Webcasts
Join us for an exclusive webcast, during which Gulf Energy Information's expert editors will deliver deep insights into President Trump’s policies' impact on global energy markets. This webcast will explore recent shifts in U.S. energy policies and their global repercussions. Key topics include regulatory changes, adjustments in subsidies and taxes, and potential impacts on the oil, gas, and renewable energy sectors worldwide.
We will explore the ramifications of the U.S. emerging as a net energy exporter and its impact on global supply chains, as well as evolving trade relations and geopolitical alliances with major oil players like OPEC, Russia, and China. The webcast will also examine energy security, geopolitical risks, and emerging trends in renewable energy investments.
Additional discussions will focus on technological innovation, energy transition, and the role of AI in adapting to policy changes. Finally, we’ll explore how these developments may influence future energy prices, demand, and the overall market landscape.
Register NowWhile LNG initiatives have garnered more attention than pipeline projects in recent years, it must be remembered that LNG terminal construction drives new pipeline construction, as well.
This is increasingly true in Europe, where new pipelines are being developed to support new entry-points for gas, but it also true in the United States, where new pipelines are needed to supply the liquefaction plants on the other side of the LNG supply chain. As LNG infrastructure and spending continues to develop, so does pipeline construction.
Similarly, thousands of miles of hydrogen pipeline are in development, particularly in Europe, as hydrogen finds a bigger role in the energy mix. This, too, will bring additional opportunities for pipeline construction and related work.
Traditional pipeline construction will also remain relatively strong, particularly in newer gas markets. India in particular has remained robust among global markets in terms of pipeline construction, as it expands gas access to hundreds of millions of people.
During this webcast, Editor-in-Chief of Pipeline & Gas Journal, Michael Reed will dive into the current state and future of pipeline construction globally, as well as the major trends, regulations and initiatives that are shaping the midstream industry.

As global energy demands surge and HVAC transmission capacities increase through reconductoring and other advancements, the integrity of buried metallic pipelines faces significant threats. Induced alternating current (AC) and high direct current (DC) potentials in pipelines—often caused by proximity to high-voltage power lines—pose complex challenges to cathodic protection systems and pipeline coatings. These currents can lead to coating degradation phenomena such as undercutting, shielding, pH changes, and accelerated corrosion, compromising long-term pipeline integrity.
This presentation will address:
- The mechanisms through which AC and high DC potentials interact with pipeline coatings and cathodic protection systems, leading to coating disbondment, accelerated corrosion, and hydrogen embrittlement.
- The detrimental effects of AC-induced corrosion, which can result in rapid localized damage and through-wall failures in as little as six months, and the exacerbating role of modern reconductoring techniques, which double HVAC transmission capacities without the need for new infrastructure or permits.
- The critical need for regulatory and industry collaboration in establishing more comprehensive communication and monitoring practices between HVAC and pipeline operators, particularly in shared rights-of-way corridors. Effective collaboration can mitigate unforeseen risks posed by increased transmission loads that pipeline operators may not have been made aware of.

This webcast will discuss the deployment of piggable dual in-line isolation tools for valve replacement work on a 36” natural gas pipeline in North America. Discover the project benefits which included, increased pipeline safety, reduced greenhouse gas emissions and minimized operational downtime and pipeline outage.
The presentation will introduce the scope of work, including the decision-making factors which led to the use of in-line isolation tools over traditional methods, to provide the necessary isolation requirements for pipeline repair work. Further details will be shared highlighting the pre-deployment planning work and considerations of using an-line isolation tool, including how an isolation tool functions and provides a provable, monitorable isolation.
Finally, the deployment of the in-line isolation tools will be summarized and how they successfully isolated the 36” natural gas pipeline to allow safe replacement of launcher and receiver valves.

Pipeline owners and operators are increasingly leveraging data by moving more workloads to the edge, but with increase edge comes an increased attack surface. Recent headlines are a clear indicator that the bad actor sees the oil and gas sector as a target for sophisticated cyberattacks. Given the increase in digital connectivity, this has elevated the importance of cyber readiness and shines a light on the importance of the safety and security of the assets.
During this panel discussion, experts will discuss strategies for preparing for, responding to and recovering from cyberattacks as a part of any business continuity plan.
- Understanding the risks associated across the expanding oil and gas attack surface
- Evaluating the cybersecurity needs to support modern and legacy SCADA platforms across oil and gas facilities
- Best practice guidance for leaders to support a cybersecurity program that focused on the safety and security of critical assets

Since its inception in 2005, Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) has been an integral part of emission reduction in the oil and gas industry. Over that time, OGI cameras have been the center of the LDAR and EHS markets as the flagship technology for emissions mitigation. Beginning in 2008 with the Alternate Work Practice and most recently as the BSER for NSPS OOOOb and Appendix K of the March 6, 2024, U.S. EPA regulation, OGI technology has proven to be an efficient and effective means of regulatory compliance while also empowering oil and gas operators to increase safety and enhance productivity. The newest in OGI cameras have advanced features that help users meet these stringent regulatory requirements and increase LDAR inspection efficacy. In this webinar, FLIR Global Business Development Manager, Craig O’Neill will discuss how the NSPS OOOOb elevates the use of Optical Gas Imaging for leak detection.
Who Should Attend: Air Quality Professionals, Compliance Officers, Directors of Compliance, EHS Professionals, Environmental Professionals, Fugitive Emissions Professionals, HSE Professionals, LDAR Professionals, Maintenance Managers, OGI Technicians, Operations Managers, Platform Managers, Reliability Professionals

The data center is a crucial part of modern oil and gas operations, and its role is being further redefined by the emergence of edge computing. Edge computing addresses the latency, bandwidth, and processing power limitations of traditional cloud-based systems, by situalling data processing closer to the source - at the "edge" of the network. This transformation is leading to increased efficiency, real-time decision making, and enhanced safety measures in oil and gas operations.
Benefits for Midstream Operations: The integration of virtualization and edge computing enables real-time data analysis and management, which is critical for monitoring pipelines and optimizing logistics.
Challenges and Considerations: Deploying these technologies requires addressing cybersecurity risks, ensuring data integrity, and managing the complexities associated with large-scale industrial systems.
View On DemandPipeline & Gas Journal’s annual survey of pipeline construction activity provides a unique snapshot of project mileage in development or under construction on a global and regional basis, along with insights into key market drivers influencing midstream investment decisions in the new year.
In this webcast, Editor-in-Chief Michael Reed will share key findings from P&GJ’s 2024 Global Pipeline Construction Report, discuss the outlook for midstream, and review some of the key infrastructure projects that are now underway on a region-by-region basis.
In addition, attendees will have an opportunity to participate in this interactive webcast by submitting questions in real time during a live Q&A session.
