We all got together on December 7, at the Four Seasons Hotel in downtown Houston for a welcome reception. The event was to welcome the delegations from Russia, Kazakhstan, and Azerbaijan to the World Petroleum Congress. The host was US – Russia Chamber of Commerce. Let me tell you, that Four Seasons is one sweet nice looking place.
There was an interesting mix of people there: Governor of Texas Office, Houston Tourism Office, lawyers, and industrial shipping. I think most of the people that I met did some type of transportation for the oil industry, like maritime or over-the-road. The US-Russia Chamber of Commerce works in conjunction with the Russian Consulate here in Houston
I see Russia as one of our great allies in the world. They got smart people and are industrious. Stay turned as I learn more about this local organization.
