Join Wood Mackenzie’s experts as we assess the implications of a tenuous ceasefire on the global economy, oil, refining, gas/LNG, fertiliser and energy companies.
Agenda
1. How much damage has been sustained and how quickly could energy flows resume if ceasefire holds?
2. What are the implications for oil, gas and LNG markets if the Strait of Hormuz stays closed?
3. How will regional investment and investor sentiment be affected?
4. What are the options for agriculture in the absence of Gulf fertiliser?
5. Can a global recession be avoided?
