In spite of the COVID-19 challenges, the oil and gas industry seems to be on an overall upturn. The exploration interest across the world is reviving and Africa’s hydrocarbon exploration activities are seeing an increased optimism.
African governments are adjusting to a new world order, for example by making positive amendments to their bid terms to attract investments into the development of their oil and gas resources, and an increased participation in virtual events in order to showcase their nation’s hydrocarbon prospectivity and potential.
At the Africa E&P Virtual Summit, a delegation of governments and industry leaders will hold three exclusive roundtable sessions on Liberia, Ghana and Namibia’s oil and gas future.
