Equatorial Guinea to attend Global Energy Forum in Abu Dhabi

Gabriel Mbaga Obiang Lima, Minister of Mines and Hydrocarbons of Equatorial Guinea, will take part in the Global Energy Council of the Atlantic Council in Abu Dhabi on 10-12 January

Hosted under the theme “The Geopolitics of Energy Transformation”, the forum will bring together hundreds of government and industry leaders to set the agenda for 2020 and beyond.

As part of the Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week and in partnership with the UAE Ministry of Energy and Industry, the forum will focus on three major themes: the role of the oil and gas industry in the energy transition, the financing of the future of energy, and interconnections in a new era of geopolitics.

“It is a pleasure to confirm my participation at the Atlantic Council's Global Energy Council in Abu Dhabi on January 10-12,” declared Gabriel Mbaga Obiang Lima.

“The participation of the country in this forum is strategic as it marks the kick-off of our Year of Investment Initiative that will see our delegation promoting key investment opportunities and projects in Equatorial Guinea throughout the world this year,” he added.

In 2020, Equatorial Guinea will organise and participate in a series of high-level international roadshows in China, the UAE, the US and Africa, along with three national conferences in Malabo.
