In another major step towards solidifying this relationship, the African Petroleum Producers Organisation (APPO) will be hosting the Africa Pavilion as well as the Africa Energy Futures Forum at the 24th World Petroleum Congress to be held in Calgary, Canada from 17 to 21 September.
For the first time in the 36-year history of the APPO, it is partnering with the World Petroleum Congress as a Supporting Organisation to create a platform for African countries, national oil companies, independent petroleum producers, and the entire energy business value chain to expand the frontiers of business through strategic partnerships, investments, technical and economic cooperation.
The Africa Energy Business Roundtable-VIP Breakfast on 20 September will be a special attraction, with the theme 'Unveiling the enhanced competitive business and investment environment in the African fossil energy industry landscape'. The Africa Energy Futures Forum on 21 September will explore 'Financing the emerging decarbonised fossil energy industry in Africa'.
There will be strategic engagement with the Alberta Province, industry associations such as the Canadian Gas Association, Canada Association of Petroleum Producers, ENSERVA, Canada Global Energy Forum, Calgary Chamber of Commerce, to achieve the net benefit of enabling Canadian investments and strategic economic cooperation in the Africa fossil energy industry.
