Enhanced networking opportunities

Promotional pricing to ensure broader public participation

Key moments will include the opening and closing ceremonies, tributes to historical figures in Angola’s energy sector, and strategic announcements from major industry players.

“This year is very special. The conference is part of Angola’s national independence celebrations, giving it strong symbolic meaning.

We will honor the past while focusing on the future of the sector,” said Luis Conde, Director of the Conference.

Conde also credited the event’s continued success to collaboration between the Angolan government, private companies, and international partners.

“The Angola Oil & Gas Conference has become a benchmark across the African continent. It presents Angola as a modern, stable, and investment-friendly destination,” he added.

AOG 2025 promises to be a pivotal gathering, spotlighting Angola’s evolving role in the global energy landscape and its commitment to sustainable and inclusive sector growth.
