The international oil and gas sector is paying increasing attention to Africa’s oil and gas exploration landscape in 2022 and beyond.
With much of the attention of the industry having been focused on oil exploration and recovery in South America, notably, Guyana and Suriname, in recent years, the African Energy Chamber (AEC) said in its 2022 report that the region is now set to move to the centre of the global industry’s attention this year.
Africa, the report said, is seriously seeking to step up exploration activities this year as part of a broader initiative to position the continent to be treated as a global energy hub.
