    Globalize and Energize in the Exponential Era

    The Oil and Gas Magazine has more printed information in this publication, than most people would come across in a lifetime, just 100 years ago. It’s the information age. It’s the exponential age. The amount of technical information in the market is doubling every two years. This means for technical students, half of what they learn in the first two years will be outdated in their third year of study.

    NTT JAPAN has invented fiber optic cable that pushes 14 trillion bits a second down a single strand of fiber. This translates to nearly 3000 CDs and 210 million phone calls every second.

    Did you know that social media is expanding at such an unprecedented rate that currently Starbucks has more than 23 million Facebook fans! And it won’t be long before 1/12 of the entire world’s population is on facebook! Growth is no longer incremental—it’s at a doubling exponential rate!

    What does exponential growth mean for the oil and gas industry? Does it mean that new energy models will overtake the current oil and gas market? The answer is “yes,” but perhaps not in the way we would fear. While we don’t think that we will run out of oil any time soon, we do believe our future is far more encouraging than that—the evolution of a new energy mix.

    What we have today is the intricate blend of oil and gas technology advancing so rapidly that it is evolving into whole new realms of petroleum solutions. As well, there is a marrying of new energy solutions with traditional oil and gas regimes taking place. We are seeing solar panels providing energy on offshore oil rigs. We are seeing offshore wind turbines powering ships, and the list goes on and on.

    Take, for example, the global energy opportunity that arises with shale gas and oil. Because of the exponential advancement of technology, we are about to witness shale plays around the globe become economical and viable energy solutions in unprecedented ways.

    Shale gas and oil may actually become so readily available that supply and demand will transform into an “abundant” market.

    Ultimately, the energy industry is now a global game, and technology is levelling the playing field. This coupled with new energy solutions, the lowering cost of production, and bringing in new-energy solutions means a very powerful new-energy mix for our future world!

    30 years ago, Tina Olivero looked into the future and saw an opportunity to make a difference for her province and people. That difference came in the form of the oil and gas sector. Six years before there was even a drop of oil brought to the shores of Newfoundland, she founded The Oil and Gas Magazine (THE OGM) from a back room in her home on Signal Hill Road, in St. John’s, Newfoundland. A single mother, no financing, no previous journalism or oil and gas experience, she forged ahead, with a creative vision and one heck of a heaping dose of sheer determination. With her pioneering spirit, Ms. Olivero developed a magazine that would educate, inspire, motivate and entertain oil and gas readers around the world — She prides herself in marketing and promoting our province and resources in unprecedented ways. The OGM is a magazine that focuses on our projects, our people, our opportunities and ultimately becomes the bridge to new energy outcomes and a sustainable new energy world. Now diversifying into the communications realms, a natural progression from the Magazine, The OGM now offers an entirely new division - Oil & Gas Media. Today, The Oil and Gas Magazine is a global phenomenon that operates not only in Newfoundland, but also in Calgary and is read by oil and gas enthusiasts in Norway, Aberdeen, across the US and as far reaching as Abu Dhabi, in the Middle East. Believing that Energy is everyone’s business, Ms. Olivero has combined energy + culture to embrace the worlds commitment to a balance of work and home life as well as fostering a foundation for health and well being. In this era of growth and development business and lifestyle are an eloquent mix, there is no beginning or end. Partnering with over 90 oil and gas exhibitions and conferences around the world, Ms. Olivero's role as a Global Visionary is to embrace communication in a way that fosters oil and gas business and industry growth in new and creative ways.
