies and Cambo kerfuffle

This week, the team reflects on the shocking and fatal explosion on a Pemex platform in the Gulf of Mexico. Allister asks whether the to-ing and fro-ing in Mexican oil policy could have played a part. 

In North Africa, neighbours Morocco and Algeria just can’t seem to get along, though a key pipeline agreement appears to have been spared, for now. Ed tells all. 

And Mark opens up another cold, frothy can of Cambo on his last EVOL episode before slinging his hook once and for all. But who are Mark’s least favourite oil industry figures? Find out on this week’s pod!*

*He doesn’t actually do that. Sorry.

The future of upstream oil and gas development in the North Sea is no longer clear. 

The policy of maximising economic recovery has now been counterbalanced by the UK Government’s 2050 net zero target. But while renewables account for a rapidly growing slice of the energy mix, oil and gas demand continues to grow, on the back of the post-Covid economic boom.

On September 6, Energy Voice will host Future North Sea 2021, a virtual conference that will help you understand the challenges, and answer the questions raised by this tension between energy provision and climate action.

Bringing together experts from across the sector, Future North Sea 2021 will showcase three sessions focusing on Net-Zero Production, Decommissioning, and M&A, all designed to provide your business with the innovative solutions, strategies and products required to thrive in the North Sea of the future.
