BUYERS DELEGATION FROM SAUDI ARABIA VISITS OTC 2018 HOUSTON

May 22, 2018 Welcome

Every year, the Offshore Technical Conference (OTC) is hosted by the city of Houston. The OTC was founded in 1969 and is the largest oil & gas industry event in the world featuring more than 2,300 exhibitors, and attendees representing 100 countries.

This year, the OTC celebrated 50 years.  The Saudi Arabian Buyers Delegation visited the OTC hosted by the US Department of Commerce and the Embassy of the United States.

The US exported about $19 billion to Saudi in 2017, a historic high. The mission of the Saudi Buyers Delegation is to foster commercial dialogue with US companies on mutually beneficial business prospects, to facilitate avenues for collaboration, and enhance existing relations.

IFS’s Sales Director Juan Patino, MENA Business Development Manager Lyubomir Stetsiv, and Al-Rushaid met the Saudi Buyers Delegation to discuss business strategies and joint venture business opportunities. IFS & Al-Rushaid have formed a Saudi joint venture company.
