The Republic of Congo will be advancing its gas agenda at Invest in African Energy (IAE) 2025 Forum in Paris during the session, 'Monetising Congo’s Gas Opportunities'
Moderated by Geraud Moussarie, managing partner at Sustainable Partnerships, the session will emphasise Congo's strategy on scaling up gas production with proper infrastructure for commercialisation to supply both domestic and foreign markets. Participants comprising the session will include senior representatives from Congo’s national oil company, Societe nationale des petroles du Congo (SNPC); Rus Jiri, sales and development director Africa at Neuman & Esser, and Oumar Semega, CEO of Imperatus Energy.
With a liquefaction capacity of up to 3 mn tons per year, the Eni-led Congo LNG project remains the most impactful of the region's latest industry advances as it puts Congo on a favourable position in tapping the vast export market.
In the domestic front, the Banga Kayo onshore project, led by Wing Wah, is exemplary for its sustainable nature as it will convert flared gas into dry gas, LNG, LPG and polypropylene for commercial use. Strengthening local value chains and gas infrastructure development will drive the New Gas Code that is expected this year, besides the already-implemented Gas Master Plan.
IAE 2025 will be taking place from 13-14 May.
