    November 10, 2021

    In recent years, the concept of the “social license to operate” has gained increasing traction. This is usually defined as the level of acceptance of a project among communities, stakeholders, and the public. The costs of public and stakeholder opposition can be considerable, and projects will not be profitable or sustainable over the long term without this social license. The term has also been used more broadly to determine the level of public and stakeholder trust that a company possesses overall—and once lost, that trust can be extremely difficult to regain.

    In this session learn more about the social license to operate and why DEI and ESG are industry imperatives and important to demonstrate to investors, employees, and society.   

    Objectives

    • Recall the 3 elements of a social license to operate: legitimacy, credibility and trust
    • Recognize why ESG and specifically an inclusive culture is imperative for the energy industry
    • Determine how the "S" really plays a role in the license to operate -

    November 10, 2021

    The last few years have been a wild ride for oil and gas prices and upstream operators' activity levels. As we move toward a full reopening of the economy, higher hydrocarbon prices are allowing operators to return to the drill bit while still meeting investor demands for capital constraints and real returns. But increased focus on ESG concerns and climate change is forcing operators to consider more than just dollars and cents when they make an investment decision. In this session, Neil H. Little, Vice President and Reserves Engineer at Netherland, Sewell and Associates, Inc., will discuss the current economics of investing in U.S. basins, and how carbon capture could provide operators with the chance to increase returns by utilizing their reservoir rock a second time.

    Objectives

    • Analyze the economics of different basins across the United States
    • Identify the impacts of hydrocarbon prices, capital and operating expenses, and taxes in calculating break-even economics
    • Recognize the opportunity carbon capture presents operators to generate additional revenues from reservoirs they already own
