Chief executives from EXXON MOBIL CORP, TOTALENERGIES SE, SHELL PLC, CHEVRON CORP, and BP PLC were dropped from the WPC Energy Congress schedule in Riyadh on Monday following deadly attacks in Saudi Arabia. The conference proceeded despite strikes claimed by Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis that killed 13 people and injured over 300 over the weekend. The security disruption highlights growing risks for energy infrastructure in the region as major oil firms scale back executive travel.
