Chris Young

He helps energy companies to develop and execute strategies during times of rapid change and uncertainty, to turn those strategies into concrete choices about corporate and business unit portfolios, to create operating models that align resources and capabilities, and to identify and deliver tangible performance improvements that increase operational efficiency and control costs.

He supports clients on overall strategy and portfolio management, capital allocation, and operating models, applying expertise and comparator insights.

He works closely with operators in upstream, LNG, refining & petrochemicals and network infrastructure to identify and deliver concrete improvements to performance and value, in areas such as operations, maintenance, capital projects and turnarounds, logistics and supply chain, procurement, and technical and administrative support functions.

He has been deeply engaged in helping energy clients understand the impact of the energy transition, showing how they can shift their strategies, portfolios and operating models to reflect the fundamental changes to value chains and business opportunities that the transition is creating. He also advises clients on the continuing role of hydrocarbons in the energy mix, as countries and markets seek to balance decarbonisation, affordability and security of supply.

He works with International Oil Companies, National Oil Companies, and Utilities and Infrastructure Operators.

He leads KPMG’s global gas network.
