This year Africa E&P summit was held as a webinar, due to Covid-19’s restrictions. MEL did not miss to chance to participate also this year. Of particular interest to MEL was the May 14th webinar on Namibia’s Oil & Gas Future. We had the opportunity to hear from Maggy Shino, the country’s Petroleum Commissioner. The focus of the webinar fell on:

+ The Ministry’s response to Covid-19
+ The anticipated Venus-1 well; timeline and expectations
+ Namibia’s reaction to the change in environment
+ Namibia’s historical drilling density
+ Namibia’s operating environment and fiscal regime
+ Opportunities and challenges going forward
