OPEC

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries convenes at a moment of real uncertainty for global energy markets, as member states navigate production quotas, price stabilization, and mounting pressure from non-OPEC supply growth, sanctions, and the long-term shift away from fossil fuels. Delegates will represent oil-producing nations balancing near-term revenue against fiscal sustainability, market share, and shifting alliances within OPEC+. This committee will run as a specialized committee with front-room crisis elements, meaning real-world developments and unexpected market shocks may be introduced as the conference progresses. Given the volatility of global energy markets, delegates are strongly encouraged to follow current events in the lead-up to and during the conference, as breaking news on production decisions, sanctions, or geopolitical developments may directly shape committee debate. Delegates should come prepared not only with knowledge of their country's energy policy, but with the flexibility to adapt as the situation on the ground evolves in real time.
