Provincial Government Officials to Attend World Petroleum Congress

Minister of Industry, Energy and Technology Andrew Parsons will join officials from the Provincial Government in attending the 24th World Petroleum Congress in Calgary, Alberta, from September 17-21.

The World Petroleum Congress brings together officials and leaders from oil and gas-producing nations every three years to discuss energy matters.

The congress generally attracts more than 10,000 delegates from 100 countries. This year’s theme is “Energy Transition-The Path to Net Zero”.

This is the first time in over 20 years Canada has won a bid to host the World Petroleum Congress.
