The Oil and Gas Authority (OGA) has launched its own podcast series to bring people together to openly discuss hot topics in industry.

For their first series, five industry leaders get together to talk about the sector’s shared ambition for the future – Vision 2035 – and its contribution to the economy for many decades to come.

Podcast hosts, Chief Executive Andy Samuel and Director of HR and Supply Chain Stuart Payne, strike an open and enjoyable conversation with three guests from the Future Industry Leaders Programme (FILP):

- Victoria Cameron, Business Coordination Manager at CATS Management Limited

- Niall Rowantree, Strategy and Analytics Leader at Total

- Jenny Stanning, External Affairs Manager at Oil & Gas UK

FILP, is a Scottish Enterprise initiative, which engages regularly with the OGA and whose current members set us the goal to find different ways to connect and communicate with industry on Vision 2035, so OGA listened and agreed to develop a podcast series.

“At the OGA, we’re passionate about investing in the future. We believe that harnessing the insights and experiences of upcoming leaders is key to being an engaging and listening regulator supporting a rapidly changing industry,” explained Dr Andy Samuel.

“What better way to start, than to discuss Vision 2035, which offers a blueprint for maximising value from the UK’s oil and gas resources and potentially doubling the UK supply chain’s share of global exports.” he added.

The Vision 2035 series consists of four short audio episodes which delve into the leaders’ thoughts on how achievable the ambition is, the leadership required, and what it means to each of them.

The first episode is out, Wednesday, 23 January, with the remaining three being released over the next three weeks.

The OGA is inviting feedback on this series, including any ideas for future podcasts and if you would like to become a guest, please let them know.
