Dr. Abdulaziz Sager, chairman and founder of the Gulf Research Center chaired Task Force 5 working group at the T20 summit on The Future of Pluralism and Global Governance.

The Gulf Research Center is organizing a digital roundtable discussion on September 28, which will address the question “Should GCC national oil companies target net zero emissions by 2050?”

Oil industry leaders Shell and BP have both officially announced their targets to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, including for their “Scope 3 emissions,” i.e. those emissions caused by the use of their products. Should GCC national oil companies follow in their footsteps? While other European companies are moving in that direction, US-based ones are not.

We have invited a diverse panel of experts to give their perspectives on this question, and at the end of the session we will hold a virtual vote to measure the views of the audience.

The discussion, which will be held under the Chatham House Rule, will be moderated by Prof. Giacomo Luciani.

The event will take place from 16:00 Riyadh Time.
