Organizations in the energy industry are continually at a high risk for facing crises specific to their operations, including oil spills and power outages. Communications professionals in the industry need to accommodate the increased demand for instant information caused by heightened public and media interest as well as new areas of communication. In addition to maintaining and repairing organizational reputation, companies are currently facing a changing regulatory atmosphere that heightens the importance of being able to work smoothly with government agencies at the time of a crisis.

The marcus evans 3rd Energy Crisis Communications conference will focus on adapting and implementing an effective crisis communications plan in order to enhance, maintain, or rebuild organizations’ bottom line, reputation, and brand.

New for 2012

This year, the Energy Crisis Communications conference has expanded to include more information regarding crises in the utility industry in addition to the oil and gas industry. Also, more time will be dedicated to examining the use of social media crisis communication solutions, as well as working with government agencies and evaluating new regulatory policies.

Industry leaders attending this event will benefit from a dynamic presentation format consisting of workshops, a panel discussion and case studies. Attendees will experience highly interactive conference sessions, 10-15 minutes of Q&A time after each presentation, 4+ hours of networking, and exclusive online access to materials post-event.
