The move brings us closer to our clients and research contacts, enabling us to provide Welligence subscribers with unique insights. We plan to continue hiring in the region.” said Welligence CEO, Ross Lubetkin. “As the world’s largest energy-consuming region, Asia will play a pivotal role in the energy transition. Welligence hosts the world’s most detailed upstream greenhouse gas emissions information and forecasts, with product development underway in a soon-to-be-announced emissions reduction platform and LNG coverage.”
