  10. Energy-Economy Cycles • Global oil demand/supply (D/S) is tight • Currencies are strong or weak • Speculators hedge against currencies by buying oil • Tight D/S and speculation drive up the price of oil • High price dampens energy demand • Lower D/S, excess production capacity (short term), weak economy drive oil price down • Global interdependence impacts global markets • Lower oil prices help stabilize the economy • and…

  15. HOW EASY IS IT TO MANAGE DUAL CAREERS IN THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY? Percent Age group 0 20 40 60 80 100 18-24 25-34 35-44 No problems at all 45-54 55+ All 18-24 25-34 Difficult but possible 35-44 45-54 55+ All 18-24 25-34 Very difficult or impossible 35-44 45-54 55+ All From Chadud, N., Tealdi, L., Howe, S., and Sprunt, E., 2007, How companies attract and retain talented engineers whose spouses have careers, in Talent & Technology, v. 1, no. 4, p. 5–10. QAd6422

  16. Dual Career Challenges • Goal: Reverse the trend of decreasing women in energy sciences throughout a full career • Maintaining a science edge in the “part time” years • Separating what we want to do from what we are willing to do • Reverse discrimination • Precedent setting and consistency of policies • Avoiding flexibility dysfunction

  17. Industry, Government, Academe Bridge • Complex global issues pose technological and social challenges requiring an integrated approach • Each sector has different time scales for decision making, and are motivated by different opportunities • Science, policy and commercialization are critical partners for the future • Bridge across the canyons and peaks

  18. Summary: It Takes a Team! Policy Maker! Industry! Student!

  19. Summary Concepts • Fossil fuels are essential for many decades • Price volatility is likely; must enjoy change • Global demographics are evolving • Talent is the fundamental priority Government/industry/academe must work together to bridge across the cycles in order to create a stable environment that attracts and retains the best talent in the world.

  20. A career in the energy industry is exciting, challenging, rewarding and at times terrifying! You cannot find a more meaningful issue on which to work for the coming century than global energy. Period. Get after it! http://www.great-lakes.net/teach/history/macbridge/mac_2.html
