Russian-Western Relations in a Time of UncertaintyFew topics are as important for the future of Europe (and for European gas) than the impending break-up of Ukraine and the re-division of theEuropean continent. These historic events are taking place against the backdrop of revolutionary changes in the way gas is being transportedinto and sold within Europe. How will Europe resolve the tension between security and competitiveness as competing goals of European energypolicy? What are the implications for European geopolitics and economic competitiveness in a low cost energy world?

Asia: Still the Promised Land for New Energy Investment?Asia remains the fastest growing geomarket for energy in absolute terms, despite moderating growth in key emerging countries, includingChina. Significant new investment is required to meet future demand. However, competition is increasing in a number of sectors, includingupstream E&P, liquefied natural gas, refining and product markets, as well as coal and electricity.

How should companies position themselves under these new market and political realities?How fast will key markets like China and India grow in the face of changing domestic affairs?What are the emerging geopolitical risks threatening regional stability?

Securing Energy Infrastructure: Risks and Emerging ResponsesThe energy industry faces a widening range of risks as it expands into more challenging and demanding geographies and as new technologiesdevelop. These increasingly include: social and political instability, direct threats to assets and personnel, disruption of critical operation, cyber-attacks and natural disasters. At the same time, greater integration of assets and infrastructure exposes companies to potential “aggregatedisruptions”.During this dinner we will exchange views on:

What are the greatest threats for energy infrastructure? How have they evolved over time? Are the risks becoming more systemic?How are companies and government responding to the current and emerging trends? What can be done to better assess, measure andmitigate the risks?What are some of the emerging technologies that can be adopted to reduce or mitigate the risks?Are there any regulatory changes that may be needed to provide another layer of protection in addition to what the companies are alreadydoing?

Sustainability in a World of Low Oil PricesIn the generation that has passed since Our Common Future and the Earth Summit, the concept of “sustainability” has become widely used andabused. This dinner will explore how far we have advanced toward sustainability and the path of future progress in a world of lower oil prices.

What are the changing roles for politics, business, and finance in driving sustainability?What game-changing technologies can we reasonably expect to contribute meaningfully toward sustainability?What trade-offs will fast-growing countries with large populations have to make between economic growth and environmental sustainability?Will lower oil prices reduce the political and economic momentum for sustainability?

The Future of Energy Innovation: The Challenge of New TechnologiesThe past decade has witnessed a great bubbling of energy innovation, driven by high prices, public policy decisions, available capital, andincreased tolerance for risk. With these conditions reversing themselves over the past year, large technology organizations and individualentrepreneurs alike are having to recalibrate to a new set of realities and adjust to shifting industry priorities. The tenth anniversary of the IHSCERAWeek Energy Innovation Pioneers program offers a unique opportunity to reflect on this changing world and to begin a discussion on how toensure that innovation continues to prosper in today’s turbulent environment and positions itself strongly for the future.

Who will fill the funding void as energy companies cut back and re-direct investment in early stage technologies?Will we see a shift in where the industry sources critical new technology – energy company technology organizations, private capital, largeindustrials, government laboratories, universities – and what impact will this have on overall industry dynamics?How are entrepreneurs responding to the challenge of scaling new technologies in a more capital-constrained and risk-averse world?

Sustaining Human Capital through the Cycle: Learning from the Past, Building for the FutureThe energy industry faces a challenge in recruiting and retaining human capital as we enter a period of volatility and belt tightening. Withbudgets under pressure, how will forward-thinking companies attract top talent and develop the next generation of industry leaders? What isthe nexus between companies, universities and governments in fostering skills and expertise needed for the industry’s long term growth? What lessons has the industry learned from past downturns? Is there anything different this time?

Downstream Strategies in a Low Price EnvironmentA lower oil price environment was driven by an excess of supply and a slowing pace of demand growth. But oil demand did not decline andgrowth could increase. Will low pump prices and economic growth drive demand upward? Will lower feedstock costs coupled with demandgrowth translate into strong margins for refiners? These questions loom as some governments take advantage of lower crude oil prices byremoving subsidies and price controls and opening up the market to more competitors. Changing conditions could lead to more opportunitiesin refining and downstream markets.

Russian Oil After Sanctions and the Price Collapse: Can Mature Field Redevelopment Offset the Planned Expansion

in Sanctioned Plays?Low oil prices impact upstream investment around the world. The Russian oil industry also faces another challenge due to Internationalsanctions that have blocked international partnerships in two prospective areas expected to deliver much of Russia’s “new” barrels in the future– onshore tight oil and Arctic offshore development. Does redevelopment of Russia’s extensive set of mature fields offer an avenue for growthand international partnerships? Some Russian companies have already made this a critical part of their growth strategy, but there are manyissues and hurdles which range from regulatory changes to technology to investment before realizing the potential.

Any New Tricks to Help Old Fields Meet the Challenge of Lower Oil Prices?Over the past decade, declining production or profitability in matures fields was contained or even revitalized through innovations in technologyand operational excellence, or through developing new plays. But that was challenging, even when oil was a $100 per barrel. What can be doneto harness the value of mature fields in a volatile and uncertain oil price environment?• What innovations can the industry find today to help save its mature legacy upstream areas?• How can governments help to stimulate new efforts to arrest decline?• Are there new opportunities to create value even in decommissioning old fields?

Opening Doors to Investment: Mexico’s Bidding Round OneThe opening of Mexico’s upstream industry to foreign companies is historic. It has the potential to transform Mexico’s E&P future. Challengesare complex. The opening is emerging during a challenging time due to lower oil prices. By and large, international E&P companies are notfamiliar with Mexico’s petroleum geology and business culture. Fiscal structures, bidding parameters, data availability, timing of bid rounds,investor interest—including from Mexico’s private sector—create a challenge for Mexico’s rapidly evolving regulatory institutions and capacity. The session will focus on updating participants on the status of the E&P opening.

Future of Upstream CostsHow will upstream capital costs adjust to the uncertainty sparked by a shifting oil market landscape? The viability of some projects is in questionfrom tight oil in North America, deepwater projects in Brazil and West Africa, North Sea developments, and Canadian oil sands. Both operatorsand suppliers are trying secure contracts that are mutually beneficial.

Future of the Canadian Oil SandsCanada has been among the largest sources of new global oil supply for more than a decade. Growth has been propelled by development ofthe oil sands. But even before the oil price collapse questions about market access, development costs, and environmental concerns posedchallenges. These remain and the overall market environment is more uncertain. What does the future hold for the Canadian oil sands?

African E&P: Will Major Discoveries Be Successfully Developed?Exploration success in West and East Africa has been impressive with many major discoveries in new plays. Much of this success occurred inareas with scant, if any, hydrocarbon producing history; little to no infrastructure; and far from large markets. These discoveries are alsodiverse: those in West Africa are primarily oil and hence easier to market; while those in East Africa are split between onshore oil and offshorenatural gas – both of which require considerably more investment, cooperation, and public-private dialogue to enable their successfulcommercialization. This panel focuses on the oil story and will explore the key factors that are needed for its success.

Business Models for International Oil Companies: New Strategic DirectionsPrior to the oil price decline, the larger International Oil Companies (IOCs) were re-evaluating portfolios in order to boost returns on capitalemployed. A dramatically lower price environment served to challenge the value proposition even more fundamentally. Business models areunder question. It is not a given that large IOCs can generate competitive returns from the opportunity set onshore North America. And for thoselarger E&P companies which believe that they can, the question becomes: how much production should a company have onshore North Americabefore there are concerns about a lack of diversification. In every geography the immediate challenge is to exert downward cost pressure onservice sector companies and providers, and enhance recovery from existing fields in order to boost returns from that portfolio of assets. Whatif they cannot? What other business models are available?

Future of Refining in an Interconnected Global MarketRefining is becoming more global with increasing trade of products from major export centers. Refineries in these locations often have anadvantage in feedstock costs, gas supplies or capital and labor that allow them to compete in distant product import markets. In other cases,declining domestic demand has required refiners to export products to remain viable. Successful refiners will be able navigate changes indemand and crude availability to maintain a competitive market position.

North American E&P: Imagining the Next UpcycleThe North American E&P industry has played the a leading role changing the dynamics of the global upstream industry and crude oil markets.North American oil producers are looking forward to the “inevitable” inflection point, but how and when that next cycle will unfold is unclear. Thispanel will discuss what the landscape, pitfalls, and opportunity set will look like for investors in the North American E&P industry.

Capital Markets and the Financing of Upstream Investment in a Low Price EnvironmentThe traditional lag between oil price changes and upstream investment and production has been transformed and dramatically reduced for UStight oil—the principal driver of US production growth. This panel will look at the availability of financing by capital markets, debt or privateequity, and the impact of lower oil prices on the rate of US production, and on the M&A activity expected in the US.

Oil Logistics and Midstream: Capturing New OpportunitiesOver the past two decades, the financial restructuring of the logistics and midstream industries has been as significant as their physical growth.The size and influence of publicly traded limited partnerships have grown steadily. They now hold major positions in midstream logistics.However, change may be in the air. Rapid capacity expansion and greater uncertainty about oil production growth may be altering the industry’seconomic drivers, while financial investors continue to evaluate the sector for opportunities.

Operational Excellence in a Shifting Oil Market EnvironmentOver the past couple decades, the world’s leading energy companies have steadily reduced unplanned operational incidents – as reflected byimproved safety performance – through organizationally pervasive commitments to OE & RM programs. Amid a lower oil price environment,Programs focused on leadership discipline and continuous improvement are even more critical to maximize operating stability and sustainshareholder confidence.

National Oil Company (NOC) Response to a Low Commodity Price Environment: Differentiated Objectives,

Differentiated ActionsNational Oil Companies (NOCs) are a heterogeneous group, differentiated by the unique political, economic and social characteristics of theirhome countries as well as their domestic resource base and domestic energy demand. They also differ in capacity to operate oil and gas E&Poperations, growth strategies, and objectives and demands placed upon them by their shareholder governments. It is understandable, then,that the response by the NOCs to a new, uncertain oil market future will be highly differentiated—for some an opportunity, while for others achallenge to survival.

Middle East: Turmoil or StabilityIn the absence of a regional security framework to contain and reduce violence, what is the outlook for the current political map of the MiddleEast? In troubled states local groups are emerging to fill the vacuum, forcing investors to deal with a new set of stakeholders as part of their riskmitigation efforts. In addition, the Iranian nuclear issue remains highly contentious. How will this volatile mix of factors shape investment in theMiddle East and impact the global oil market?

The New Math for Oil: Global Oil Market OutlookSimple arithmetic served a generation of oil market prognostications: it was the call on OPEC crude oil. The call on OPEC has been replaced by amore complicated calculus—the call on US crude oil. This is one of several big changes in the oil market that have raised new uncertaintiesabout the future. We will discuss the oil price downturn, OPEC’s evolving role in the oil market, trends in US oil production and Chinese oildemand, and other factors that will shape the oil market.

The Future of the ArcticThe relatively low oil price environment will temporarily slow Arctic upstream development. But during this time progress will be made ontechnological advances and the regulatory groundwork needed to prepare for the next round of investment. This panel will explore the changestaking place this year which may alter the Arctic playing field by the time upstream development becomes a focus once again.

License to Operate and Public Backlash: Shaping Public Attitudes Towards Energy DevelopmentPublic perception is an important variable that shapes relations between the oil and gas industry, the general public, government and otherorganizations. Perception of oil and gas activities affects operations today as well future investment possibilities. This is especially apparent inunconventional oil and gas activities and Canadian oil sands. This session will explore the methods ethical and responsible energy companiescan and do use to influence the direction of the public policy debate by influencing public opinion. Who should we be speaking to and what, ifanything, are the boundaries that might limit that conversation?

US Crude Oil Exports: Impact of Shifting Oil Market ConditionsThe 80% increase in US crude oil production since 2008 transformed the issue of US crude oil export policy from a forgotten legacy of the1970s to one of great importance to US energy security and economic growth. Although lower oil prices will slow the pace of supply growth, atleast for a time, the US has significant potential to boost oil production for many years to come. What are the contours of the debate in ashifting oil market landscape?

Can China Rebalance the Global Oil Market?Chinese oil demand growth plays a pivotal role in the oil market. Will lower prices spur greater consumption? Or will economic restructuring andlimited pass through of lower global prices to end-user prices prevent a strong demand rebound? China will continue to be a leader in global oildemand growth, but at what pace will demand grow?

Dealing with Uncertainty: IHS Global ScenariosThe future of the global oil market is at its most uncertain in years. Seismic shifts in the market landscape have brought long-standingassumptions into question. Scenarios are a valuable framework for decision-making and planning—especially during volatile times of greatchange. In this session we will discuss the use of scenarios and provide a snapshot of potential paths for the global oil market.

Outlook for Natural Gas Liquids: Impacts from changes in the oil marketNatural Gas Liquids (NGLs) are produced from both refining and natural gas processing. Lower crude oil prices negatively impact the pace of USoil production activity—which in turn impacts NGL production and exports. This IHS Expert Briefing will explore the impact of changes in US onNGLs markets in the US and abroad.

The Future of Conventional ExplorationConventional oil production still provides the vast majority of global oil supply, even if most of the growth in supply has come fromunconventional “tight” oil development. Does conventional exploration have a major part to play in terms of replacing produced reserves whenin competition with unconventional, improved recovery, and abundant heavy oil? What new conventional resource volumes could be discoveredover the next 30 years?

Petrochemical Feedstocks: A New Refining EpicenterThe oil market environment has complex implications for the global refining and petrochemical industries. Shifting mix of crude supplies offeropportunity while cheaper petchem feedstocks add complexity into the chemical and refining sectors. In Asia and the Middle East, participantsare adding integrated refining and petrochemical complexes with interdependent economics and design synergies creating improvedeconomics. In North America excess natural gas, NGL’s and naphtha are being leveraged locally and sourced and traded by others globally toimprove the operating economics and competitive position of assets in other regions.

The Future of E&P Equipment Markets: Supplier Risk and Strategies for MitigationThis panel will provide an outlook for upstream steel and mid/downstream equipment and facilities. We will examine industry profitability and itsimpact on expectations, dangers, and strategies for mitigation. We will also look at the danger of supplier failure and discuss mitigationstrategies.

Latin America E&P: Execution ChallengesThe Latin America upstream industry has experienced frequent changes in the roles played by government and private companies—bothforeign and domestic. This has not been a linear process, but one characterized with both gradual and abrupt changes. Currently, largeproducing countries have policies which earmark a role for foreign direct investment or are in the process of implementing one. E&P policies inthe region point in the same direction, more or less, for the first time in many years. In this session we will focus on the execution of theseupstream policies, with an emphasis on Brazil and Mexico.

How long will North American Sweet Spots Last?A few companies have pioneered the use of very intensive hydraulic fracturing in shale plays, with interesting results. This panel will review thespreading phenomenon using our North America Performance Evaluator in a dynamic way to integrate feedback and questions from theaudience.

Is a Peak in Global Transport Fuel Demand on the Horizon?This session will discuss how trends in transportation fuel demand, technology, and changing consumer behavior, may lead to a peak anddecline in on road fuel demand. Are we seeing early signals of a potential peak in road fuel demand? Or is demand set to continue rising fordecades?

Future E&P Portfolios and StrategiesThe challenge of cutting 2015 spending in response to lower oil prices is exceeded by the challenge inherent in deciding what the oil price (andvolatility) will be over the next three to five years;. This is a critical factor in determining final investment decisions (FID) for unsanctionedprojects which will come onstream in the 2018 to 2023 period. The aggregate impact of these determinations will shape future portfolios andsignal shifts in strategy. IHS Energy’s Future E&P Portfolios and Strategies Expert Briefing will present value propositions and challenges for fourdifferent E&P peer groups.

Henry Paulson, Former US Secretary of the TreasuryDaniel Yergin (Chair), Vice Chairman, IHS;, CERAWeek Conference Chairman

Conversation with Hank Paulson (US Treasury Secretary 2006-09): “Dealing with China”Hank Paulson has long experience working with China as U.S. Treasury Secretary and in the private sector, both in helping to open up China toprivate enterprise and establishing a framework for economic and environmental cooperation. He has visited the country over a hundred timesand has enjoyed rare access at the highest levels. He brings that knowledge to bear in his new book Dealing with China. This dinner will beone of the first public discussions of the book. In a dialogue with Daniel Yergin, Paulson, now chairman of the Paulson Institute, will talk aboutcritical issues in the relationship between the United States and China and how to manage them. This will also be an opportunity to get hisperspective on both the U.S. and global economy and lessons for the future from the last seven years of economic challenges.

Russian Gas: East or West?Russia’s gas export strategy is pivoting to China and the Pacific Far East, with the “Power of Siberia” pipeline project to China, together withmultiple LNG ventures. Yet for the foreseeable future Europe remains Russia’s primary export market. At a time of increasingly complexinternational relations and fast-moving changes in global gas trade, how will Russia balance the priority of East and West?

Asia Gas & Power Markets: Searching for the Balanced ApproachNortheast and Southeast Asia continues its healthy pace of economic growth, creating challenges for policymakers and opportunities of energyinvestment in the region. Declining indigenous gas production has brought greater urgency to the fuel mix for power generation in several keymarkets. Recently, ‘The Great Deflation’ of crude, and LNG prices seems to present at least a near-term opportunity for policymakers seekingto achieve simultaneous goals of electricity reliability and affordability using imported LNG. This session will address the key questions facingmarkets of Southeast Asia, and look at the ways policymakers are balancing energy policy objectives to reach their goals.

Low Energy Prices: Opportunity or Challenge for the Global LNG Industry?The recent fall in global oil prices are expected to slow the rate of LNG export project development but they may not necessarily be a constraintto the development of the global LNG industry. Low energy prices can stimulate new demand centres and force the industry to innovate inreadiness for the next upturn. This session will explore the challenges facing mega LNG export projects, the potential for innovativedevelopment solutions and the opportunity for development of new LNG markets.

China and India: The Tale of Two Growth MarketsChina and India share many traits—they are the top two most populated countries in the world, with economic growth much higher than theglobal average, and a small but rapidly growing share of natural gas in the primary energy mix. These two markets have become one of thecenters of attention from global gas suppliers. There are also key differences between the two, including the size of unconventional gasresources and other gas supply options. This session will compare and contrast the energy outlooks for the two countries.

Latin America’s Gas Markets at a Global Inflection Point – What’s Ahead?Natural gas is a growing component of Latin America’s energy mix. A significant gas supply potential exists in the region while energy demandneeds continue to grow region-wide at accelerated rates. Policies to develop natural gas markets are already taking place, but the internationalenergy landscape is changing. What’s ahead for Latin America’s natural gas markets?

A New Model for Unconventional Gas?The success story of unconventional gas development in North America is founded on the convergence of several factors: favorable geology,supportive regulatory and fiscal environment, local technological know-how, extensive and competitive service sector, large and ‘liquid’ localgas markets; and perhaps most importantly, small fast-acting E&P operators driven by short term cash flow needs. Perceived wisdom is thatthis North American model must be replicated globally for unconventional gas resources to be successfully exploited. In this session we’llexplore and challenge this assumption with a view to identifying a potential alternative model for unconventional gas development outside NorthAmerica, where NOCs are the predominant players.

The Elephant in the Room: The Marcellus, the Utica and the Natural Gas MarketThe Marcellus has grown from a promising concept to the dominant natural gas producer in North America at around 15 Bcf per day. Now itsneighbor, the Utica, has started down the path to very rapid growth. But the North American natural gas pipeline grid was designed to bring gasto the Northeast, and these plays, sitting on the doorstep of the eastern and Midwestern load centers, are forcing the industry to reconsider thatdesign, and in the process are rewriting the way the gas market works.

The Impact of Oil Prices on North American Unconventional OperationsThe rapid decline in global oil prices has changed the landscape of the North American unconventional oil and gas markets. Operators are nowworking closely with vendors to reduce service pricing and eliminate costs. Many service providers have already responded with significantpricing concessions and requests to their vendors for significant pricing concessions. The implication of a falling oil price has already cascadedthrough the oil and gas value chain and will also impact continued innovation in drilling and completion efficiency. This session will address theactions that operators and service providers are doing to respond to the new market environment.

Gas Monetization in Africa: What Will It Take to Compete?A confluence of factors are setting the stage for a dramatic transformation of Sub- Saharan Africa’s gas sector: massive new sources of supply,surging domestic needs, a call for better environmental stewardship of the energy sector; and competition from rapidly changing globalmarkets. While the underlying driver of this metamorphosis continues to be commerciality, new factors such as social-economic benefits areincreasingly gaining weight. This panel will examine and discuss the key considerations involved in the decisions on developing gas in theregion’s rapidly changing environment.

As a result major players are considering newbusiness models and commercial structure to take advantage of the new LNG landscape. This session will explore the areas of greatestopportunity and present the sources of greatest risk for global and regional LNG players on both the buyer and supplier sides.

Gas Price Reform: Balancing Producer and Consumer NeedsSeveral countries in Latin America, Asia, Middle East and Africa are progressing or seriously contemplating gas price reform programs designedto create higher prices for natural gas and therefore incentivize additional supplies to come online. The process is creating new winners andlosers and requires a careful balancing of consumer, national economy and producer interests. The session will examine how current reformsare being structured to deliver this balance and the future path for change across the regions.

Gas and Coal in a Changing Energy MixCoal and gas-fired generation have been in competition since the combined cycle was introduced to the world in the 1980s. In the USA, coalruled the roost until shale gas took the limelight starting around 2008. In Europe the economics have fallen in favour of coal despitegovernmental moves to raise the cost of coal-fired generation through higher environmental compliance costs. In Asia, dwindling local gasreserves and low coal prices mean that coal is becoming the fuel of choice despite the growth of LNG in the area. In all three regions the fatesof both fuels remain intertwined and companies are evolving both long-term and short-term strategies to cope with the uncertainties of life inthe most competitive part of the generation market.

Financing Gas and LNG Through the CycleThe current environment of low oil prices has introduced new challenges for the financing of gas upstream and midstream projects—while alsopotentially giving rise to new opportunities. The prospect of low oil-linked LNG prices in Asia has already started to cast a shadow overprospective liquefaction projects in North America and globally. Meanwhile capex budgets are being slashed across the industry, and thesovereign financing capability of key gas-producing states is also constrained in some cases. This situation could create new opportunities forfinancial investors able to develop financing structures suitable for this environment—and those willing to take on higher levels of risk.

North American Gas: Demand Side Responses to Low PricesThe Polar Vortex of 2014 drove regional intraday January prices to over $100 /MMBtu only to be followed by a cool summer that had fall regionalprices below $1.00 /MMBtu. North American natural gas producers have been able to drill up supply faster than demand can grow but that setsup an investment cycle that is exacerbated by weather. End users are now considering how and too what extent to manage price volatility. Thissession explores different strategies being considered/pursued by utilities, large energy users, LDC’s, and regulators.

Mega Projects – Is Price Relief Finally On the Way?Mega projects are cherished by the industry for their role as long term cash machines but feared as for their role in diluting the return onaverage capital employed (ROACE). Much of this is due to project cost over runs and frequent delays, with almost 2/3 of the recent projectscoming in over budget. Operators have been looking at new models for partnership with EPC contractors as well as scrutinizing every step forcost savings. Because of their long term nature, most mega projects will go ahead despite the oil price drop so it is imperative we continue tolook for ways to solve the cost and execution problems. This panel will look at the outlook for mega projects, both onshore and offshore, aswell as explore the transfer of lessons and technology among different settings.

Leveraging Operational Excellence to Drive Margin ExpansionEnergy companies face an uphill battle in 2015 given the impact of oil prices on revenue. It is imperative they leverage operational efficiency to asignificant degree in order to preserve margins. This will require strict control of operational performance, and innovative applications of supplychain best practices. What are the key challenges to operational efficiency faced by energy supply chains and how are supply chain leadersresponding?

Will Alternative Fuels and Vehicles Survive Low Oil Prices?Over the past five years alternative fuels and vehicles have started to show up in showrooms and retail stations. This shift away from gasolineand diesel was driven by high fuel prices, environmental concern, and a goal to be more energy secure. This session will explore the impact ofplummeting oil prices on transportation alternatives such electric vehicles, natural gas, and biofuels. Or will oil re-secure itself firmly intransportation?

North American Natural Gas Plenary: Rediscovering GasIn North America in recent years, natural gas has taken a back seat to oil in the minds of investors. With the rapid changes in the market over thelast several months, oil has lost some of its luster. Meanwhile, some companies are looking at natural gas in a new way, rediscovering value inthe gas industry, while others have stayed the course. This session focuses on the ways, new and old, in which industry players are working tocapture value from natural gas.

International Gas Plenary: Building High Value DemandThe global gas industry is re-evaluating its position in the energy value chain in the wake of recent changes in prices of competing fuels, whichpresent both challenges and opportunities for gas. Meanwhile security of gas supply has moved higher on the agenda in some markets. In thecontext of these changing dynamics, consumers are seeking to ensure secure supply on appropriate commercial terms while producers look tomaximize long-term value. This session will focus on producer and consumer perspectives and explore ways for both sides to work together tomaximize value in the gas sector.

Previously he was the Cecil andIda Green Professor of Physics and Engineering Systems at MIT, Director of the MIT Energy Initiative, and Director of the Laboratory for Energyand the Environment. This dinner is a unique opportunity to hear from Dr. Moniz on priorities for energy policy, geopolitics, technology andsecurity; followed by informal discussion.

Fossil Fuel Divestment Movement and the “Carbon Bubble”Climate change advocates are driving a movement encouraging investors to divest their stock holdings in fossil fuel companies, asserting thatcompanies are overvalued given the carbon content of their reserves. The “carbon bubble” movement began as a grassroots effort by NGOsfocused on rallying universities to pressure endowment managers and Boards. It is now gaining attention from political leaders and largerinstitutional investors, including the Bank of England and Norway’s sovereign wealth fund.

How is the divestment movement evolving and how is it impacting universities, endowments and institutional investors?What concerns are being voiced about the sustainability of fossil fuel companies in a carbon-constrained world?How are companies and investors responding? What are the potential long term implications?

Canada’s Energy Future: North American Energy RevolutionCanada has some of the largest endowments in North American, with over one hundred years of gas and the world’s largest oil deposit outsideof OPEC. Canadian supply has been a central part of the Great Revival in North American hydrocarbon production. This dinner will feature adialogue with Canadian Energy Minister Rickford and other leaders on the prospects for Canadian oil and gas supply and exports.

What does the future hold for Canada’s energy production and exports in North America in light of US production growth and the promise of afuture revival in Mexico?Will the North American energy market become more energy integrated or will Canada supply tilt toward offshore markets?What are Canada’s key policy, social and investment challenges to realize its own resource potential?

The “Great Divergence”: What’s Ahead for the Global Economy?The global economy is witnesses multiple divergences. Some economies are seeing robust growth ( the US, UK, and India), while others aregrowing only modestly (the Eurozone and Japan). Still others are contracting, such as Brazil and Russia. Much lower oil prices are helping oilconsumers and hurting oil producers. Moreover, the world’s major central banks are on different paths. Finally, a stronger US dollar and weakercurrencies elsewhere are hurting US exporters and helping the purchasing power of US consumers.

What is the outlook for medium and long term economic growth?What’s ahead for emerging markets?How are investors and businesses positioning in the two speed economy?What are the greatest risks and uncertainties ahead for the US and global economy?

Methane Emissions from Oil and Gas: What Can the Industry Do to Build Public Trust?Methane emissions from oil and gas systems are receiving increasing attention from policymakers and NGOs intent on meeting more stringentclimate change objectives. New initiatives have been announced by the Obama Administration aimed at reducing methane emissions 40percent or more by 2025. States are also considering imposition of stricter regulatory standards. The industry is responding in a variety ofways to engage stakeholders.

How will the regulatory landscape for methane evolve?What could this mean for the future license to operate for the oil and gas industry? What are the strategic implications for companies andinvestors?What are the innovative responses by industry to address growing concerns over methane emissions?

Mexico’s Power Sector EvolutionMexico is moving ahead with plans to liberalize its power sector. Restructuring the industry will involve a greater reliance on markets tocoordinate power demand and supply as well as incorporate environmental objectives. This session brings together the various players todiscuss the vision, progress and challenges ahead to implement this major energy policy initiative.

EPA’s Clean Power Plan Proposal: Industry Perspectives on the Draft CO2 RuleThe US Environmental Protection Agency’s Clean Power Plan (CPP) Proposal, if adopted, would have broad-ranging effects on power generationeconomics, power demand, fuel market dynamics, investments, and power prices. Industry perspectives vary widely with regard to theproposed rule’s legality, and many structural and technical issues. This session will examine the proposal’s most significant legal vulnerabilitiesand the likelihood the rule will be finalized in 2015.

Operational Excellence for UtilitiesWe are mid-way through a multi-decade transformation of operational strategy, elevating the role of operations, and specifically supply chain, toa recognized contributor to margin expansion. Excellence in operations is uniquely positioned to drive value directly to the bottom line, andheadline grabbing declines in commodity prices have put operational teams under even greater pressure to contribute to margin preservationor expansion in 2015.

African Power: Heating Up?Two-thirds of the population in Sub-Saharan Africa lives without access to electricity. However, recent discoveries of enormous natural gas fields in East

Africa provide an opportunity to harness economic development to address the problem of energy poverty for nearly 600 million people. This session will

look at fundamental major issues driving national and regional electrification, as well as the opportunities, obstacles, and future trends for investment in

the region.

Texas Power – Leading Through UncertaintyThe Texas power system continues to evolve its market rules and institutions in response to increasing power demand and renewable powerresource development. Critical challenges are ahead to manage the energy needs of the state’s robust economy as well as manage theimpacts of environmental regulations on power supply.

Tackling Rising Environmental Challenges in China: The Role of Electric PowerAir quality continues to dominate China’s public policy agenda as the population. The energy sector in general and the power sector in particularneed to respond by altering fuel use and technologies as well as developing innovative solutions such as high-voltage DC transmission,renewable power and smart technology applications in production and consumption.

Investments in Power InfrastructureThe accelerating retirement and replacement of power plants, expanding renewable development and greater demands on the grid create anongoing need to deploy billions of dollars of capital each year in the power sector. Yet, the investment climate is getting tougher becausemarket, regulatory and technology uncertainty is increasing and interest rates are headed up from cyclical lows. This session will focus on thefinancial vehicles and strategies needed to finance the future power business.

Renewables in a World of VolatilityThe economic competitiveness of renewable power technologies have changed with the ups and downs of fossil fuel prices. Policy support forrenewables is evolving to keep pace with these changes in energy markets along with the changes on the cost side from continued technologyadvances in renewable and storage technologies. This session will examine what lies ahead for the level, type and location of renewable powerdevelopment globally.

Industry Evolution Continues: How are Policy Pressures Reshaping the US Power Utility Sector?The mix of market forces and regulatory processes continues to evolve in the US power sector. Changes to market rules, regulatoryframeworks, and major environmental policies are happening at the federal, regional, and state levels. This session will examine the drivingforces for change and the potential coordination challenges across jurisdictions and markets.

Future of Baseload GenerationThe pace of change in the base load generation is accelerating due to a variety of environmental regulations, low natural gas prices and theimpact of new renewables on cash flows. This session will explore the role for traditional base load generators in the evolving utility landscapearound the globe.

Europe’s Power Industry: Mapping Moving LandscapesThe tension between liberalization of the power industry and EU directives on the environment are disrupting power business models andreshaping the industry structure.

Coal’s Role in Emerging MarketsThe transformation of coal into electric energy is an essential part of fueling the modernization of the developing world. However, the benefitsof coal driven economic development must be balanced against trade deficit and environmental impacts expected in the years ahead.

Challenges and Opportunities for the Power Grid: Evolution of T&DThe power grid literally holds the demand and supply sides of the power system together. This critical infrastructure continues to adapt to thechanging needs of both the consumer and producer sides of the power business while incorporating new technologies and ensuring cybersecurity. This session will focus on how existing players and new entrants fulfill the shifting demands made on the transmission and distributionnetworks.

Addressing the Missing Money Problem: Recent Developments in Cost Recovery EffortsPower markets across the U.S. and Europe are facing accumulating evidence that market-clearing wholesale power prices are chronically toolow to cover the total cost of power supply. Yet even when stakeholders recognize the problem, a lack of consensus on the underlying rootcauses leads to a lack of consensus on the most effective solutions. As a result, a number of different approaches are being undertaken inpower markets today – only some of which can meaningfully address the problem. In recent years, there has been more frequent use of short-term PPAs; revised capacity rules, term lengths, and demand curves; and new pricing mechanisms. A one-size-fits-all solution to power plantcost recovery does not exist – this session will discuss the dynamics of the problem and some of the proposed solutions.
