2022 Strategic Program

• Developing a Canadian liquefied natural gas industry can help us achieve both economic recovery and a transition to cleaner energy solutions
• Creating trades training, employment and business opportunities for Canadians as liquefaction facilities and natural gas supply lines are built and operated
• An update on the unprecedented agreements are in place between First Nations bands and Canadian LNGA members
• Exploring the next opportunity; the evolution to hydrogen, while supporting jobs and climate action today

• Decarbonization of the Upstream
• Impact of Electrification
• Provincial decarbonization announcements
• Indigenous Partnerships

• What more can be done to develop project relations on a local and regional level?
• How big of a role do EPC companies play in boosting local economies?
• EPC’s roles in reducing GHG emissions intensity
• New cost control measures to ensure budgets and schedules are met?
• Hydrogen: Commercial opportunities using existing natural gas infrastructure

This panel discussion will examine how Canadian LNG export is being, and should be, factored into the country’s commitment to Net Zero by 2050. 

As IMO 2020 accelerates the move away from traditional shipping fuels, the appetite for LNG as an alternative is growing. Canada is leading the way as a hub for LNG bunkering, with operations in the ports of Vancouver and Montreal. This panel discussion will look at:

• Developments in global and local bunkering facilities and LNG powered fleets
• The current regulation surrounding LNG bunkering, and whether it has kept pace with the associated costs and opportunities of transitioning a fleet to LNG
• The alternatives to LNG as a marine fuel post-2020, and why some fleet operators are choosing to pursue these

• Examine our energy mix and the stability of their sources of supply in light of the Russian invasion of Ukraine
• Is there enough investment needed to meet oil and gas demand over the longer-term
• What are the significant implications for energy prices, geopolitical stability, and the pace of the energy transition

• Creating and fostering a culture of innovation

• Clean power and data as foundational enablers of emissions reduction and digital transformation

• An integrated approach to developing real world practical solutions

Led by members of the Canada Gas & LNG Governing Body, this discussion will look back at the three days of the conference and detail the key takeaways and learnings, as well as forecast what we should expect in the year ahead. It will also provide a forum for delegates to say what they have taken from the event, and what they will be looking out for in the coming months.
