Tomorrow, leading companies from around the globe will share their 2024 financial outlook at the J.P. Morgan Energy, Power, and Renewables Conference. Although Houston is best known as the Oil and Gas capital of the world, the city presents strongly at this broader financial showcase of companies spanning the entire energy value chain, with numerous presentations originating from Houston-based organizations.

Baker Hughes Company, Crestwood Equity Partners, EOG Resources, Excelerate Energy, HESS Corporation, Oceaneering International, and TechnipFMC are just a few of the companies that have officially announced their plans to discuss the future with their investment community at the event.

In advance of the event, Bristow, a leader in offshore helicopter and search-and-rescue services around the world headquartered in Houston, released investor guidance for the coming year and made available the accompanying investor presentation for preview before their speaking spot slated for 4:30 PM ET on Wednesday, June 21, 2023.

Embedded in small print on the information-rich slide entitled, “ESG Highlights,” the company highlights continued efforts to embrace electric vertical take-off and landing vehicle (eVTOL) and electric short take-off and landing vehicle (eSTOL) investment. To date, the company counts seven partnerships in this space – all amassed over the last 18 months.

eVTOL and eSTOL aircraft, touted as more efficient and faster than ground vehicles, could change the landscape for short-distance travel for a variety of industries, ranging from delivery services of both products and personnel to local commuting. (Perhaps the family vehicle depicted in Hanna-Barbera’s futuristic cartoon from the sixties, The Jetsons, isn’t that far off, after all.)

Will any of the stars of this week’s Paris Air Mobility conference, like the newly emerged MagLev Aero, recently acquired Wisk Aero, or very busy Eve Air Mobility, be counted amongst Bristow’s latest partnerships? Tune in tomorrow to the lower-carbon livestream option to find out.

Woodside Energy has officially named Elizabeth Westcott as its new managing director and CEO.

Westcott has served as the company's acting CEO since Meg O'Neill stepped down in December 2025. Woodside is headquartered in Australia with its global operations based in Houston.

Before joining Woodside as executive vice president of Australian Operations in 2023, Westcott served as COO at EnergyAustralia. She has also held leadership roles at ExxonMobil and Adriatic LNG.

At Woodside, she has overseen the $12.5 Scarborough Energy Project, which the company says is expected to be one of the lowest-carbon-intensity sources of LNG, as well as other major projects and initiatives.

“My focus as CEO is on sustainable value creation for Woodside shareholders, operational excellence and disciplined execution of our growth projects," Westcott said in a news release. “I look forward to working closely with the Board and Woodside’s strong leadership team to continue building a leading global energy company that delivers long-term value for shareholders, underpinned by a consistent focus on sustainability and high performance.”

Woodside Chair Richard Goyder added that Westcott was the top choice for the role.

“Liz’s proven track record of outstanding strategic leadership and disciplined delivery distinguished her as the Board’s top candidate for this role," Goyder said. “Liz’s extensive industry experience and strategic vision will be invaluable in leading Woodside at this significant moment in its history.”

Earlier this month, Westcott spoke on how sustainability is a priority for Woodside.

"Put simply, sustainable business is good business ... Because strong sustainability performance is not only the right thing to do. It also drives long-term value by helping to de-risk our business, secure future opportunities and support a compelling value proposition for investors," she said in her 2026 sustainability briefing.

Westcott called attention to the company's Beaumont New Ammonia project. The company acquired the Texas-based clean ammonia project in 204 for $2.35 billion. Production of lower‑carbon ammonia was initially expected sometime this year, but Westcott shared that delivery has been pushed back due to construction delays.
