LONDON, Jan. 12, 2004, (PRIMEZONE) -- Senior energy executives worldwide now have a new source for industry news and insights on the hottest issues at www.eyeforenergy.com.
The new site, launched this week, covers the entire spectrum of energy-related businesses, including oil & gas exploration/production, transportation, refining, storage/distribution and trading/marketing. Also covered are renewable energy and electric & gas utility generation, transmission and distribution. Major features of the site include:
-- A calendar of upcoming events
-- Breaking news
-- Editorials and features exclusive to EyeforEnergy
-- A comprehensive news archive broken down by area of interest
-- Post-conference access to presentations from previous
EyeforEnergy events
"Each sector of the energy industry is facing its own specific challenges and market dynamics," says Kathryn Hingston, Division Manager of EyeforEnergy. "EyeforEnergy is dedicated to bringing these issues into sharp focus through a combination of site content and industry-led events, all designed to help executives make informed business decisions based on the latest market intelligence."
By covering both the energy and petrochemicals markets through market-driven and industry-researched conferences and editorial coverage, EyeforEnergy is consistently on the leading edge of trends and emerging market strategies. These issues are targeted for news stories, editorials and special features, supported by intensive conferences for those who wish to delve deeper.
Among the issues currently being tracked on the site, visitors will find news of changing market dynamics in the North Sea as majors decommission their offshore wells, minors step in to take their places and suppliers scramble to stay afloat. Market dynamics also are being fundamentally altered in the U.S. refining industry, where some complexes are being expanded to meet new clean-fuel requirements while others are being shuttered.
European utilities, meanwhile, are fighting widespread fraud and bad debt in the wake of the recent economic slowdown. Nordic energy markets, on the other hand, are being fundamentally reshaped by a volatile, illiquid power market, growing transmission problems and the rising prominence of natural gas.
The events feature a carefully balanced mix of presentations by industry thought leaders, plus exhibitions and networking activities that represent an opportunity for industry executives to identify and pursue opportunities and solutions for their companies' unique challenges.
Upcoming 2004 events include:
-- The Future of UKCS E&P, February -- Aberdeen, UK
-- U.S. Petroleum and Refining Outlook -- May, Houston, TX
-- Credit and Collections for European Utilities -- May,
Amsterdam, Netherlands
-- Nordic Energy Markets 2004 -- June, Stockholm, Sweden
The EyeforEnergy web site and conferences are services of London-based First Conferences, a world leader for industry-led conferences on the cutting edge of emerging issues. To learn more, access news content or register for an upcoming event, visit www.eyeforenergy.com.
