Driving Innovation, Engineering Excellence and Future-Focused Solutions

*Returning for 2026* Attendees at the Namibia Oil and Gas Technical Conference will gain actionable insights into the latest engineering approaches, digital innovations and operational strategies necessary to stay at the forefront of an industry undergoing dynamic transformation.

From exploration breakthroughs to sustainable production techniques, the conference provides the tools and conversations that keep technical teams sharp, agile and ready for what’s next.

Held during a period of unprecedented momentum following Namibia’s recent offshore discoveries, this year’s conference arrives as the country cements its status as Africa’s next major energy hub. With growing global interest and substantial investment flowing into the sector, there has never been a more impactful time to contribute, connect and lead.

Technical Topics

The 2026 conference will provide a comprehensive overview of Namibia’s evolving oil and gas landscape, with a focus on the full project lifecycle—from exploration and appraisal to production, infrastructure and sustainability. Expert-led sessions and technical panels will dive into the key trends, challenges and innovations shaping the sector today, while also exploring Namibia’s growing role in the regional and global energy conversation.

Whether your focus is upstream, infrastructure, digital transformation or environmental stewardship, the programme is designed to deliver actionable insights and foster meaningful collaboration across the industry.
