On May 18th, 2026, Energy Policy Research President Lucian Pugliaresi and Trustee Ivan Sandrea are scheduled to speak at a CEBRI (Brazilian Center for International Relations) webinar entitled “The Trump Oil Shock: Impacts in the Industry and the World Economy” at 9am Eastern Time.
CEBRI writes: “Rising tensions in the Middle East, shifts in global energy policies, and ongoing transformations in hydrocarbons markets have brought oil back to the center of debates on economic stability and international security. Amid geopolitical uncertainty involving Iran, changes in production dynamics across the Americas, and evolving priorities among major powers, global markets are entering a new period of volatility, with direct impacts on prices, investment decisions, and trade flows.
Against this backdrop, this webinar proposes to discuss how recent geopolitical shocks are reconfiguring global oil markets and what their potential implications may be for the industry, the world economy, and Brazil, bringing together experts to examine the effects of this new environment on the energy sector and on the international economic order.”
