5th African Independents Forum 2008

 

The 5th African Independents Forum 2008 (7th October) focuses on the new and fast-growing local African players in Africa, including Nigeria, with assets elsewhere in the Gulf of Guinea, Northwest Africa, Maghreb-North Africa, Eastern & Southern Africa, and in frontier states.

The Conference features 16 Speakers, and is normally attended by 140 senior executives from Africa and around the world.The Forum is a unique opportunity to meet senior management, discuss new deals, evaluate potential, and get an inside track on the African domestic oil and gas game in which the numbers of Independents has grown substantially.

This special event on Independents is supported by several African organisations, including NAPE, and showcases exploration and development projects and potential of African oil and gas players, as well as the issues facing technical partners and investors. The Independents have spread across the Continent. Their hydrocarbon reserves and production are growing, and they will assume more importance in future, given current policies, as both competitors and partners for Independents and even Super-Majors.

The Conferences closes with a Cocktail Reception, which is also the Ice-Breaker Reception for our 15th Africa Upstream 2008.

The 15th Africa Upstream 2008 Conference follows on over 8-10th October in Cape Town at the BMW-Imax Theatre.

Lead Sponsor
for 15th Africa Oil Week 2007 is Shell.
