Africa Oil Week to reveal African future

With over 900 delegates from 75 countries and 85 presentations from leading speakers representing independents, national oil companies, governments, licensing agencies and banks, the 19th Africa Oil Week will take place from 29 October - 2 November 2012 at the the Pavilion Conference Center in Cape Town, South Africa.

The Global Pacific & Partners' event will be held along with the 14th Scramble for Africa Strategy Briefing, the 47th PetroAfricanus Dinner, the 9th African Independents Forum and the 19th Africa Upstream Conference, ending with the traditional 'braai' (barbeque) on the Cape waterfront.

Showcase presentations are made by key companies and investors in Africa. For instance Dr Duncan Clarke, chairman and CEO of Global Pacific & Partners, tells about future opportunities for independents in Africa. During the Upstream Conference new explorations and discoveries in Equatorial New Guinea, Nigeria, Mozambique and the Maghreb countries are revealed. Executive vice-president, Ian Cooling of Anadarko tells about the exploration journey his leading super-independent made across the continent during the PetroAfricanus Dinner.
