4th Eastern Africa Oil, Gas & Energy Conference 2013, to be held in Nairobi
NAIROBI – Recent large and world-class gas discoveries in Mozambique and Tanzania, with potential for more to come, and commercial oil flows in Kenya, show the potential of the enormous exploration frontiers of Eastern Africa, both onshore and offshore. The impact of this resurgence is rebalancing the Africa oil-gas industry landscape into a wider continental oil and gas/LNG game, with potentially global consequences.
The 4th Eastern Africa Oil, Gas & Energy Conference 2013 gives new insight in the opportunities, acreage, key players and corporate and government strategies in this region. The Conference is hosted annually by Global Pacific & Partners and will be held from June 18th to 20th in the InterContinental Hotel in Nairobi, Kenya, including the pre-Conference 4th Eastern Africa Strategy Briefing by Dr Duncan Clarke, Africa’s foremost strategist in the upstream. The meeting highlights presentations of CEO’s, government officials, Ministers and key executives from within leading corporate and state oil companies.
Eastern Africa has been transformed into a fast-emerging oil and gas frontier region. The on- and offshore potential includes exclusive economic zones, deepwater opportunities and ultra-deep plays. The 15 nation states in the region are diverse in scale, resource potential, contract terms, and venture-types and in regard to exploration cycles and hydrocarbon discoveries.
Increasing numbers of companies have entered open acreage and bid rounds, and more blocks have been leased than ever before, with more drilling commitments concluded. Foreign state-owned companies like CNOOC and PTTEP have invested in Eastern Africa while Super-Majors (Total, Exxon Mobil, Chevron, Shell and BP) have shown renewed interest, and Independents from around the world now abound.
During the 4th Eastern Africa, OIl, Gas & Energy Conference key Speakers will reveal the exploration potential, future opportunities and growth in countries like Kenya, Somalia, Ethiopia, DRC, the Seychelles, Tanzania, Madagascar, Burundi, Rwanda, and regional oil giant Uganda.
“The new discoveries will add substantial net wealth to the Eastern Africa’s littoral states where they are located, and induce higher economic growth rates and regional development,” Dr Duncan Clarke, Chairman of Global Pacific & Partners, says.
Prior to the conference the 4th Eastern Africa Strategy Briefing together with the celebrated 51st PetroAfricanus Dinner, will be held at June 18th. During the Strategy Briefing Dr Duncan Clarke, author of several historiography and economics books about Africa’s oil future, provides key insights on the corporate upstream oil and gas game, governments and state oil firms and licensing agency strategies.

Global Pacific & Partners invites you to register and join our 4th Eastern Africa Oil, Gas & Energy Conference 2013 taking place on the 19th – 20th June 2013, in Nairobi.
“The exploration frontiers of Eastern Africa are enormous both onshore and offshore, including Exclusive Economic Zones and deepwater opportunities and ultra-deep plays. The 15 states in this region are diverse in scale, terms, ventures and in regard to exploration cycles and discoveries, while more and more companies have entered the open acreage and more blocks have been leased than ever before with more drilling commitments concluded. Equally foreign state companies have come to eastern Africa (like CNOOC, PTTEP) and the Super-Majors have shown renewed interest not only in the primary acreage market but also in the secondary transactions markets for corporate acquisition and farm-ins. The impact of this resurgence is rebalancing the Africa oil industry landscape – once primarily with a dominant North/West African focus – into a wider Continental oil and gas/LNG game, with potentially global consequences.
The recent gas discoveries offshore in Mocambique and Tanzania are large and world-class, with potential for more to come, including prospects for an oil leg. These finds will lead to LNG plants on both sides of the Rovuma River, and will make the zone akin to the Northwest Shelf in Australia, but situated on the western edge of the Asian LNG import market and in competition with older supply centres in Southeast Asia and Australasia. The global market will in time accommodate the LNG supply that will be scheduled in trains scaling upwards to absorb the gas reserves and development profile. The discoveries will add substantial net wealth to the Eastern African littoral states where they are located, and induce higher economic growth rates and regional development in once-remote and poor onshore zones. Amongst challenges will be the timing of LNG developments, scalar choices in trains, settlement of partnerships (even possible Anadarko equity sell-down), the corporate politics of unitisation of adjacent blocks in Mocambique (between Anadarko/ENI and partners), operatorship decisions, possible changes in gas clauses in contracts that might see Government revisions sought, and competition in East Asia and the Sub-Continent for long term offtake agreements (related to volume/price notably), and the solicitation of buyer interest along with the negotiation of contracted terms of sale.”
Themes covered include: Government policies, state interventions in the oil/energy market, state oil/energy companies, private energy investments and interests, corporate portfolio and strategies, new entrants, competition and regulation, plus critical issues impacting the Eastern African future
