Chris spent 10 years in the Oil and Gas sector in various international stations in Asia, Middle East, and United States for Schlumberger before leaving to complete a MSc in Renewable Energy. Chris brings a passion for decarbonization and the opportunities in the Energy Transition.

The Energy Transition, particularly on a net-zero pathway, may represent the single biggest economic opportunity in a generation and will be served by a pragmatic, holistic, and inclusive approach – one might say an orderly and just transition.
