The second day of the Angola Oil & Gas (AOG) 2023 conference and exhibition featured the signing of a partnership agreement between the environmental management company, Ambipar, and the energy company, Kini Energias.
Signed by Rogério Calderaro, CEO of Ambipar, and Bráulio Brito, Managing Partner for Kini Energias, the services covered by the agreement will include the installation of an industrial unit for the assembly and testing of waste suction equipment and for the control and mitigation of spills and waste management.
Furthermore, the partnership will allow for the recruitment and professional development of Angolan technicians, as well as the possibility of providing a door-to-door service to some of the main players in the oil and gas sector in Angola.
Specializing in waste management, sanitary solutions, and water treatment, Ambipar minimizes the environmental impact of oil and gas operations, managing the full recovery of industrial waste and remediating oil spillage.
As such, the partnership agreement between the two companies is poised to result in the sustainable development of Angola’s oil and gas resources and ensure compliance with global environmental, social, and governance standards within the country’s hydrocarbons sector.
Kini Energias is an Angolan service provider with extensive experience in the country’s oil sector. By participating in this agreement, the company will be well-positioned to properly manage its waste and allow Kini Energias to use water more efficiently while recycling excess oil derivatives.
Taking place under the theme, ‘Energy Security, Decarbonization, and Sustainable Development,’ this year’s edition of AOG 2023, organized by Energy Capital & Power, is occurring from 13-14 September. It emphasizes the need for development initiatives that meet the country’s energy targets while ensuring minimal impact on the environment and local populations. As such, this agreement is poised to help the country meet its development goals while striving to address the narrative of a just energy transition.
