How Are Your Industry Competitors Navigating the Energy Transition?
June 30, 2021
Sponsored by: AspenTech
With an increased focus on climate change and energy transition, companies are pivoting to more sustainable operations raising questions such as:
• What are the top drivers influencing actions to reduce CO2?
• Which metrics are being used to monitor sustainability?
• Will your CO2 reduction strategy provide a competitive advantage?
• Which technologies are you investing in to address greenhouse gas emissions?
These are just a few of the questions that we asked in an online survey to better understand the strategies and actions industry leaders are taking to meet their sustainability goals. Early results show that half of the companies surveyed believe that investing in sustainability—and the technology that supports it— will provide them with new business opportunities.
Please join Lee Nichols, Editor in Chief of Hydrocarbon Processing, as he hosts a lively discussion with Dr. Robert Socolow, Carbon Mitigation Expert, Princeton University, and Ron Beck, Energy Industry Director, AspenTech. Together, they’ll discuss the research findings and provide their own unique insights.
Flaring Elimination and Emissions Reduction
June 29, 2021
Sponsored by: Aggreko
Flaring and emissions reduction are two areas that are generating a continued strong interest across the industry. Join us as we take a closer look at proven, innovative methods to eliminate flaring and reduce emissions that can be deployed in a matter of weeks.
We address some of the perceived barriers and explore alternative, engineered approaches you can adopt to help you eliminate 100% of methane, reduce NOX emissions by up to 96% and VOC emissions by up to 47%.
This session will cover:
The four main flare gas to power tactics
• Emerging tactics - flare gas to Bitcoin Mining
• Other emissions reduction strategies
• Meeting emissions standards via Selective Catalyst Reduction (SCR)
• Incorporating CHP
A leading global player and safety leader in this market, Aggreko has more than 1 GW of installed power capacity for projects using APG as their fuel - totalling more than 180 customer projects in every corner of the world.

How to make your offshore operations cyber secure and reliable
June 15, 2021
Sponsored by: Siemens Energy
Modern offshore operations are highly complex, generating tens of thousands of data points and transmitting them to onshore control centers across multiple types of networks. Offshore facilities also include technologies from many suppliers that interface with the main process control system, each with their own cybersecurity profile. Mature, proven control systems are often selected but require interfaces to new technologies.
In this heterogeneous environment that combines old and new, understanding what's on the network can be a significant challenge. Similarly, tracking and managing patches, obsolescence, antivirus, and hardening profiles multiplies in complexity. Many IT offerings do not contemplate these environments so the industry is turning to customized OT cybersecurity products.

Agile Subsea Production Systems – Optimize Investment. Maximize Returns.
June 09, 2021
Sponsored by: OneSubsea
Historically, the subsea development workflow was sequential, fragmented, and not adaptive to change. That has made it difficult, time consuming, and expensive to manage the changes that are inevitable in the energy industry. OneSubsea Agile Subsea Production Systems—Agile SPS—enhance subsea performance from appraisal through abandonment to mitigate the dynamic risks associated with subsea production system selection, configuration, delivery, and production. And, regardless of your basin’s status, development phase, or current infrastructure, Agile SPS bring optimized performance through its life of field configurability. Agile SPS adapt to dynamic field conditions for the life of the field incorporating a standard platform that starts with a common core and adapts to your requirements with numerous fit-for-purpose functional modules that address technical challenges without affecting the core performance. Discover how Agile SPS offer you the responsiveness, functionality, and certainty that you need to strengthen your business case and optimize economic viability in your basin.
