The Africa E&P Conference of 2017 was a huge success. With over 50 exhibitions exploring the latest developments in the African continent and the conference itself being host to the largest technical offering in the show’s history, Africa 2017 was an essential event for anyone with interests in the region. We here at PESGB are sure that Africa 2018, taking place in Houston, Texas, will enjoy the same success and the same exceptional technical quality of its sister show in London. It is a date not to be missed!
