The annual fifth 'Pakistan Oil & Gas Forum 2013' organised by Shamrock Conferences International will be held on May 30, at a hotel in Islamabad. The theme is "Exploring and Sustaining Energy Needs - Charting Pakistan's Road to Economic Development."
The forum attracts a cross-section of professionals and practitioners from the oil and gas sector of Pakistan, including key personnel from the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Resources and its allied organisations and departments. This year's forum will primarily focus on the implementation of the oil and gas policy and to find practical solutions to the challenges of energy requirements in the country.
"The academic nature of the forum enables eminent members of the oil and gas industry, both past and present, to cohesively highlight and discuss crucial points that enhance the understanding of the issues and opportunities in the industry," said Menin Rodrigues, convener and chairman of the Forum.
It comprises two critical sessions and an interactive panel discussion. The first session will be on 'Oil & Gas Policy - Balancing the Investment, Demand and Supply Equation' which is expected to be chaired by the secretary Petroleum and featuring three prominent speakers. The second session "Diversifying the Energy Mix - A Road Map towards Sustainable Energy Solutions" will be focusing on the game-changing opportunities that can make a difference in our current and future energy needs of the country.
The panel discussion on determining the energy model for Pakistan will be led by two eminent and former secretaries of petroleum Dr Gulfaraz Ahmed and Abdullah Yusuf respectively, and will include panelists representing the upstream, downstream and renewal energy businesses, including coal as a conventional and traditional source.-PR
