Calgary has been selected to host the World Petroleum Congress in 2023, beating out four other global cities in voting that took place in St. Petersburg, Russia.

The World Petroleum Council selected Calgary to host its global oil and gas forum in a fourth ballot early Sunday, where the other remaining contender was Baku, Azerbaijan.

Mayor Naheed Nenshi, who was in St. Petersburg for the vote, said in a video posted to social media that the selection is "a shot in the arm for the Canadian energy sector." A news release from the World Petroleum Congress Canada calls the event the "Olympics of oil and gas," noting it will bring in an estimated 5,000 delegates to the city.

Could have had the Olympics.
