Rystad Energy

I am excited to announce that today I become Executive Chairman of Rystad Energy, and Lars Eirik Nicolaisen becomes Chief Executive Officer. I founded Rystad Energy in 2004 and have led it for 22 years with a passion for this industry, the clients we serve and with pride to now see our fantastic +900 talents across the globe. This step is the continuation we have been planning for, and it arrives at the right moment. This follows the minority growth investment from Marlin Equity Partners that we announced last week, with myself retaining the controlling shares in the company and Rystad Energy employees having still the majority ownership. The new capital funds our next stage of expansion across data, analytics, advisory, and technology and AI. As Executive Chairman I will do more of what I enjoy most. More time with clients and in the market. More time shaping where this company goes next, and where our industry is heading. I will also stay close to thought leadership, which is where many of clients conversations start. Lars Eirik has been my deputy for eight years and a driving force behind our global expansion, our client base and the technology platform we run today. I have watched him lead across every part of it, and I am looking forward to seeing him step in as chief executive officer. Rystad Energy has a very clear vision and the strong leadership our clients and our talents across the globe deserve. I am proud of what we have built together, and grateful to our people and our clients who made it possible. More on the leadership transition: https://lnkd.in/e8HjPV5J #RystadEnergy

On 15 October, Rystad Energy CEO Jarand Rystad and three research heads present Global Energy Scenarios 2026 live, in two sessions: 9:00am and 4:00pm CEST. Two questions anchor the hour. What did two huge shocks in five years change about the energy system? And if net fossil fuel import dependence falls on every pathway to 2050, where does the risk go? Around them: the drivers, pathways and trade-offs shaping energy demand, security, cost and emissions through 2050. Join the session that fits your time zone.

Both energy shocks since 2022 left significant structural effects, and import dependence falls on every pathway to 2050. Neither means the risk is gone. Rystad Energy CEO Jarand Rystad and the Global Energy Scenarios 2026 team set out where it goes. 15 October, 9:00am or 4:00pm CEST. Save your seat.

The 2022 energy crisis ran for over 500 days. The 2026 Iran war took under half that time but removed about 14 million boe/d at its peak, the largest supply disruption in oil market history. Both left significant structural effects, and both proved less damaging than feared. Why the system held, what changed and how far that resilience holds through 2050: Rystad Energy's Global Energy Scenarios 2026 team, led by CEO Jarand Rystad, takes those questions live, with the trade-offs shaping demand, security, cost and emissions. 15 October, 9:00am and 4:00pm CEST. Reserve your place.

The 2026 Iran war took about 14 million boe/d offline at its peak, the largest supply disruption in oil market history. The system absorbed it. On 15 October, Rystad Energy's experts ask what the two shocks changed and what's next. 9:00am or 4:00pm CEST. Register for either session.

Three aviation companies are moving to convert jet engines into 25 to 48 megawatt power turbines for AI data centers this year. Rystad Energy's Gas Turbine Analytics maps where these new entrants sit against established OEM capacity through 2030. See the full competitive picture.
