Join us for a panel discussion on enhancing U.S. maritime transport capabilities for liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquid petroleum gas (LPG). Insights from government officials, trade unions, shipyards, and industry leaders will highlight the need for support in the U.S. energy export maritime industry. We'll address challenges in shipbuilding capacity and the demand for qualified mariners, emphasizing the importance of a robust U.S. Merchant Marine for both commerce and national security. This panel aims to highlight the benefits of enhancing U.S. energy transport capabilities, reinforcing the Jones Act, and positioning the U.S. as a leader in energy transport. Attendees will gain insights into how this initiative can boost economic growth, enhance national security, and support America's energy dominance. Join us to discuss the future of the U.S. maritime industry and its role in energy resources! This panel has received the full support of all sponsoring professional societies and is expected to be one of the flagship sessions at OTC 2026. We believe INPEX’s leadership and deep expertise in this area would add tremendous value to the discussion and help drive meaningful dialogue on this critical subject.
