Wintershall DEA revealed Thursday that it will host its annual press conference “fully online” this year and cancel in-person events.

The move is based on health advice from the national authorities and in line with the company’s duty of care to its stakeholders and its own people, Wintershall DEA outlined. The press conference will be live-streamed on March 18.

“Wintershall DEA is committed to operating in the most responsible way. And that goes not just for our E&P operations, but for communications activity as well,” the company stated.

“As Covid-19 continues to spread we have taken the decision to host our annual press conference fully online, and to cancel the ‘in-person’ events,” Wintershall DEA added.

“We have always believed that face to face communication is important and valued our annual press conference for this reason. But difficult times require responsible decisions,” the company continued.

Wintershall Dea has been Europe’s leading independent gas and oil company since May 2019. The company has established itself successfully, yet the market environment remains turbulent. Global trading conflicts are forcing Europe to reposition itself. The US is thwarting the EU’s energy plans. Fridays for Future makes the question even more urgent as to what role natural gas and crude oil will play in the future.
