20th Western Africa - Oil, Gas & Energy

“Exploration, Development, Production: Oil/Gas-LNG, New Ventures, Bid Rounds, Investment, Service/Supply”

Global Pacific & Partners announce their 20th Western Africa Oil, Gas/LNG & Energy 2014 Conference, to be held at the Country Club, Windhoek, Namibia, over 15-16 April 2014, with the 10th Western Africa: Strategy Briefing taking place on the 14th April at same venue.

The “Western Africa” arena covers a vast oil and gas exploration zone, one of the world’s richest and most promising for ventures- from Morocco to the Cape, including island states, with an enormous offshore zone and hydrocarbon potential, alongside prospective deepwater blocks, ultra-deep opportunities only to date marginally explored, Exclusive Economic Zones, and promising pre-salt potential analogous to Brasil, plus numerous existing onshore basins (producing and immature, as well as frontier) and a huge interior domain across 27 countries – in effect, fully one half of Africa and the continental land mass of over 30, 000 sq km.

With around 30 speakers from Governments, National Oil Companies, Super-Majors and Independents on the Program, the meeting canvasses the investment strategies, exploration ventures, deal flow, transactions, and new venture opportunities, with bid rounds from Licensing Agencies, in a complex and fast-moving oil/gas-LNG industry, with an enhanced Exhibition and the engagement of the service/supply industry across the region as well as from abroad.

Dr Duncan Clarke, Chairman & CEO, Global Pacific & Partners, remarked: “No global player or emerging Independent with an international footprint, or even fast-growing state oil company, can afford to underrate this world-class Western Africa play – which offers a suite of technical and corporate options: abundant acreage, farmins, acquisitions, bid rounds, new exploration frontiers, a consistent record of oil/gas discoveries, fast-breaking plays such as in the Transform Margin, rising oil/gas reserves, attractive contract terms, competitive potential in LNG ventures across several countries, and even large undeveloped resources in heavy oil/oil sands, and emerging shale gas/oil ventures”.
