Energy, Capital & Power (ECP) has announced that Celedonio Placido Viera, General Director of Guinea-Bissau’s National Oil Company (NOC) Petroguin, will attend and participate at this year’s edition of the MSGBC Oil, Gas & Power conference and exhibition – the region’s premier event for the energy sector – which will take place on 21 – 22 November in Nouakchott, Mauritania.
MSGBC 2023 will take place under the theme, ‘Scaling Energy Opportunities in Africa’s New Frontiers,’ uniting the region’s energy policymakers and key stakeholders with global investors and partners.
Celedonio Placido Viera will participate in high-level panel discussions, meetings and in the Upstream Forum focusing on the role of Guinea-Bissau and the MSGBC’s vast hydrocarbons reserves in driving energy security and socioeconomic developments.
Representing one of Africa’s frontier markets with highest potential to become a global leading energy producer, the participation of Celedonio Placido Viera at MSGBC 2023 is crucial in showcasing investment and partnership opportunities across Guinea-Bissau and the MSGBC’s burgeoning oil and gas industry.
With Guinea-Bissau seeking international investors and partners to maximize exploration activities, MSGBC 2023 represents the best platform for the NOC’s Director General to showcase the west African country’s rich-hydrocarbons basins while networking and signing game changing deals with global exploration and production firms.
In addition, with Petroguin prioritizing increasing collaboration on local content, skills transfer and knowledge sharing and infrastructure development with regional counterparts – having signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited and NOCs from The Gambia, Ghana, Guinea-Conakry and Sierra Leone for the development of the Nigeria-Morocco Gas Pipeline – MSGBC 2023 is the ideal platform for Guinea Bissau to maximize partnerships with regional players to promote hydrocarbons development and infrastructure rollout.
