James Watt Lecture, in cooperation with Watt Club, the alumni association of Heriot-Watt University, who have a long-held tradition of recognising James Watt’s birthday each year by "supping" together.
Synopsis
The industry is facing tremendous changes, with global outlook of increasing energy demands and shifting energy mix towards cleaner resources, requiring oil and gas players to diversify their portfolio and step out. The industry accelerates investments in technology and innovative solutions not only to meet the changing demands, but also to future proof themselves in facing the disruptions.Over the next few years, PETRONAS will focus on producing new resources in better ways through technological solutions which include efficient hydrocarbon recovery techniques, low carbon technologies, digitalization, unmanned subsea factory, robotic solutions, renewable energies, usage of advanced material and others.PETRONAS is investing substantially in Carbon Capture, Storage and Utilisation technology development. We also believe there is huge potential for natural gas to be partnered/paired with renewable energy in addressing the urgent challenges posed by climate change.Our Facilities of the Future technology leverages on megatrends of digital, automation, robotics, hyper connectivity, AI / ML, where it aims to reduce operations cost by 50% in 2026, targeting at the main cost levers of surface operations, maintenance and logistic. This will change the way we operate our assets (operations philosophy) and our technical and capability requirements.

James Watt Event
This Scottish Oil Club Event is held in partnership with the Watt Club, the alumni association of Heriot-Watt University, who have a long-held tradition of recognising James Watt’s birthday each year by "supping" together. In recognition of Heriot-Watt’s long established association with the Scottish Oil Club, the annual January "James Watt Lecture" be delivered by a leading commentator who will address aspects of the role of oil and gas in the broader energy sector. The role of research and contribution of universities in supporting industry to address global societal challenges will also be discussed. After the presentation there will be the opportunity to network, "sup" together and toast James Watt’s contribution to science and engineering.
