The Technical Conference will dive deep into the complex technical issues that face the energy industry today with critical, industry-leading knowledge from top executives and industry influencers.Although the gathering has traditionally been a focus of the oil and gas industry in Canada, and specifically Calgary, this year’s proceedings are being expanded to include emerging energy sources such as hydrogen, wind, solar, petrochemicals and carbon capture..Confirmed speakers include Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, Energy Minister Brian Jean, Environment Minister Rebecca Schulz as well as Saskatchewan Energy Minister Jim Reiter. Ekperikpe Ekpo, OPEC member Nigeria’s Minister of State Petroleum Resources will also be speaking.“No single source of energy can meet increasing global energy demand, and the Global Energy Show Canada is where Canadians can meet the world over three-days, all under one roof, and demonstrate their vision and leadership to meet global challenges with real-world solutions,” said Nick Samain, senior VP for DMG Events, which is hosting the show.The Western Standard will be in attendance providing live coverage.
