On the 18th, IBP held the first meeting of the Organizing Committee of the next Rio Oil & Gas, scheduled to take place in a hybrid format, in which all the face-to-face content will be transmitted online through the event platform. The edition also marks the change of location: the biggest oil and gas event will leave Riocentro towards Pier Mauá, a port region in Rio de Janeiro.

The Committee's meeting, held virtually, marked the final definition of the group, which will consist of 18 executives from different segments of the O&G chain, such as technology, upstream, downstream, natural gas, ESG, among others.

With the motto "Energy for a changing world" - the same as in 2020 -, the edition will feature Carlos Tadeu Fraga, CEO of Prumo, as the chair, and Cristina Pinho, corporate executive director of IBP, as co-chair.
