Andrew McConville came from an agricultural background, having originally studied at the University of New England, to go on to become the CEO of the Australian Petroleum Production and Exploration (APPEA). As an advocacy organisation APPEA represents the interests of oil and gas producers in Australia. In this interview we chat about the enormous changes that the oil and gas industries have been going through in recent years under pressure to reduce emissions and environmental impact, as well as adhere to net zero carbon emissions targets in the near future. As a spokesperson for the industry Andrew is committed to highlighting the positive changes that can be made by STEM professionals that work within the oil and gas industries and he was more than willing to bring some of his expertise to the show!
