Description
Despite rapid growth in low-carbon technologies, oil and gas remain central to global energy systems. This session assesses the economic outlook for fossil fuels under transition
pressures, including demand uncertainty, investment cycles, trade dynamics, and diversification strategies in producing countries. It examines natural gas as a transition fuel, asset-stranding risks, and the fiscal and macroeconomic implications of changing hydrocarbon markets.
Guiding questions / Intended takeaway
