Following the 28th edition of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change where unprecedented attention and commitments were made to driving down methane emissions, now, more than ever, it is imperative for industry leaders to seize the momentum and translate these commitments into tangible actions that align with the global climate agenda. This session not only offers a retrospective analysis of COP 28's impact, but also provides a forward-looking perspective, paving the way for meaningful dialogue and actionable strategies as we journey toward COP 29 and beyond. Join us to:

• Analyze the key outcomes and agreements impacting the Oil and Gas sector, including the OGDC – what is the significance of such a commitment and where is progress still needed?
• Discuss the role of collaboration and partnerships in driving industry-wide methane reduction initiatives, including opportunities for international and cross-sectoral cooperation and knowledge sharing
• Understand how to translate COP-28 commitments into tangible strategies for your business
• Evaluate sustainable funding models including the role of public-private partnerships, carbon pricing mechanisms, and other financial instruments in driving industry resilience and transition
• Identify proactive measures that can be taken to position the industry as a leader in addressing emerging climate challenges and advancing methane mitigation efforts
