The Berlin Energy Forum will hold its inaugural meeting at 4pm on May 21 in Berlin “The Great European Energy crisis: drones, price caps and shadow fleets.”

(Venue to be announced at https://www.berlinenergyforum.de/)

The distinguished panel of the leading experts in energy will discuss the remake of the world energy business and its impact on Europe’s energy markets.

Sanctions on Russian oil exports and the dramatic fall in direct gas deliveries to Europe have redrawn the energy map. Moreover, the war in Ukraine has led to a direct attack on Russian refining capacity that could affect the oil products market. The West has imposed sanctions on oil that has largely failed to starve the Kremlin of income but it has completely changed where and how oil products are produced and sold.

What impact will this have on European economies? Can sanctions be made to work? Why is the Russian economy still flourishing and how long can that last? Is Russia’s shadow fleet sufficient to remain a major player in the international oil market?
