The Congo Energy & Investment Forum (CEIF) 2025, set to take place in Brazzaville from March 24-26, is a highly anticipated event focused on energy sector growth in the Republic of Congo. Under the theme, “Securing Growth and Investment in a New Era,” it aims to bring together top executives, policymakers, and investors for substantive discussions, deal signings, and exhibitions.
Patronized by President Denis Sassou Nguesso and supported by the Ministry of Hydrocarbons and the Société Nationale des Pétroles du Congo, CEIF 2025 emphasizes the nation’s growing position in Africa’s energy landscape. The forum will feature participants ranging from international oil companies to technology providers, presenting opportunities for investment and collaboration.
The event will kick off with technical sessions that discuss the Republic of Congo’s oil and gas market, including advancements in production and infrastructure development. Topics such as monetizing stranded gas and establishing the country as a regional energy hub will be pivotal to these discussions, highlighting investments in the energy market.
Moreover, CEIF 2025’s diverse program will encompass panel sessions, workshops, and presentations detailing the latest energy developments and projects that drive Congo’s energy agenda. This initiative is essential for understanding current trends and future opportunities in the energy sector.
A significant aspect of the forum will be the official unveiling of the Gas Master Plan and the introduction of a new Gas Code, both aimed at enhancing the legal framework for gas exploration. This plan is designed to consolidate existing gas assets and attract further investment to the sector, emphasizing the commitment to expanding energy production.
In line with its ambition to increase oil production to 500,000 barrels per day by 2027, the forum will introduce a new oil and gas licensing round, offering various acreage to investors.
