Africa has been recognized as a continent of great promise for hydrocarbon exploration and production. With a high potential and success rate in discoveries and reservoirs, the region is also endowed with significantly large number of small and marginal fields. Majority of these fields that have been discovered remain abandoned without been developed. There are various challenges that militates the development of these fields. More of these fields will still be discovered. Development of these fields will boost the economy of African nations and also increase the revenue stream of the operators.
This conference will provide first hand information on the available small/marginal fields opportunities in Africa; highlight on the geological, technological, economics, geopolitical and management challenges confronting the development of those fields ranked as small or marginal and will proffer solutions through expert presentations and case studies. This conference amongst other things will showcase various technological, commercial, economic and project funding plans for the development of these fields.
