markets. The Summit will also showcase the latest and peer-reviewed research on

The event's high-level strategic conference will provide the Gas, LNG and 
Energy industry a unique opportunity to assess the industry's long-term 
prospects as governments engage with the energy trilemma of energy security of 
supply, affordability and sustainability and assess the prospects for demand 
and investment recovery and changes to supply in a post COVID-19 world.

own time or revisit sessions through the event's on-demand service.

The topics which the Gastech Virtual Summit 2020 will cover include the role of

impact environmental activism will have on the emerging growth opportunities 
for the industry.

Alongside the Gastech Virtual Summit's strategic conference, delegates will be 
able to attend the event's technical conference that will earn attendees 28 
accredited CPD hours. The technical conference sessions will feature certified 
content delivered by industry leaders on recovery, the new post-pandemic energy

for a sustainable and secure long-term energy future. 

The Gastech Virtual Summit 2020 is being held in place of the Gastech 
exhibition and conference, scheduled to take place in Singapore, in September. 
dmg events and the Gastech Governing Body, in consultation with Enterprise 
Singapore and the Singapore Tourism Board collectively took the decision to 
postpone that event, to next year, due to concerns around the global pandemic, 
accessibility and the wellbeing of speakers, delegates, exhibitors and visitors.
