project opportunities will be a major
talking point at this year's Uganda
International Oil and Gas Summit (UIOGS),
and East Africa Oil & Gas Summit (EAOGS)
2021.
UIOGS attracts over 400 attendees from
across 125 national and international
companies, the 6th Uganda International Oil
and Gas Summit (UIOGS 2021) will be held as
a virtual event on 28th - 29th September
2021, which stands as the official platform
for the oil and gas business in Uganda and
the must-attend meeting for all stakeholders
in East Africa.
Uganda is now transiting from Exploration to
Development Phase of its oilfields. With
about three projects coming up, the country
expects to develop those of its oilfields
where it has some discoveries. It also
expects to have a 60,000 barrels refinery and
200,000 barrels export crude oil pipeline
from Uganda to Tanzania.
According to the report, Uganda has about
21 oil and gas discoveries, 6 billion barrels of
oil in place, 1.4 billion barrels of recoverable
resources, 500 Bcf of gas, 9 production
licenses, over 14 discoveries to CNOOC, Total
and Tullow, 3 exploration licenses to Armour
Energy and Oranto Petroleum, and 90 per
cent of the Albertine Graben is unlicensed.
The country is certainly experiencing a
transformative time, with a stabilised
government, numerous tax and financial
incentives for investors.
The 6th UIOGS strategic conference
programme has been developed in close
consultation with The Ministry of Energy and
Mineral Development, ensuring its clarity in
addressing the most important issues for Uganda
and all its stakeholders across the value chain
with an interest in the future of oil and gas
exploration and production in the region.
For its sixth edition with the theme "Driving the
Final Steps in Commercialisation and Production',
UIOGS will be brought to you exclusively online
via the energy advance platform, making the
conference even more accessible to hundreds of
companies from all over the world and combining
convenience and knowledge discovery with
virtual exhibiting and one-to-one matchmaking.
"With the EACOP FID now signed, we explore with
those leading major infrastructure and
development operations of the project, the
requirements and next steps in contract
acquisition for cross border operations and the
raft of supporting services throughout the value
chain," says, Global Event Partners, the event
organiser.
For the East Africa Oil & Gas Summit (EAOGS)
2021, the event annually provides a platform for
East African ministries and National Oil
Companies to engage with international and local
investors to examine, discover and debate the
vast opportunities across East Africa's oil and gas
sector.
For its sixth edition, EAOGS will be held as a virtual
event from 17th - 19th November 2021, making
the conference even more accessible to hundreds
of companies from all over the world.
The scope, scale and spread of current and future
oil and gas infrastructure development projects in
East Africa is positioning the region as a hotbed of
oil and gas exploration, investment and
development.
About US$50 billion major oil and gas projects are
underway and planned to support the oil and gas
industries in Kenya, Mozambique, Tanzania and
Uganda and the whole East Africa region
continues to be of great interest to the global
energy community.
The conference programme, which is spread
across two days, is lead directly by major
Government, State companies and global players
in the region and the issues and areas they
highlight of most importance to those operating
in the region.
