The James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy, together with the Houston chapter of the United States Association for Energy Economics, will host the 57th annual Statistical Review of World Energy June 24. Mark Finley, BP America’s general manager for global energy markets, will present the study’s findings.

For 57 years, the BP Statistical Review of World Energy has provided high-quality, objective and globally consistent data on world energy markets. The Review is one of the most widely respected and authoritative publications in the field of energy economics and is used for reference by the media, academia, world governments and energy companies. A new edition is published every June.

Amy Myers Jaffe, the Wallace S. Wilson Fellow in Energy Studies at the Baker Institute, will give the welcoming remarks at 9 a.m. in the Kelly International Conference Facility at James A. Baker III Hall.

Finley will then discuss the annual review, which he is responsible for along with BP’s coverage of global energy markets. He previously served as a senior member of BP’s economics team in London and Washington, D.C. Finley has more than 20 years of private and public sector experience as an energy economist. He is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Michigan and holds graduate degrees from Northwestern University and The George Washington University.
