Of all the risks faced by the world’s energy companies, three present a unique
challenge: geopolitics, cyber risk, and artificial intelligence (AI).
Given how much is at stake—in terms of assets, dollars, and
lives—energy companies cannot afford to take their eye off the ball for one
minute. As the sheer unpredictability of geopolitics runs rampant, as the
growing threat of cyber attacks increasingly influences the risk landscape, and
as AI becomes an omnipotent force, there can be no alternative for energy
companies but to embrace these risks head on.
In this report, Daniel Wagner, founder and CEO of Country
Risk Solutions and a widely published author on current affairs and risk
management, explores these critical risks impacting the energy industry and
suggests strategies for managing these risks.
