Hugh Fraser International is looking forward to an intensive week coming up with Global Underwater Hub’s Subsea Expo 2022, the International Petroleum Technology Conference 2022 and the SPE’s CCUS 2022 Conference all being hosted.

Leading into these events, it was great to take part in Scottish Development International’s virtual roundtable of energy sector GlobalScots last week led by David Rennie, Head of Energy and Low Carbon Transition: the key theme was how SDI will be supporting oil and gas services companies through the energy transition as offshore wind, carbon capture and storage, hydrogen and geothermal opportunities grow alongside petroleum sector projects. Participants included Graeme Chalmers who is leading Motive Offshore’s expansion in the Middle East.

Can we welcome Mohammad Abu Zahra as the new Head of MENA Region for the Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute. The Institute has seen rapid growth in membership and almost 10% of current global CCS capacity is in the Middle East.

For upcoming opportunities in the MENA region, we highly recommend Energy Industries Council’s market update webinar coming up on 15 March led by Regional Director, Ryan McPherson.
