Strategic challenges in global energy –the contribution from the oil and gas business

Embed Size (px)

DESCRIPTION

With changes to the global energy map and new technologies come opportunity and challenges. Challenges which include relentless energy demand growth, even in the face of widespread energy poverty, and meeting that demand reliably and affordably without threatening catastrophic climate change. This reality means that cooperation between industry and policy making will be extremely important in the coming decades.
