Aleksandrs Popovics, Senior Petroleum Economist at Wood Mackenzie considers that “much of the Black Sea basin remains less explored than other strategic areas in Europe. Most exploration to date has focused on the shallow water areas but the 2012 Domino field discovery in Romania proved potential of the deep water. There are a number of factors that impede upstream development of the Black Sea, most notably taxation and political instability, challenging monetisation options and a small service sector”.
This is the leading annual event for the Black Sea states (Bulgaria, Georgia, Romania, Russia, Turkey, Ukraine). The programme will feature a two-day conference which includes presentations, three roundtable discussions with operators, a technical day and an extraordinary Gala Dinner, plus the opportunity to organise face to face meetings with all attendees of the event.
