The downstream sector is key to delivering the transition globally. Today success is no longer just measured on safe and profitable operations, but also the delivery of energy and operational efficiency whilst demonstrating a commitment to ESG and maximising in-country value and circularity.

As the region’s refiners and petrochemical producers position themselves for a low carbon transition, ESF MENA 2021 – Middle East Energy & Sustainability Forum: Decarbonising the Downstream Industry will support the collaborations, discussions, and development of a sustainable energy future in which the Middle East’s downstream industry continues to play a leading role.

Through interactive panel discussions, presentations and case studies, ESF MENA will:

• Prepare the industry for tomorrow through market outlooks, future fuel predictions and transition preparation
• Present the latest hydroprocessing catalysts and process technologies to support the evolution of the region’s refiners through increased flexibility and (product slate) diversification
• Explore the latest zero emissions technologies, including CCS and hydrogen, essential to achieving deep decarbonisation targets
• Discuss the opportune pathways and implementation roadmaps for the industry
• Present case studies and strategies on how companies are implementing technologies to reduce the carbon footprint of their operations and assets
• Showcase the production and development of new low-carbon and alternative fuels
• Help you transition to a Circular Economy through waste (plastics) recycling and conversion technologies
• Explore the latest digital enabling technologies shaping future smart refining and petrochemicals production

The global chemicals and laboratory industry contributes $5.7 trillion and supports 120 million jobs with chemicals and laboratory equipment and services being the third largest segment in Egypt. The region has the largest industrial base in the Middle East and North Africa due to its strategic geographic location and proximity to high consuming markets, ensuring Egypt’s position to play a pivotal role in the development of the domestic and MEA region’s chemicals and laboratory industry.

Taking place from 9 – 11 January 2022 at the Egypt International Exhibition Center, CHEMLAB will connect international, regional and local companies, business leaders, innovators, decision and policymakers for face-to-face business conversations crucial to accelerating investment and trade across the chemicals and laboratory equipment value chain in Egypt, North Africa and the Middle East.

Gayle Meikle, CEO of Frontier said “The team at Frontier is excited to deliver our flagship event, the Africa E&P Summit in a hybrid format for the first time in the event’s history. The high-level C-suite audience we envisaged is materialising, driven by a huge pent-up demand to meet in-person. Recently we have welcomed a large number of brand new sponsors and exhibitors to the event. We are privileged to provide a platform for leaders in the industry to meet and discuss how Africa’s E&P sector can embrace the opportunities and challenges being presented by a decarbonising world.”

Key Themes Identified by the Africa’s Upstream Community

A survey we conducted amongst our strong Africa network has provided us with the most extraordinary insight into what the industry wants to cover this year and the Program will focus on the key themes and topics identified during this engagement process including, but not limited to; investments, decarbonisation, E&P opportunities, frontier basins, unlocking funding for E&P projects, opportunities in gas, gas-to-power, offshore exploration, local content, ESG, energy transition vs. energy poverty, NOC’s evolving role in the future, Africa energy policy, risks andregulatory environment and the all important national Government & NOC showcases and license round promotions and updates which are so important to governments that have been in stalemate during the pandemic.
