Rebounding confidence in the oil and gas sector is producing some unmissable stories at the 2018 RIU GoodOil conference, which will be held at the Hyatt Regency Perth, 12-13 September.
Oil bulls will be keenly awaiting a presentation from Adrian Cook, managing director of Carnarvon Petroleum (ASX:CVN), which has seen its shares spike to over 60 cents per share off the back of home-town offshore oil discoveries.
Producers are also enjoying improved conditions, with Beach Petroleum (ASX:BPT) recently posting a near doubling of sales revenue which has seen underlying net profit skyrocketing 86% from the previous year to over $300 million.
Jeff Schrull, group executive of exploration and development will be discussing the emerging player’s stunning growth in what it is dubbing a “transformational” year.
RIU GoodOil 2018 will also feature cutting edge analysis form the likes of Michael Eidne, director of research at Perth-based stockbrokers Argonaut and a rare look to the future on Trump, China and electric vehicles from Westpac Institutional Bank director of economics, Justin Smirk.
More than ever we are seeing a turnaround in the local oil and gas scene which offers some really compelling investment opportunities,” Vertical Events managing director Stewart McDonald said.
“RIU GoodOil is a special event that is always well supported by the industry and this year there’s a real mix between explorers, emerging companies and producers.
“As any investor will know, the best way to understand a company is to closely follow its activities and meet face-to-face with management. RIU GoodOil offers a prime opportunity to rub shoulders with industry heavyweights and get a sneak peek at some of the most cutting-edge energy analysis,” he said.
Other companies to feature at this year’s RIU GoodOil include Calima Energy (ASX:CE1), which is preparing to drill its maiden well in Canada’s prolific Montney basin and a closing address from Paul Carroll, the exploration manager for global independent oil producer Murphy Oil Corp (NYSE:MUR).
The event will even feature a discussion on the latest energy-producing technology from low cost, low-emission hydrogen and graphite disruptor, Hazer Group (ASX:HZR).
This year’s RIU GoodOil will include a crowning of the hotly contested John Doran Lifetime Achievement Award, putting the spotlight on some of the industry’s most respected personalities.
Now in its 18th year RIU GoodOil continues its run as the premiere event for Australia’s small and mid-cap oil and gas companies with unparalleled access to the sector’s top movers and shakers.
