General Session Panel: What is the Right Global Energy Mix? Desired Transition Pathways to an Affordable and Secure Energy Future

Session Chairpersons: Ahmed Hashmi, BP; Gamal Hassan, Baker Hughes

Panelists

Mohammed Al-Qahtani, Executive Director, Aramco

Ali Moshiri, President, Chevron

Pascal Barthellemy, Deputy CEO, IFP

Matthias Bichsel, Director of Projects and Technology, Board of Director, Shell

Phyllis Yoshida, Deputy Assistant Secretary, US Department of Energy

The recent global financial crisis has brought about a significant deterioration in near-term energy demand and a consequential reduction in supply, which has possible long-term implications.Climate change considerations and greater regulation of the energy mix are also on the horizon. The combination of these—one being a mega event and the other a mega trend—has already had significant impact on the oil and gas sector and could also lead to a fundamental transformation in the long-term.

Since oil and gas production declines naturally but energy demand will remain the same, sustaining it to 2050 requires rebuilding the equivalent of today’s oil and gas business over the next 40 years—and doing so from more technically challenging deposits.

At the same time, the world increasingly desires lower carbon energy.A rapid transition to green energy will likely prompt the introduction of more green incentives and increased regulation of fossil fuels. This in turn could lead to an increase in the total cost of energy, since most renewable energy options are inherently more expensive to scale up than energy derived from fossil fuels.

All of this raises a key question: What is the desirable energy mix and transition pathways that will provide the world with affordable, secure, and increasingly lower-carbon energy?
