The Future of Energy11 Dec 2023

Ep 6 | What is the Future of Oil and Gas?

In this episode of Energy Transition Talk, we explore a hot topic – the future of oil and gas! First, Paulina leads a lively conversation with Dwayne Purvis and Michael Edwards, two experts on the Future of Oil and Gas. They discuss the environmental and social impacts of orphan, or abandoned, wells; new technologies being developed in oil drilling and production; how communities that depend on the oil and gas industry might adapt to the energy transition; and advice for young energy professionals who are entering a changing industry.

Jim then chats with Balnur Mindygaliyeva, a PhD student in Petroleum Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines, on how the energy transition is perceived in her home country of Kazakhstan, a major oil & gas producer, and the critical role that petroleum engineering plays in the energy transition.
