In the post-pandemic era, the rising oil prices, the discoveries of significant offshore oil and gas fields of West Africa region, and aims of accelerating monetization of regional hydrocarbon by 2050 have driven demand for active offshore upstream exploration in West Africa. Recently, Nigeria and Sierra Leone held new round of offshore bidding separately, Ghana is planning for new deep offshore bidding now. During 2019 to 2022, the West African countries such as Angola, Côte d’Ivoire, Senegal, Equatorial Guinea, Congo, Liberia, Gambia, either launched bidding round or opened for direct negotiation for untapped blocks. Meanwhile, projects in several West African countries are heading for FID in 2023. What is status of different projects in West Africa countries? What challenges and concerns of the government, NOCs and IOCs and how could involve in the projects?

With the strongly support of Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC), Nigerian Content Development & Monitoring Board (NCDMB), Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), World Bank, African Petroleum Producers Organisation (APPO), Ministry of Energy, Ghana, Sonangol E.P., PETROSEN E&P, Ministry of Mines, Industry and Technological Development (MINMIDT) , Cameroon, Liberia Petroleum Regulatory Authority (LPRA), National Oil Company of Liberia (NOCAL), TotalEnergies, Eni, PetroNor E&P Ltd (formerly African Petroleum Corp), MAN Local Content Group, Manufacturers Association of Nigeria, Nigerian-British Chamber of Commerce, Petroleum Commission, The Gambia, TGS, DHL, and etc., the West Africa Offshore Upstream Conference 2023 (December 5-6th, Abuja, Nigeria) is committed to gathering the most related players for the hottest topics and projects, and to building a comprehensive platform for information sharing, highly-level communication, and best practices showcasing.
