Leading Companies Gather for GDS International's 2012 NG Oil & Gas Summit in St Petersburg

Wed, 02 May 2012 16:46:00 +0000

Leading Companies Gather for GDS International's 2012 NG Oil & Gas Summit in St Petersburg

PR Newswire

St Petersburg, May 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

On 3^rd - 5^th July 2012, a selection of the nation's most influential oil and gas companies will congregate at the Park Inn Pribaltiyskaya Hotel, St Petersburg, Russia, to attend one of the most well respected events in the industry - the Next Generation Oil & Gas Russia and CIS (NG O&G) Summit.

Global interest surrounding untapped oil in the Arctic Circle is heating up as the United States, Canada and Russia all begin to compete to exploit the reserves nestled within. With one third of Russia located in the Arctic Circle, regional oil and gas companies are well positioned to benefit from this find. The 2012 NG O&G summit has been specifically designed to cover the most pressing issues faced by executives in the Russian oil and gas sector today.

GDS International summits provide the forward-thinking executives with a client-focused platform from which to assess emerging trends and strategies that are proving critical to organisational effectiveness in 2012. The summit's programme combines high-level roundtable discussions with next generation technology solutions that have been carefully selected to address core challenges faced by decision makers in the sector. Exploration in the Arctic Circle, the Sakhalin Project, the Yamal region, and Siberian exploration and production are but a few of the hot topics to be discussed at the forthcoming event.

According to Ben Williams, Summit Director for the event, "Leading decision makers from Shell, BP, Lukoil, Rosneft, and Gazprom are attending to outline strategies and solutions to solve immediate challenges when approaching harsh, icy and relatively unknown productive environments. More than 60 of the attendees arriving at the Park Inn Hotel in St Petersburg will be top-level executives from operators and they will be keen to discuss operations in the Arctic Circle and the Yamal. They will also be looking to see how they can strengthen HSE (health, safety and environmental) practices in the region and how innovative technology can help improve company operations."

Executives will be given the opportunity to network and participate in a variety of comprehensive workshops and peer-led panel discussions that cover key industry issues. In attendance will be a selection of the industry's most prominent thought-leaders who will be contributing to the direction of the summit through a series of focused panel discussions.

Included within this summit's senior delegation are Ilya Mandrik, VP, Lukoil; Thomas Quigley, VP Yamal Oil Upstream, TNK-BP; Alexander Terentiev, VP Drilling, GazpromNeft; Chris Mawyer, VP HSE & Engineering, BP and Sergey Khafizov, First Deputy Director, GazpromNeft NTC.

Anatoly Kozlov, Deputy Chairman of the Board at Chornomornaftogaz attended last year's event, and was particularly impressed by the structure of the summit. He says: "I attend almost all of the oil and gas conferences, and this summit does stand out among the rest. The format is very different from the traditional format of such events. In my opinion, this is a more efficient approach, as it gives the opportunity for all parties to participate actively and communicate. I think this is the best approach to a summit." In agreement, Mikhail Ivanov, the CEO of Volga Gas says: "A great investment of my time. I have scheduled to continue talks with several potential solution providers. Excellent organisation, an outstanding event!"

The summit has been specifically tailored to prepare the forward-thinking executive for any challenges that the industry's rapidly evolving landscape may present. Drawing on experiences and discussing industry-specific topics, the summit will securely lay the foundations for 2012 and beyond.

The Oil Tanker Market 2012-2022

The Oil Tanker Market 2012-2022

PR Newswire

NEW YORK, May 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:

The Oil Tanker Market 2012-2022

http://www.reportlinker.com/p0790295/The-Oil-Tanker-Market-2012-2022.html#utm_source=prnewswire&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=Oil_and_Gas_energy

Report Details

Global oil trade is very much dependent on oil tankers for the transportation of crude oil as well as refined petroleum products. In the last quarter of 2011 oil demand fell for the first time since 2008/2009. With a stronger outlook for the global economy over the forecast period, visiongain expects oil demand growth will increase. As a result, intercontinental oil trade will rise at a faster rate and the oil tanker market will see higher earnings and better returns on investment. Visiongain has determined that the value of the global oil tanker market in 2012 will reach $18.96bn.

The focus of this report is on quantifying investment in the oil tanker market, including new build contracts, repairs, maintenance and scrapping. All new oil tankers are required to have a double hull and in the near future regulators will be enforcing laws on oil tanker fuel efficiency and water ballast systems which will require companies to upgrade and retrofit their tankers.

Energy and Financial Communities Team Up For WellChild at 2012 Energy Dinner

Fri, 27 Apr 2012 15:57:25 +0000

Energy and Financial Communities Team Up For WellChild at 2012 Energy Dinner

PR Newswire

- Annual Event Has Raised 1,355,604 Pounds Sterling Since Its Inception

LONDON, April 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Platts last night transformed the ballroom of London's Park Lane Intercontinental Hotel into ancient Olympia for this year's Energy Dinner, which gathered the who's who of the energy and financial communities. All proceeds from the event, now in its ninth year, go to the aid of WellChild, the U.K.'s national charity for critically ill children.

Lead sponsor Platts and its more than 500 guests raised some 155,604 pounds in support of WellChild, one of patron Prince Harry's six favourite charities. The WellChild Energy Dinner has raised more than 1,355,604 pounds since its inception.

"Each year we're honored to be able to put on a wonderful event that gives back to the community and assists the great work of WellChild and its programs that aid sick children, their families and the nurses who help them," said Jim Simpson, general manager of power at Platts, a leading global energy, petrochemicals and metals information provider and Energy Dinner sponsor since 2004.

Toga-clad greeters welcomed guests from companies such as Gazprom, Statoil, RWE, Chevron, CME Group, the IntercontinentalExchange, Morgan Stanley and Barclays Capital to the ancient Grecian-themed event, which paid homage to the London 2012 Olympic Games.

The evening featured both live and silent auctions, but the winners of the Energy Dinner's "Olympic games" were the many and varied WellChild programs themselves. The evening's donations and raised funds will support a range of WellChild initiatives including research, WellChild Nursing teams and its Helping Hands endeavor, a program that ensures family homes and community buildings are adequately prepared and ready for young people once they leave hospital.

"We at WellChild would like to say a hearty 'thank you' to all those who attended the Energy Dinner, those who organized it and for everyone's generosity. Year after year, the marvellous event raises much needed monies to help us with our critical work of care, support and research for some of the U.K.'s seriously ill children and their families," said Colin Dyer, chief executive, WellChild. "Because of the support of all the people at the Energy Dinner, the lives of many sick children in the U.K. are made considerably better."

The WellChild charity, through its focus on care, support and research, helps sick children and their families throughout the U.K. as they deal with serious illness and complex conditions. It provides teams of WellChild Children's Nurses who work with families to ensure that children with complex care needs are able to leave hospital and return to their home environments. Through its Helping Hands initiative, WellChild enlists the support of volunteers to tackle practical projects and other assistance in the homes of sick children. In addition, the charity has invested more than 20 million pounds in ground-breaking children's health research projects.

In March 2007, Prince Harry became the first royal patron of WellChild and he has shown a personal commitment to helping WellChild improve opportunities for seriously ill children and young people. To learn more about Price Harry's WellChild patronage and the organisation, visit http://www.wellchild.org.uk.

Ukraine Helps Russia Fulfill its Gas Supply Obligations to the EU

Fri, 20 Apr 2012 09:44:00 +0000

Ukraine Helps Russia Fulfill its Gas Supply Obligations to the EU

PR Newswire

KYIV, Ukraine, April 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Upon Gazprom's request Ukraine increased its daily transit capacity of Russian gas to the EU by 17.3 million cubic meters or about 7 percent, reported the Ukrainian state gas pipelines and gas depots operator - Ukrtransgas. The request is associated with temporary repairs at the Russian North Stream gas pipeline. Experts suggest that this is to confirm the importance of Ukrainian gas transport system (GTS) for Russia.

The capacity of Ukrainian gas transporting system amounts to 110 billion cubic meters per annum. Comparatively, the planned capacity of the Russian alternative to Ukrainian GTS - North Stream (NS) pipeline is up to 30 billion cubic meters per year. Up until now, though, NS has been operating at 30 percent capacity being able to transfer 27 million cubic meters per day which amounts to less than 10 billion annually.

Russia launched the North Stream gas pipeline on November 8, 2011 and managed to pump through mere 3 billion cubic meters of gas up in about five months when it closed down the pipeline for the planned two-week repairs and maintenance. Gazprom informed its European partners that the closedown was necessary to tune up the control system, which will unite both branches of the gas pipeline in the future.

Ukrainian GTS remains an important part of the European energy supply system, said Serhiy Diachenko, leading energy expert of the Ukrainian think-tank Razumkov Centre.

Earlier, Gazprom together with the Russian government officials repeatedly claimed that launching alternative gas pipelines to the Ukrainian ones, particularly the North Stream and South Stream, will decrease Russia's dependence on Ukrainian GTS to almost zero.

Until recently, Russia has been transferring up to 80 percent of its gas to the European consumers through Ukraine. In 2011 Ukraine declared its intention to import less Russian gas because of the steep price, which resulted in Russia exploring alternative gas transit opportunities and reducing gas transfer through Ukraine.

As of the end of March 2012, Russia decreased the volume of gas transiting Ukraine by 50 percent, reported Ukrainian national oil and gas giant Naftogaz. This could be the consequence of the subsiding interest of European consumers in the Russian gas, whose demand just in March fell 23 percent, reported Ukrainian officials.

Notes to editors:

The South Stream Gas Pipeline through the Black Sea is the offshore section of the South Stream Project which will increase direct supply of natural gas to Central and South Eastern Europe as it creates a new supply route and provides additional capacities. The project will contribute to European energy security in a safe, reliable, and environmentally responsible way and will help the EU member states meet their CO₂ reduction targets. The South Stream Offshore Gas Pipeline will have a length of approximately 900 kilometres. It will connect the world's largest natural gas reserves in Russia with consumers in the European Union. The South Stream Offshore Gas Pipeline will originate at the Russian Black Sea shore in the area of Anapa, cross the Turkish Exclusive Economic Zone of the Black Sea and land on the Bulgarian coast. Commercial operations are scheduled to start by the end of 2015. When fully operational, the South Stream Offshore Gas Pipeline will consist of four pipeline strings and reach an annual capacity of 63 billion cubic metres.

South Stream Transport AG is an international joint venture established for the planning, construction, and subsequent operation of the offshore gas pipeline through the Black Sea. Russian company OAO Gazprom holds a 50 per cent stake in the joint venture. The Italian company EniS.p.A. acquired a 20 per cent stake.
