Diamantino Azevedo, and in partnership with the National Oil, Gas and Biofuels Agency, AIDAC and the African Energy Chamber, this year’s event – organized by Energy Capital & Power - takes place under the theme, ‘Energy Security, Decarbonization and Sustainable Development.’ The event promises to be more impactful than ever as it tackles some of the most pressing issues and emerging opportunities across Angola’s oil and gas sector. A packed program lays the foundation for a wave of industry-advancing deals to be signed as stakeholders convene to discuss the future of Angola’s energy sector.
Kicking off the two-day conference are welcoming addresses by high-level regional and global industry leaders. These include Angola’s Minister of Mineral Resources, Oil and Gas Diamantino Azevedo, Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) Secretary General Haitham al Ghais alongside the respective energy and petroleum Ministers from Equatorial Guinea; Senegal; the Republic of Congo; Namibia; Ivory Coast; Venezuela and more.
