The inaugural Africa Energy and Technology Conference, presented by AAPG and the Society of Petroleum Engineers, will be held Dec. 5–7 in Nairobi City, Kenya.
Two training courses have been planned. The first will be “Improving Success in Drilling.” The course will share information about the best ways to develop a drilling plan and budget. It will also cover the management of operational problems that are common in Africa.
The second is titled “Petroleum Geology Fundamentals” and will introduce the basics of petroleum geology.
Technical sessions will be held throughout the conference that will share examples of geoscience, engineering and energy projects across Africa along with a wide range of topics.
Three panel sessions have been created that will discuss “Africa in the 21st Century: Frontier Plays and Challenges,” “Smart Goals for a Sustainable Future” and “Petroleum Regulation and Contract Sanctity.”
During the event, posters will be displayed and an exhibition area will serve as an ideal spot for networking with companies and other attendees.
A field trip will conclude the conference, taking participants to the Kenya Rift Valley, one of the best-exposed continental rift systems in the world.
