PLENARIES


Plenary sessions will be the main attractions of the 19th World Petroleum Congress. Seven crucial topics will be discussed by an outstanding line-up of oil and gas experts from national and international companies, government bodies and other institutions. These sessions will take place every morning of the 4 day Congress. In some cases, these will be the starting points for latter, in-depth discussions in other technical meetings.
