Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Africa Oil Week (https:\/\/Africa-OilWeek.com<\/a>) is excited to present the panel discussion \u201cWhat can Oil and Gas offer the South African Economy?\u201d as part of its South Africa Energy Day, at Africa Oil Week. The panel \u2013 held at the leading Oil and Gas event in heart of Cape Town – will be moderated by Howie Frylinck, National Sales Manager, Pentagon Freight Services.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Organised by Hyve Group Plc., Africa Oil Week is the Home of the African Upstream, and this unmissable event will bring leading energy stakeholders together on the 3-7 October in Cape Town under the theme: Sustainable Growth in a Low Carbon World.<\/p>\n

\u201cDifferent to other African countries, South Africa offers a highly skilled workforce and industry already involved in O&G upstream in Sub Sahara Africa. For South Africa, this will not be new territory and in a country where unemployment is at an all-time high \u2013 skilled and unskilled can benefit just from job creation. The evidence of this is all around to be seen in the region,\u201d Moderator Howie Frylinck said.The oil and gas sector employs approximately 1% of Africa workforce; this amounts to approximately 14 million people earning their daily income from O&G Upstream. In addition to job creation and upskilling of the workforce, the natural resource sector makes a crucial contribution to Africa\u2019s GDP, government revenue and export earnings as well as the large number of goods and services are needed for oil exploration,\u201d said Frylinck.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith over 600 million people in Africa without access to power, it is clear the energy scenario is very different to that of the developing world. Africa has for many years been exploited of its natural resources whilst industrialised countries benefited. It is therefore too simplistic to suggest Africa must transition at the same pace as the U.S.A., the U.K., and other western economies,\u201d said Frylinck.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe argument isn\u2019t about the reality of climate change: The world accepts the reality of that. The question is, why should Africa leave over $1.3 trillion on the table between now and 2050? Especially if we can develop hydrocarbons safely and with strong carbon management strategies,\u201d Frylinck added.<\/p>\n

This session will explore the economic upsides of development whilst also balancing climate change realities. Panellists include Craig Morkel, South African Oil and Gas Alliance; Hasnayn Ebrahim, Managing Director, Africa International Advisors; Thabiso Tenyane, Executive Chairman and CEO, Phawke Group; and Andri Hugo, CEO, NOVO Energy.<\/p>\n
