Part of a larger Canadian delegation, Minister Savage will participate in the Offshore Northern Seas (ONS) Conference from Aug. 29 to Sept. 1 in Stavanger. The ONS conference will focus on low-carbon solutions and a sustainable energy economy, with government, academic and industry leaders from around the world attending.

While in Norway, the minister will also meet with government officials and energy company representatives, and speak at the Net Zero Market session exploring carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) and other solutions needed to reduce emissions and achieve net zero. Minister Savage will highlight Alberta’s leading vision to invest in CCUS more than a decade ago, the results and the province’s commitment to continue developing and expanding the technology.

Minister Savage will travel from Aug. 27 to Sept. 2 and will be accompanied by her chief of staff and one official from Alberta Energy. Mission expenses will be posted on the travel and expense disclosure page.

A small trade delegation of Alberta oil and gas companies organized by Alberta Jobs, Economy and Innovation will also take part in the conference. The delegation will focus on business-to-business meetings to promote Alberta exports.

Alberta’s government is committed to working with its national and international partners to advance shared interests that can lead to new opportunities for people and businesses in Alberta and around the world.
