First impression[edit]

Looks like a press release for a non-notable event; the links to YouTube and Twitter are particularly shameless. If this showed up as an article I'd nominate it for speedy deletion as a non-notable organization and as blatantly promotional. --Orange Mike | Talk 14:42, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of "editing issues" tag[edit]

I have removed the tag because I do not think it is applicable:

  • I am a major editor of this article. I have no connection with the subject, other than the fact that someone who does have a connnection asked me to write up the information as neutrally as possible - they helped find sources, and I found some.
  • Notability: I think it meets notability. No one has taken steps to list this for deletion in the last year, so I assume no one has serious doubts on its notability. If you disagree, take it to articles for deletion
  • Neutrality: I have tried very hard to make this as neutral as possible. If you see something that is not written neutrally (I am not the only contributor, and do not keep an eye on it all the time), remove/edit the non-neutral bits!

2015: “Global Energy Transitions

Information to be added:

The eighth edition of Singapore International Energy Week (SIEW) was held from 26 to 30 October 2015 at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands Singapore. The theme of the event was “Global Energy Transitions”, which reflected how volatility in oil prices, growing energy demand in Asia, and increasing market interconnectivity were reshaping the global energy system.[1]

S. Iswaran, Minister of Trade & Industry (Industry) delivered the SIEW Opening Remarks, where he announced the plan to establish a Secondary Gas Trading Market (SGTM) in Singapore to enhance the country’s trading environment.[2] This was followed by the SIEW Opening Keynote Address, presented by Dr Fatih Birol, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency (IEA), who discussed issues to consider in managing the world’s energy transition.[3]The United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon also penned a special message for SIEW 2015.[4]

The Singapore Energy Summit (SES) featured three high-level dialogue sessions with 28 illustrious energy leaders, who shared their perspectives on the world’s most pressing energy issues. These included Asia’s role in driving a cleaner global energy system, achieving global energy security, and responding to threats/risks. New to SES this year were two special plenaries focusing on the outlook for oil and gas. The first featured a discussion by Charif Souki, Chairman and CEO of Cheniere Energy, and Peter Coleman, Managing Director and CEO of Woodside Energy, who discussed the role of gas in shaping the global energy landscape. The second plenary focused on the impact of oil prices on market dynamics. Speakers included Amos J Hochstein, Special Envoy and Coordinator for International Energy Affairs, Bureau of Energy Resources, U.S. Department of State; Tor Martin Anfinnsen, Senior Vice President for Marketing & Trading, Statoil; and Masakazu Toyoda, Chairman and CEO, The Institute of Energy Economics, Japan (IEEJ).

In conjunction with Singapore’s Golden Jubilee celebrations, SG50, SIEW 2015 presented The Singapore Energy Story exhibition, commissioned by EMA, which showcased the country’s energy journey since independence across four key themes – Accessibility, Reliability, Efficiency, and Future Readiness.[5] SIEW 2015 also hosted the SG50 Jubilee Reception, which commemorated Singapore’s 50 years of independence and energy achievements. The reception was attended by around 550 leaders from the energy industry.

Prominent global energy leaders who spoke at SIEW 2015 included Datuk Seri Panglima Dr. Maximus Johnity Ongkili, Minister of Energy, Green Technology and Water, Malaysia; Hiroshi Ozaki, Chairman, Osaka Gas; and Kyle Peters, Senior Vice President, Operations, The World Bank.
