Welcome to ESF North America
Houston, we have a problem... to solve!
Great aspects of mankind were reflected in the Tom Hanks movie when everyone came together to figure out how to get those astronauts home.
The constant evolution of energy is built into our industry's DNA, and the refining and chemicals industries have been solving challenges for 150+ years. Despite volatile headwinds, like Apollo 13’s space mission, with pragmatism, partnerships, and a balanced approach, the industry must continue to come together and rise to this energy transition challenge whilst providing secure, affordable, and sustainable energy.
Returning to Houston from 20-22 May, ESF North America will bring together industry leaders to support a secure and sustainable energy future in which the refining and chemicals industries continue to play a leading role!

2025 Advisory Meeting Takeaways
Meeting held on the 12th December 2024
Held in December, the discussion included speculation about what the then-upcoming Trump Presidency might mean for the country’s energy, climate, trade policies, and downstream landscape. It will be interesting over the coming weeks and months to see the full outcomes of the new administration and what this period of transition for America means for America’s energy transition.
