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 CO2 capture and
storage
3
Preparing today the changes of tomorrow Improved exploitation of existing reserves
( recovery rates) and renewal of currentreserves
Exploitation of non-conventionalressources such as extra-heavy oil(mainly in Venezuela and Canada), deepproduction and ultra-deep offshore production
Maximized use of hydrocarbonsproduced, with clean and optimizedrefining processes
4
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 developmentof new powertrains that use alternative fuels
Reduction of greenhouse gases resulting from the use of fossilfuels, in particular through gas capture at industrial facilities and geological storage
