The Global Methane Initiative (GMI) strives to help countries achieve methane reductions by capturing and converting its useful energy. Events like COP28 promote this goal by fostering international collaboration to combat climate change. Several GMI Partner Country delegates are attending COP28 where they will share information and resources on behalf of GMI, and forge connections with other international climate leaders.

This summit will tackle the challenge of reducing methane emissions within the context of new energy geopolitics and affordability. In this context, oil and gas operators need to implement best practices to identify, monitor, measure, and eliminate methane emissions, introduce emissions reduction into operational planning, and build a culture of methane mitigation; all while meeting global needs. This summit will gather industry peers to learn skills such as streamlining company-level measurement and reporting of methane emissions data, how to leverage advancements in technology, and to understand what emission technology solutions are right for participants organizations.

The Egypt Energy Show welcomes stakeholders across the energy value chain to explore avenues for growth. The event will address international net-zero agendas, collaboration for sustainable production of oil and gas, and decarbonization. It will also highlight opportunities created by the energy transition. 

The International LNG Forum, hosted in Doha, Qatar from 12-13 November 2023, holds great significance as the global gas market undergoes radical shifts due to the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war and the resulting sanctions on Russian gas exports. These developments have created challenges and opportunities, particularly for the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, which aim to diversify their oil and gas markets and revenue streams. The International LNG Forum will address several key topics to drive discussions and provide insights into the LNG industry. These include the increased global demand for LNG, competition between LNG and clean energy in the future, optimizing extraction techniques, expanding LNG transportation and shipping vessel capacity, building sustainable supply chains, enhancing asset effectiveness and equipment modification, embracing digital transformation, and addressing decarbonization and low-carbon LNG production. The event will also cover important themes related to HSE, LNG storage, cost efficiency, and effectiveness. Over the course of the two event days, delegates will have extensive opportunities to network, discuss the future of the industry, and forge partnerships to advance the LNG industry toward a sustainable and prosperous future.

The International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC) / Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) International Drilling Conference and Exhibition is a forum to learn, network, and showcase. Operator companies, contractor firms, and service companies are brought together to address challenges and deliver improved performance. Speakers will discuss technical content, drilling advancements, and cutting-edge technology and the event will provide the ideal opportunity to network and engage with industry professionals over these pressing topics.

The 2024 Global Methane Forum will convene global thought and industry leaders in Geneva, Switzerland from 18-20 March 2024 to promote replicable methane mitigation successes and mobilize action to continue making progress toward addressing methane. The Forum will be hosted by the Global Methane Initiative and the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) in partnership with the Global Methane Hub and the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC).
