From Petrotech to IEW, India reshapes its global energy engagement

India's global energy engagement has undergone a quiet but decisive shift over the past three decades, evolving from a hydrocarbons-centric dialogue anchored by the Petrotech conference to a broader, integrated and transition-ready platform under India Energy Week. The fourth edition of India Energy Week (IEW) will take place from January 27-30, 2026, in Goa, bringing together the global energy community to drive dialogue, collaboration and innovation across the energy value chain. IEW now occupies a "unique position on the global energy calendar," according to Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri. Unlike other international conferences, IEW deliberates on all forms of energy - from fossil fuels to biofuels and hydrogen. The foundations of India's global engagement were laid in the mid-1990s with the launch of biennial Petrotech, which for over two decades (from 1st edition in 1995 to 13th and last in 2019) served as India's principal interface with the global oil and gas industry..
