PROMOTING DIALOGUE BETWEEN EUROPE AND ITS MAIN SUPPLIERS
28th – 30th January 2019 | Vienna Marriott Hotel, Austria
Alongside our hosts OMV and the largest delegation of Gazprom attendees, the European Gas Conference is dedicated to building relationships and bridging Eastern and Western Europe’s gas markets.
After an outstanding 2018 event as well as an excellent advisory board held in London this Summer, we have prepared our best agenda to date. We will address the key issues of LNG and its global impact, security of supply, pricing and trading, connecting Western and Eastern European markets, and of course, the most pressing issue of all – the future role of gas in the energy transition.
We look forward to welcoming you in Vienna.
