The event, which takes place at The Chester Hotel on Wednesday morning, also includes speakers from OGA, Repsol Sinopec and EDP Renewables.

Tristan Chapman, Lloyd’s Register Clean Energy senior vice president, said: “Although political and social agendas are driving us to adopt renewable energy sources, we still face a growing demand for global energy and alternative sources are not yet able to fully supply this demand.

“The challenge is how can the oil and gas industry adapt? How can the balance be struck between oil and gas exploration, production, decarbonisation and renewable energy sources? And what role can the oil and gas industry play in contributing to decarbonisation of the energy system?”
