What can you make people do and why? Data, technology and oil and gas in the UK.
You are warmly invited to The Centre for Energy and Natural Resources Innovation and Transformation (CENRIT)'s next seminar, where nationally and internationally renowned scholars address major challenges and opportunities pertaining to innovation and transformation in the energy transition.
​
Event: 'What can you make people do and why? Data, technology and oil and gas in the UK', a seminar by Professor Abbe Brown, University of Aberdeen & CENRIT Visiting Professor 2023
​
This seminar explores requirements in the UK oil and gas licensing regime relating to information retention and sharing and to technology adoption and collaboration; the sanctions which can arise if these are not met; the policy goals which led to this being pursued; and issues explored in consultations and apparent responses in the industry, at the time and subsequently through industry bodies and the Oil and Gas Authority/North Sea Transition Authority.
From this base, there will be discussion regarding the balances of the different public goals and private interests which are embedded – directly and indirectly - in this space and on the consequences and possible lessons learned regarding the creation of regimes which aim to deliver specific goals in similar and different regulatory and factual landscapes.
A discussion is invited on analogies and differences between this and Australian regimes for oil and gas and also in relation to water. This forms part of a wider project project that uses four case studies to explore the difficulties which can arise when regimes related to technology and data are not engaged with, or indeed given too much weight, when wider societal goals are trying to be addressed in a manner which involves technology and data.

Tuesday 6 June 2023 at 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm AEDT

Macquarie City Campus L24, 123 Pitt Street Sydney, NSW 2000
