Big oil companies to discuss – pressing issues affecting executives in the Russian oil and gas sector.

Coming July and big names in the oil and gas sector in Russia will all congregate at the Park Inn Pribaltiyskaya Hotel, St Petersburg to be part of the the Next Generation Oil & Gas Russia and CIS (NG O&G) Summit. The summit gathers importance as the US, Canada and Russia begin to compete to exploit the untapped Arctic Circle oil reserves and also because one third of Russia is located in the Arctic Circle.

The Summit Programmes:

• High-level round-table discussions with next generation technology solutions that have been carefully selected to address core challenges faced by decision makers in the sector.
• Exploration in the Arctic Circle, the Sakhalin Project, the Yamal region, and Siberian exploration and production are, but a few of the hot topics to be discussed at the forthcoming event.

Ben Williams, the GDS International Summit Director for the event, explains,

“Leading decision makers from Shell, BP, Lukoil, Rosneft, and Gazprom are attending to outline strategies and solutions to solve immediate challenges when approaching harsh, icy and relatively unknown productive environments. More than 60 of the attendees arriving at the Park Inn Hotel in St Petersburg will be top-level executives from operators, and they will be keen to discuss operations in the Arctic Circle and the Yamal. They will also be looking to see how they can strengthen HSE (health, safety and environmental) practices in the region and how innovative technology can help improve company operations”.

Executives will be given the opportunity to:

• Network and participate in a variety of comprehensive workshops and peer-led panel discussions that cover key industry issues.
• In attendance will be a selection of the industry’s most prominent thought-leaders who will be contributing to the direction of the summit through a series of focused panel discussions.
