LNG Workshops

Hard truths. No fluff. In-person only.

For nearly two decades, I’ve delivered LNG workshops to professionals who’d rather understand the beast than just nod along in meetings. What began as an internal awareness-building mission evolved into a central pillar of my independent work.

These are not webinars. They’re not e-learning modules. They’re live, face-to-face deep-dives into one of the most complex and misrepresented sectors of global energy – and I only offer them in person, because your attention is part of the price.

I offer three core workshops:

The Essentials of LNG

A peek under the hood of the LNG machine.
This is your no-frills introduction to the world of LNG – its infrastructure, its contracts, its market mechanics, and its quirky geopolitics. Ideal for the uninitiated, the confused, or those suffering from post-acronym disorientation. Think of it as LNG 101 – with claws.

The Money and the Law of LNG

Where contracts go to get dissected.
We tear into the LNG Supply Agreement, Terminal Use Agreement, Time Charters, and the whole paper menagerie of this industry. Pricing formulas get unraveled, torts get poked with a stick, and we discuss how legal theory meets commercial trench warfare. Built for legal professionals, business developers, and anyone who finds themselves across the negotiation table wondering if they’re holding the right knife.

LNG Projects

Build it, fight for it, survive it.
A blunt breakdown of LNG project development – from planning and milestones to budget juggling and corporate resistance management. We’ll cover stakeholder sabotage, international political interference, and how to keep momentum when the entire system seems allergic to change. This one’s for the iconoclasts who prefer to torch the box instead of thinking inside it.

Each of these legacy programs is available in two formats:

  • 2-day intensive (think firehose to the face)

  • 5-day immersive (deep breath, deeper dive)

Languages: English, German (native), and French. You choose your poison.

On-demand short formats

I occasionally offer 1-day workshops (4–6 hours) on niche topics such as:

  • Shale gas

  • LNG as a fuel

  • Innovation in energy

  • Doing business in Africa

These shorter sessions are available only in Central and Northwestern Europe. No exceptions.

No Zoom. No Teams. No apologies.

I do not offer online workshops. If you’re looking for e-learning, go find it – there’s plenty out there. My value lies in being physically present, fielding questions in real time, and helping teams actually understand what they’re dealing with. These topics are complex, high-stakes, and expensive. I want you fully present—and slightly uncomfortable—in the room. That’s how the knowledge sticks.

Keynotes & Public Speaking

I do take the stage now and then—board retreats, executive strategy sessions, closed-door industry summits. But only if the brief is clear, the audience serious, and the outcome worth more than applause.

If you’re after a scripted energy-transition pep talk to pair with a salmon canapé and some LinkedIn selfies, there are others who do that. Plenty of them. I don’t.

But if you want someone who’ll challenge your leadership team, dismantle energy myths in real time, and reframe risk in a way that actually moves the needle—then mention it in your workshop inquiry. I won’t show up with TED Talk polish. I’ll show up with perspective, scars, and answers.

And if it doesn’t sound compelling on your end, don’t worry. I probably wasn’t coming anyway.

Payment & Process

  • Pre-payment is mandatory. No exceptions.
    If your accounting department likes to play games or needs six weeks to “process a vendor,” I suggest you look elsewhere. I don’t chase invoices—I deliver value.

  • Brochures are available only upon request – and only if your inquiry piques my interest. I don’t do mass distribution. If you’re serious, ask.

Legal Note

Messages sent through this website are non-binding inquiries only. They do not create any contractual obligation – on either side. If we move forward, we’ll negotiate a separate agreement with clearly defined terms.

Ready to talk?
Reach out via the contact form. If I see potential, I’ll get back to you.

Otherwise, there are plenty of fluffy LNG seminars out there.
This isn’t one of them.
