Senior advisory and hands-on project execution for natural gas & LNG, CCS, hydrogen, and renewable energy projects. Based in Trinidad, operating globally. From concept through to operations.
The energy transition is moving fast, and the decisions companies make now will define their position for decades. Whether you're developing a first-of-a-kind CCS project, assessing a hydrogen opportunity, or decarbonising an existing gas portfolio, the risks are real and the complexity is high.
Low Carbon Consultants brings the kind of hands-on experience that matters, from commercial structuring and business development to legal governance and full project execution. We've worked on some of the most complex energy transition projects in the world, at bp, Shell, BG Group, Drax and Elimini, and we work at a fraction of the cost of the large consultancies.
You work directly with Jason and Susannah, not junior analysts. Every engagement gets the full weight of our combined 40+ years in the sector.
Most consultancies give you a team of analysts led by a partner you meet twice. We do it differently.
Between us, we've spent 40+ years inside major energy companies actually delivering projects at bp, Shell, BG Group, Drax and Elimini. We know what goes wrong and how to fix it before it becomes a problem.
Commercial strategy. Business development. Legal structuring. Governance and compliance. We cover the full project lifecycle from a commercial and strategic standpoint, so you don't have to hire four different firms.
Jason and Susannah work directly with every client. No juniors running your project while partners focus on the next pitch. You get the experience you're paying for, from day one.
We work across the full spectrum of the energy transition, helping private sector energy companies develop and execute projects that are viable, bankable, and built to last.
