Oil, petrochemicals & water: Finding a new equilibrium
Oil, petrochemicals & water: Finding a new equilibrium
Water is a vital resource for human life — and for many industrial processes. Water scarcity is a growing global trend, exacerbated by climate change and increasing demand. As major users of water, how can the oil refining and petrochemical sectors improve water management, guarantee supply, and protect the local environment? This Viewpoint explains the current context and outlines strategies to meet the industry’s current and future water challenges.
Planning strategic competences of the future
Different companies from different industries have been linking HR planning with corporate strategy, but how could HR become an enabler of success? While most often, HR planning is focused on workload management and the short term (or at least the medium term, according to the strategic planning horizon), over the next 5 to 10 years many relevant emerging trends could affect the business: technology switch, multi-channel sales, the customer of the future, industry convergence, open innovation.
Output-based regulation
The regulatory environment in Europe is pushing network utilities to face new challenges that will heavily impact their operations. Regulators all over Europe are watching the tariff mechanism introduced in Great Britain, named RIIO, which is based on incentives, with interest. Many have plans to introduce similar outputbased methodologies already under way.

Little’s Italian Utilities Flash Report , is a quarterly publication aimed to highlight the financial and industrial results of the most important Italian listed Utilities’ companies as well as to describe the main events of all the sectors covered by the report (natural gas, electricity, water, and waste).
