The judging panel was impressed with the caliber of applications this year, but the enthusiasm and passion for the oil and gas industry really shone through in the applications of this year鈥檚 scholarship winners. The scholarship enables these young men and women to attend the conference, providing them with a unique opportunity to learn from and network with some of the industry鈥檚 foremost and respected leaders. We hope that their attendance at the conference will help start them on the path to fulfilling careers in this dynamic and exciting industry."

Not only did it greatly inspire me and broaden my vision and knowledge of the industry, but I also managed to meet great people some of whom are still in touch with me and have always given me very good advice for my career."

Launched in 2013 with the initial support of Christophe de Margerie, then Chairman and CEO of Total, the scholarship looks to support the next generation of leaders and executives in the oil and gas industry. Prior to 2017, it has provided 48 conference places to ambitious graduates.
