In Part 1 of episode 11 of The Energy Executive 360 Podcast, Kahina Abdeli-Galinier, CEO of Blue Spark Energy, breaks down the strategic case for reinventing well intervention — and why revitalising existing oil & gas wells may become one of the most pragmatic levers in the energy transition.
We explore how pulse power technology works, why scale removal and well productivity optimisation matter more than ever, and why the future of oil & gas may not be about drilling more — but extracting more intelligently from what already exists.
Beyond technology, we also discuss leadership and career development in global energy.Drawing from her 17-year career at SLB, Kahina shares lessons on risk-taking, building businesses from the ground up, operating outside your skillset, and why leadership agility is built through discomfort.
She reflects on early exposure to Nobel Prize–winning physicist Charles Townes, and how principles around curiosity, simplification, and non-linear career paths shaped her approach to innovation.
If you’re serious about understanding how legacy industries evolve from within — this conversation goes deep into both the mindset and the mechanics.
What you'll learn:
⬛ How pulse power technology removes scale and restores well productivity
⬛ Why mature field optimisation may be a key emissions lever
⬛ The economic case for boosting output from existing wells
⬛ Why energy transition timelines require pragmatic solutions
⬛ The leadership traits required to scale innovation
⬛ Why focus determines whether ideas succeed or fail
⬛ The importance of agility in global energy careers
