Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>South Sudan\u2019s government-owned oil company (Nilepet) was in the spotlight yesterday at an investment reception in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates.<\/p>\n

The Invest in African Energy reception was hosted by the African Energy Chamber in Dubai in partnership with S&P Global Commodity Insights and Afreximbank.<\/p>\n

Bernard A. Makeny, Managing Director of Nilepet, and Opoku A. Danquah, CEO of Ghana National Petroleum Corporation, spoke on the opening panel titled \u2018Africa\u2019s Advantage: Taking Advantage of Africa\u2019s Upstream Opportunities\u2019.<\/p>\n

They were joined by Matthew Rawlings, VP Upstream Consulting (ME), S&P Global Commodity Insights and the session was moderated by Geoff Warr, Consulting Director, S&P Global Commodity Insights.<\/p>\n

The Nilepet Managing Director emphasized the upstream opportunities available in South Sudan. Makeny said neighbouring countries are already major stakeholders with an interest in working together for the common good.<\/p>\n

Makeny also explored solutions around servicing the downstream market and expanding the midstream sector for the local and regional market, expanding local capacity and creating employment, and working towards the common good of the continent.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfrica has a lot to offer the world. This century should be the African century,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Nilepet\u2019s meetings in Dubai take place ahead of the sixth edition of the South Sudan Oil&Power (SSOP) conference on 14-16 June 2023.<\/p>\n

As host sponsor, Nilepet invited investors in Dubai to join South Sudan\u2019s energy community in Juba for the SSOP 2023 event. The theme for this year\u2019s SSOP conference is \u2018Engine of East African Growth\u2019.<\/p>\n
