Detailed Description



Theme: “Learning from Delivered European Carbon Capture Projects”





Conclave Context

Several carbon capture projects have recently been delivered and are now operational in Europe. Carbon capture projects are no longer “pipe dreams.” They have become a reality.

To achieve decarbonization ambitions within the tight timelines, especially in hard-to-abate industries like waste-to-energy, pulp and paper, and others, we need to ramp the delivery of successful projects. What will enable acceleration?

What can we learn from the carbon projects commissioned by Twence, Brevik, and Orsted, and what does it mean for the engineering approach for new projects? How can the lessons learned be applied to the North American markets?We are looking forward to a powerful discussion with:

• Mr. Jonah Margulis, Head of Commercial North America, SLB Capturi



Conclave Format

Our conclaves are intense discussions between speakers and attendees, with the goal of having 80% of the attendees contribute. That is a challenging goal, however, when it happens — it is absolute magic!

At the Houston Strategy Forum, we facilitate a closed door, no press, Chatham House Rules, safe zone for candid discussions. Real discussions — no fluff. It is a vigorous format unlike anything else.

Why Attend?

Engage with leaders in a thought-provoking, intense discussion on the questions facing the energy projects. Let’s have the hard discussion and get all the issues on the table. Register now.

Our Unique Format

What Makes Us Different?





Houston Strategy Forum events are innovative. No speeches. No PowerPoint presentations. They are open and down-to-earth discussions with our speakers. Our format is a relaxed, intimate, fireside-style chat. And, always unscripted!



Over the years, we have had top CEOs and executives share their deepest thoughts and feelings that you would never hear in a regular conference. We respect and value that interaction greatly — it is what makes us the preeminent discussion forum.



Our business talk show format facilitates an energetic, meaningful, and respectful exchange of ideas between our speakers and attendees. Our goal is to get a majority of the attendees to contribute to the discussion. When that happens — it creates magic!



We receive rave reviews about our format both from our speakers and attendees.

To encourage an open and candid discussion we follow Chatham House rules.
