Road to Adipec: looking to COP27 and beyond
Tuesday Nov 08, 2022
Tuesday Nov 08, 2022
The arrival of COP27 in Egypt, and COP28 in the UAE next year, marks an opportunity for a fresh look at some of the global energy challenges – and how to tackle them.
Ibrahim Al Zu’ubi, ADNOC’s SVP Sustainability and Climate, settles down with Energy Voice’s Ed Reed to talk over international hopes and how the world can come together to make progress.
The world has moved on since Glasgow’s COP, with the challenges of energy security front and centre – running the risk of pushing out concerns around sustainability and affordability.
As thinking swings back towards oil and gas, though, we must not forget the focus on managing emissions, which will play a crucial role in controlling climate change.

Friday Nov 04, 2022
Friday Nov 04, 2022

Alister is back from his holidays sipping tequila in Mexico to find the UK has a yet another Prime Minister and Energy Minister. The gang dig into the prospects for UK energy policy, fracking bans, COP27, as well as the growing rhetoric around windfall taxes on oil companies.
Damon tells us about UK-listed Baron Oil’s potential riches offshore East Timor after the company reprocessed 3D seismic data from the Chuditch-1 discovery made by Shell in 1998. This has investors excited.
Meanwhile, Ed explores the colourful language used by Capricorn’s restive shareholders as they remain disgruntled by a potential merger deal.

ROAD TO ADIPEC: Matching the energy transition with pragmatism
Friday Oct 28, 2022
Friday Oct 28, 2022
The big dream of the energy transition risks coming unstuck if the needs of people – particularly those without access to reliable power – are ignored.
Proscovia Nabbanja, CEO of the Ugandan National Oil Co. (UNOC), and Manfredi Caltagirone, head of the UN Environment Programme’s Methane Emissions Observatory, come together to talk over the scale of the problem and how to find a new way.
There is a need for a pragmatic energy transition, the two speakers agreed, which can recognise these challenges and come up with how best to drive the change the world needs.
Manfredi noted the impact of climate change that is already being seen, calling for the energy industry to take steps to reduce gas losses.
Proscovia highlighted Lake Albert development, noting the efforts that the operators have taken to cut emissions – and the transformative impact of oil revenues for Uganda.

Friday Oct 28, 2022
Innovation plays a crucial role in reducing emissions, which is increasingly important for oil and gas companies as they seek to secure their long-term future.
Sophie Hildebrand, CTO of ADNOC, and Martha Vazquez, partner and associate director at Boston Consulting Group, join Energy Voice’s Ed Reed to discuss the finer points of innovation, in the service of making the world a better place.
Projects such as Adnoc’s heat recovery work at Ruwais provide a return on investment, which helps shore up the business and environmental angle.
ESG isn’t just a cost, it’s also an opportunity – and innovation can play a part in the process.

Thursday Oct 27, 2022
Thursday Oct 27, 2022
IR35 has been a regular feature in the headlines as of late, with former chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng making a move to overturn the legislation and his replacement Jeremy Hunt opting to keep things the way they are.
To understand the nuance of the legislation, keep contractors and companies safe and see the wider implications this series of U-turns will have on the industry, managing director at Brookson Group, Matthew Fryer, joins Energy Voice reporter Ryan Duff for this most recent EVOL X instalment.

Net Zero Nudge 01: Changing energy consumption
Thursday Oct 27, 2022
Thursday Oct 27, 2022
In the first episode of a new podcast boxset, Energy Voice and EY drill down into what is needed to move the UK’s decarbonisation plans forward. Up first is an examination of how changing our energy consumption may provide in that drive to net zero.
Simon Cox, partner at EY, and Matthew Wright, Matthew Wright, head of strategy and regulation at National Grid ESO, set out their thinking on the scale of the task and how to move ahead.
Consuming energy smarter will provide rewards, but will also go a long way to winning public acceptance. While a hard core may enjoy honing their energy consumption, few are likely to get up at 2 am to turn on their washing machine.

EVOL: Big in Japan, Sasol’s hydrogen option and the tax man turns
Friday Oct 21, 2022
Friday Oct 21, 2022
Japan has big plans to seize advantage of offshore wind, Damon tells us, fresh from Tokyo talks on the topic. There may have been an early misstep, but the weather vane is pointing to a healthy long-term future for the country and its aspirations.
Another country with big plans to change its energy mix is South Africa, where Sasol has lined up projects galore in the green hydrogen and carbon utilisation space. While Care-o-sene may put Ed’s teeth on edge, the sustainable aviation fuel area is gaining increased interest.
One area of perennial interest in the North Sea is the state of the IR35 employment status. As much of the Cabinet’s employment outlook changes, and Liz Truss heads for the door, decisions around contractors and employees continues to be a point of much contention for the oil industry.

The Megawatt Hour 04: The energy revolution will be optimised
Tuesday Oct 18, 2022
Tuesday Oct 18, 2022
In the fourth third episode of our energy storage boxset series, Energy Voice content editor Andrew Dykes is joined by BDO senior audit manager Caroline Ingham and Flexitricity head of commercial Andrew Langlands to discuss aggregators and optimisers.
Aggregators help manage the supply and demand of electricity on the grid by increasing or moderating the consumption of a group of consumers. This helps ensure stability on the grid and helps generate revenue for asset owners. We explore how companies like Flexitricity work, how they can help determine when to discharge and recharge battery storage assets, and what the future of this rapidly evolving segment might look like.
The Megawatt Hour is a special podcast series brought to you by Energy Voice Out Loud in paid partnership with BDO.

Windfall taxes are back, baby! This time it’s green energy in the government’s sights, with proposals to cap generator revenues and sever the link between power and gas prices. Hamish gauges the (less than enthusiastic) reaction from industry.
Andrew reports from the hottest ticket in town, having secured access to this year’s Floating Offshore Wind conference, where the focus was on how to address prices, ports and project pipelines to get turbines in the water.
Finally, Ed takes a look at Nigeria’s production woes and the curious case of a missing 1 million barrels per day…
