Horizons Live: Refineries of the future
Join Wood Mackenzie’s Horizons Live to explore how decarbonisation, renewable and circular technologies could reshape the future of refining.
Refineries could reduce their carbon footprint and dependence on fossil transport fuels by changing how they operate and what they produce. Advanced decarbonisation, renewable and circular technologies offer potential routes forward, but what could these changes mean for refinery owners and investors?
The November edition of Wood Mackenzie’s Horizons examines how refineries could evolve with the energy transition. Join our analysts to explore the opportunities, the investment decisions involved and the implications for the future of refining. You’ll also have the opportunity to put your questions to the speakers in a live Q&A.
In this webinar, you can expect to learn about:
- Refinery transformation: how refineries could adapt their operations and product mix as the energy transition progresses
- Decarbonisation: the potential for advanced technologies to reduce refineries’ carbon footprint
- Renewable and circular technologies: how these approaches could help reduce exposure to fossil transport fuels
- Investment decisions: what refinery owners and investors should consider when assessing these opportunities
