Interview: Christophe de Margerie, ceo Total
‘If you stop the production of fossil fuels, you stop the economy’
By Yves de Saint Jacob and Karel Beckman
When it comes to the energy future of our planet, Christophe de Margerie, CEO of Total, has his own “inconvenient truths” to tell. ‘I do not agree with those who say we need to develop a decarbonised world’, he says. ‘You cannot replace oil and gas. If you do that, you will face very rough times ahead’. In a wide-ranging interview with European Energy Review, De Margerie lives up to his reputation as a man who is not afraid to speak his mind. ‘It is OK to be nice’, he says at one point in the interview. ‘But only for the right reasons.’
