US-based Rapdian Group President Robert McNally attended the working dinner held in collaboration with Sabancı University Istanbul International Energy and Climate Center (IICEC) and DEIK Energy Business Council. McNally, who was also a US White House energy advisor at the G.Bush era, shared his thoughts on the future of oil and oil prices. He pointed out that the sudden increases and decreases in prices in recent years are expected to continue in the coming years, while the short-term stable prices should not mislead investors. He stated that electric cars could not be integrated into our lives as much as claimed in the short and medium term.

He shared the opinions of the Turkish oil and gas company executives who participated in the limited participation meeting on a regional and local scale. IICEC Director Professor Carmine Difiglio shared its intention to continue new collaborations with the Energy Business Council in 2018 with the members.
