Energy transition world energy demand: make better use of existing hydrocarbon ressources discover new reserves diversify energy sources Climate change, mainly due to greenhouse gas emissions, calls for solutions that develop: energy efficiency renewable energies technologies for CO 2 capture and storage 2
Preparing today the changes of tomorrow Improved exploitation of existing reserves ( recovery rates) and renewal of current reserves Exploitation of non-conventional ressources such as extra-heavy oil (mainly in Venezuela and Canada), deep production and ultra-deep offshore production Maximized use of hydrocarbons produced, with clean and optimized refining processes 3
Preparing today the changes of tomorrow Development of alternative fuels from natural gas, biomass, coal, and hydrogen production vehicule fuel consumption and therefore emissions, and development of new powertrains that use alternative fuels Reduction of greenhouse gases resulting from the use of fossil fuels, in particular through gas capture at industrial facilities and geological storage 4
