EVENT POSTPONEMENT UPDATE
11 February 2020
Following the recent developments surrounding the coronavirus in Singapore, and in line with the guidance of Singapore’s MOH, we have taken the decision to postpone the Asia Pacific Energy Assembly which was due to take place on the 3-4 March in Singapore. This is not a decision that has been taken lightly, but one that we believe has been made in the best interests of our network and one that puts the health & safety of our partners and stakeholders that will be joining us from around the world first.
As of 7th February, MOH has moved Singapore’s risk assessment from DORSCON Yellow to DORSCON Orange in response to the breakout of the Novel Coronavirus. The health and well-being of our attendees is of utmost importance, Energy Council has therefore taken the decision to postpone the Assembly in order to deliver on its promise to bring senior industry executives and decision makers together and to broker new relations, facilitate investment and encourage business development.
The new dates for the Asia Pacific Energy Assembly are still being finalised, and we hope to be able to provide you with final confirmation by the end of this week. The Assembly will still take place at the Raffles Convention Centre in Singapore. For those who have already booked hotel rooms through the booking link on our website, we are able to amend the reservation to the new dates and can do so on your behalf. Please do let us know if you need any help doing this.
Please feel free to get in touch with Ben West or Lyle Simpson should you have any further questions.
What is the Asia Pacific Energy Assembly?
The Asia Pacific Energy Assembly is the most senior and influential finance & investment meeting for the Asian energy sector. Which is why every year, for the last 8 years, hundreds of C-level executives and decision makers from across the Upstream and Midstream value chains gather in Singapore to discuss industry challenges, find solutions, identify emerging opportunities, raise capital and create deal flow

A Glance at 2019
“The Asia-Pacific Energy Assembly is always a great way to start-off the new year. It continues to be well attended by senior oil & gas executives from across the region. In recent years the addition of sessions on LNG is particularly beneficial given Asia’s pivotal role in driving global demand for cleaner energy.”
“It was a great event, well organized. Big opportunity to meet the industry’s professionals and leaders to exchange ideas and more importantly learn from all industry’s sectors, producers, buyers, innovators, financing institutions as well as law firms. Congratulations Energy Council, for another successful event.”
