Source not verified: Reuters, in a report carried by Al-Monitor on 10 October, said organizers of the World Petroleum Congress (WPC) and the Future Investment Initiative (FII) said their events would proceed as planned this month. Newsverum has not independently reviewed the WPC email reportedly sent to delegates or the statement attributed to the FII chief executive; this account relies on Reuters's reporting.

Reuters reported that WPC organizers said the congress was set to run from 11 to 15 October and that foreign leaders and ministers were expected. The email reportedly sent to delegates mentioned an alternative route to Riyadh involving a roughly four-hour drive from Dammam. These are reported plans from organizers, not confirmation that attendees will travel or appear.

The report said FII organizers also intended to proceed with the conference on 26–29 October. A statement Reuters attributed to FII CEO Maha Al Saud said coordinated security arrangements would be in place at airports, conference venues and official hotels, with transport arranged for participants. The original statement was not independently obtained, and this report does not verify that the plans were implemented.
