We are delighted to host a thought-provoking discussion on "The Southern Gas Corridor in the New Market Realities" with distinguished speaker Gulmira Rzayeva.

The Southern Gas Corridor (SGC) - an ambitious international project estimated at USD $45 billion and one of the most complex gas value chains ever developed in the world - aimed at improving the security and diversity of the EU’s energy supply by bringing natural gas from the Caspian region to Europe and reducing Europe's dependency on Russian gas.

Attendees will hear the latest on:

• Can the Southern Gas Corridor Build New Markets?
• What are the political and economic challenges?
• The role of Turkmenistan
• Outlook of the trans-Caspian transport options

The event will take place at 6pm on Friday, 1st November at ESCP's London Campus. 

The forum will be followed by refreshments. Attendees will have the opportunity to meet the speaker, faculty members, and network with MSc in Energy Management participants and other like-minded people.
