From September 3 to September 14 of this year, the country will host the 4th edition of the International Angola Oil and Gas Conference, with the participation of more than 40 oil and gas industry producing and service-providing companies.
The President of Energy Capital and Power, the event organizer, pointed out that the conference will serve as an opportunity for investors to explore the great potential of Angola’s Oil and Gas sector and the favorable policies that attract investment in the Energy sector.
“As we enter the African free trade area, regional cooperation will strengthen more than ever before. This conference will provide a platform for business contacts in the Energy sector, knowledge exchange, and strategic partnerships,” she said.
The organizer stated that the conference will address important topics, such as efforts to attract young talents and promote gender equality in the Oil and Gas sector in Angola.
The event will also focus on career opportunities and leadership development for women in the Oil and Gas sector, encompassing sustainability and innovation programs as well.
Promoting social justice for a stronger, fairer, and more equitable Energy sector will be among the themes discussed during the event.
To carry out this activity, Energy Capital and Power will partner with ANPG, the Ministry of Mineral Resources, Petroleum, and Gas, Sonangol, the African Chamber of Energy, Total Energy, Azule Energy, and others.
AECIPA presents the CRIAR project
Yesterday, on the Day of the Petroleum Sector, the Association of Contracted Companies in the Angolan Oil Industry (AECIPA) presented the CRIAR project.
Bráulio de Brito, Chairman of the AECIPA Board of Directors, introduced the project during the Sustainability Forum, stating that CRIAR is a program created in collaboration with the specialized training company, Brish Global. The main objective is to place recently graduated young individuals with a higher education degree into internships in Oil and Gas sector companies.
According to Bráulio de Brito, the idea is to select these young people through a pre-screening process and then guide them through a behavioral education program before placing them in 12 to 18-month internships in various companies, providing them with valuable experience to be ready for the job market.
He also mentioned that the CRIAR project was launched earlier this year and already has some students interning in companies that have joined the program.
