Previous Congresses
The World Petroleum Congresses (WPC) was founded in
London in 1933. It is an international, non-political
organization that provides a forum for discussing
world issues facing the oil and gas industry. The
WPC is dedicated to scientific advances in the oil
and gas industries, technology transfer and the use
of world petroleum resources for the mutual benefit
of mankind. Every three years, the World Petroleum
Congresses offer an international oil and gas congress
hosted by one of its member countries. Trends and
outlooks integral to the future success of the industry
are the focus of discussions, forums and presentations.
Delegates explore international business opportunities,
exchange ideas on global issues, network and share
the latest information on technology, business management
and industry developments.
