Examples of our global initiatives
We have actionably engaged with the U.S. government’s Department of Energy to advance carbon capture storage legislation with the Brazilian government. Our Chairman of the Board, Fernando C. Hernandez, is pictured with Brad Crabtree and Adam Wong (top image) in Houston, U.S.
And our South America Chair, Nathália Weber, expanded these discussions in São Paulo, Brazil, with Crabtree (bottom image).
In Pakistan, we expanded our presence in South Asia by signing the nation’s first low-carbon agreement with the World Times International, part of the World Times Institute, which is Pakistan’s premier Civil Services Exam preparation center. This, in turn, positions us to deliver on a “Just Transition.”
This was overseen by our South Asia Chair, Osama Syed Rizvi, and the Board Chairman, Fernando C. Hernandez (top image).
Our Vice Chair, Beena Sharma, met with Scotland's Cabinet Secretary for Wellbeing, Economy, Net Zero, and Energy via Màiri McAlla. This occurred at COP28 in Abu Dhabi, UAE. A hand-picked Scottish government delegation included Beena and companies developing next-generation clean technologies.
Since she was a finalist in the “Decarbonization Challenge” at COP28, the Abu Dhabi National Oilfield Company, Amazon Web Services, and bp acknowledged her carbon capture technique.
Vitally, during all governmental engagements, our focus, as arbitrators of the low-carbon future, is to remain fully non-partisan, in order to strengthen the communities in which we operate.

Our Energy Basket approach
As the energy transition unfolds, the Energy Basket is an energy transition tool which we embrace as it brings together the world of energies, and bypasses divisive rhetoric that can pit one form of energy against another. Our message, when it comes to this tool and low carbon: all forms of energy are beneficial when used responsibly. This term was coined by the Society for Low Carbon Technologies’ leadership, as featured in the Journal of Petroleum Technology.
Our commitment to the Energy Basket compels us to advocate for the following disciplines:
