Low Carbon Solutions

Events and awards

Let's connect at an upcoming event

2024 Power Play Awards

Each year the Power Play Awards celebrates individuals within the LNG and decarbonization value chain. One category of focus is The Low Carbon Accelerator award, which recognizes women who are making significant contributions by leveraging innovation and collaboration to accelerate society’s path to net zero.

This year, we are honored to recognize the expertise and dedication of Katrien Verlinden, chief executive officer of and country manager for North America for Saipem America. 

Recognizing excellence

Katrien started her career as a mechanical engineer and has since become a leader in the energy industry – working in roles around the world to promote and progress low-carbon solutions.

  • As a Founding Partner of “Reaction,” a global fund and community of leaders, Katrien is instrumental in the group’s mission to improve a billion lives before the end of this decade by scaling innovations that will change the world.
  • In her work at Saipem America, she initiated several decarbonization projects across the USA.
  • Katrien has led Saipem America’s development of a cost-effective method for the large-scale production of blue ammonia and hydrogen, and introduced innovative carbon capture technologies, including their eco-friendly Bluenzyme technology. This technology was selected as Energy Transition Changemaker at COP28 UAE.

Congratulations, Katrien. We look forward to seeing what’s next in your work to help the world advance its energy and emission-reduction goals.
