🚀 Save the date: on 29 November, NRGI will discuss two new reports on national oil companies and the energy transition ahead of #COP28. Hear from experts on key findings, and insights from Ghana and Mexico. Register ➡️ resourcegovernance.org/events/nationa…

National Oil Co's can make or break their countries' approach to energy transition. But very few of them are engaging deeply enough with necessary strategy changes, even while putting big public $$ into new projects. 🧵on our 2 new reports, w/ David Manley Andrea Furnaro.

“National oil companies’ planned investments are estimated to reach some $1.8 trillion in the next ten years.” -Denis Gyeyir NRGI has hosted the 1st press conference of #COP28, framing the climate meeting in terms of the critical role that NOCs have in the energy transition. 1/

"In total, national #oil companies are likely to invest $1.8tn in upstream oil and gas developments and expansions over the next 10 years, according to an analysis by US-based non-profit the Natural Resource Governance Institute" ft.com/content/c85f7d… Thanks Tom Wilson

Tomorrow at #COP28, join NRGI president and CEO Suneeta Kaimal, Tomas Anker Christensen, Jean Lemire and Belize's Felicia Cruz at the The Beyond Oil & Gas Alliance pavilion for a discussion of legal measures for fossil fuel phaseout. Info: resourcegovernance.org/events/communi…

Back in London after my time at the COP of Contradictions. Here are my 3 key takeaways from #COP28 in Dubai. Strength to all those still there!

#COP28 decision signals that fossil fuels have reached a tipping point and the bets that state #Oil companies are now even riskier. $1.2 trillion will not turn a profit if the world aligns with 1.5C. Now is the time to reassess investments #OOTT resourcegovernance.org/publications/r…

"UN Sec-Gen heard massive demand for action on critical energy transition minerals from resource-rich developing countries…Principles are fine but they must be operationalized to have the impact we so desperately need." - Selwin Hart at United Nations's #HLPF 📺 webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1q/k…
