Friday Night Panel:
“Securing the
International Oil Supply”
Please see below
for panel description, speaker biographies, transcripts and PowerPoint
presentations (when available).
In a complex
global oil market, the failure of any link in the supply chain can
cause widespread disruption. Crises within oil exporting nations limit
output and conflicts between importers and exporters can halt the flow
of oil. To preserve the security of the global system and ensure a
stable source of energy for the United States, policymakers must
consider the international ramifications of every action. Panelists
will examine the threats to the international oil supply and suggest
policy options that diffuse those threats.
