Description
Hear from Tim McMillan, President and CEO of the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP), as he shares his insights into the future of the industry.
In a post-pandemic world, Canadians are looking for ways to reboot the economy and get people back to work. The oil and natural gas industry is poised to help lead that recovery. In Alberta, CAPP forecasts that upstream investment is expected to increase by 18 per cent in 2021. CAPP will be presenting on the opportunity for a strong recovery within the Alberta, Canadian and Global context. This will include competitiveness and market access challenges, and how the industry and province can position themselves for success through value-add opportunities.
Tim McMillan, President and CEO
Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers
Tim McMillan was appointed President and incoming CEO of the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) on October 1, 2014. The Saskatchewan native is responsible for leading activities in education and communications as well as policy and regulatory advocacy on behalf of CAPP member companies, which represent over 80 per cent of Canada’s upstream oil and natural gas production.
Tim grew up on a family farm near Lloydminster, where the McMillan family first homesteaded more than a century ago. After earning an economics degree from the University of Victoria, he returned to the family farm and founded and operated an oilfield services company. His solid understanding of the oil and natural gas industry from both a business and landowner perspective, coupled with his background in economics, propelled his desire to seek a seat within the Saskatchewan Legislature.
In 2007, Tim was elected as a Saskatchewan Party MLA in the riding of Lloydminster. From 2010 until his appointment as President and CEO of CAPP, Tim held several strategic cabinet portfolios in the Government of Saskatchewan, including minister of energy.
Tim lives in Calgary with his wife and their two daughters.
