3 2018: WHAT S THE BUZZ? 2018 will address the challenges faced by the oil and gas markets in a period of continuing uncertainty in the relationship between OPEC production cuts, US oil production and oil prices. Simultaneously the markets are seeing healthy refining margins, a dramatic rise in Middle East product trade and flows, lower LNG spot and more attractive contract prices. The impact of the 2020 global sulphur cap and new trading partnership models between NOCs, IOCs and international trading companies, whilst low prices have discouraged big new NOC refining investments, will also provide opportunities for debate and discussion at a high level. Despite the turbulence, opportunities still abound and 2018 will address and critique, the new and ongoing strategies for the global oil and gas markets in their path to stability and sustainability. 2018: PLENARY SESSIONS Official Opening & Ministerial Addresses State-of-the-Industry and Keynote Addresses Abu Dhabi Oil Visionaries Panel Global Oil Markets, Politics and Economics Crude Oil Trading, Pricing & Risk Management Upstream Outlook Natural Gas & LNG Petroleum Products Downstream and Refining CONFERENCE CO-CHAIRMEN, EARLY CONFIRMED KEYNOTES & SPEAKERS Mr. Abdulla Salem Al Dhaheri Director, Marketing, Sales & Trading Directorate, ADNOC, Abu Dhabi, UAE Dr. Fereidun Fesharaki Chairman, FGE Mr. Nizar Al Adsani CEO, Kuwait Petroleum Corporation, Kuwait (Keynote) Mr. Alan Haywood CEO, BP Global Energy Trading, UK (Keynote) Mr. Sanjiv Singh Chairman, Indian Oil Corporation Limited, India (Keynote) tbc Mr. Christopher Bake Executive Committee & Head of Origination, Vitol, UK Mr. Dave Ernsberger Global Head of Energy Pricing, S&P Global Platts, UK Mr. Hashem Al Refaei Manager, Marketing Strategy & Performance Unit, MS&T, ADNOC, Abu Dhabi, UAE Mr. Adel K Almoayyed Member of the Board, The Bahrain Petroleum Company B.S.C., Kingdom of Bahrain Mr. John Roper Head of Middle East, Uniper Global Commodities SE, Dubai, UAE Mr. David Fyfe Chief Economist, Gunvor Group, Switzerland Mr. Paul Horsnell Head of Commodities Research, Standard Chartered Bank, UK Dr. Edward L Morse Global Head Commodities, Citi Research, USA Dr. Andrew Walker Vice President Strategy and Communication, Cheniere Marketing Ltd, UK Mr. Kiyoshi Homma Director and General Manager, Overseas Petroleum & Gas Department, Idemitsu Kosan Co., Ltd, Japan Dr. Dawood Nassif Board Director of The Bahrain Petroleum Company (BAPCO) and Advisor to the Minister of Oil, Kingdom of Bahrain Mr. Hari Dattatreya Global Oil Director, Royal Vopak N.V., The Netherlands The interim and final programmes will feature other Ministerial, Keynote and high-level speakers.
