This includes sessions from the conference: 2022 AICPA & CIMA Oil & Gas Conference
Edwards will present a narrative of where we have been, where we are now and most importantly where we are heading in the future in the oil, gas and energy industries.
Speaker(s):This session will cover the local, national and global landscape in oil and gas production, and specifically federal lands oil and gas production. Impacts of the Inflation Reduction Act, Department of Interior regulations, and other federal oversight on federal lands production and investment.
Speaker(s):This session will review the impacts and issues that arise in severance and ad valorem tax in a high commodity price environment.
Speaker(s):This session will use oil and gas market trends as a current case study in data analytics. The current market environment has evolved rapidly in recent years thanks to a series of once-in-a-lifetime events including a global pandemic, the war in Ukraine, oil and gas price extreme volatility, a new energy paradigm where the world wants to decarbonize AND provide affordable energy, capital scarcity, rapid inflation and interest rate increases, and ESG mandates from public shareholders. This session will address these macro trends.
Most people will say the global pandemic forced an unprecedented degree of digital transformation. This session proposes we've actually seen massive digital implementation and that digital transformation is still underway. Leaders are still grappling with how to attract, engage and retain talent in a world where employees have so many options.
In this session we will discuss:
This session will explore tax credit incentives available to the energy industry, specifically diving into the Credit for Increasing Research Activities (a.k.a. the "R&D Credit").
Speaker(s):Just like pocket protectors, manually creating Excel schedules and static reporting are reminders of a bygone era. However, starting down the path of digital transformation in your Accounting and Finance organization can be daunting which is compounded by the unique nature of many oil and gas accounting processes. In this session, we will discuss how assess your organization for what specific types of technology and automation are necessary, types of technology that are used across the industry, specific use cases that can return hundreds (if not thousands) of productive hours back to your organization, and strategies to get your teams engaged with the process.
Speaker(s):This keynote will lay out the competitive bell curve of company ESG strategies and disclosures and discuss the implementation of ESG investing across public and private markets.
Speaker(s):Recent major developments in response to the increased demand for information on climate change and other ESG issues include the formation of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) by the IFRS Foundation, and a significant rule proposal by the Securities and Exchange Commission on climate change disclosures.
This panel discussion will explore these emerging requirements with particular focus on the SEC disclosures and implications for the oil & gas sector.
Speaker(s):This session will cover conflict of interest and fraud aspects of a vendor relationship. The presenters will walk through the vendor relationship starting with the procurement process through ongoing vendor compliance, discuss key aspects of a vendor service agreement, and point out potential fraud and conflict of interest issues common to vendor relationships.
