Angola is advancing its energy transition by increasing natural gas’s share in its energy mix to 25% by 2025. The country is prioritizing both associated and non-associated gas projects to boost production while aligning with its decarbonization goals.
The upcoming Angola Oil & Gas (AOG) 2025 conference, scheduled for September 3-4 in Luanda, will focus on opportunities and challenges within Angola’s energy transition strategy.
Key Developments:
- LNG Expansion: Angola has been an LNG producer since 2013 and is investing in non-associated gas projects such as the Quiluma and Maboqueiro (Q&M) fields, set to commence production in early 2026.
- Sanha Lean Gas Connection: A $300-million Chevron-led project delivering 80 million standard cubic feet per day, scaling to 220 mmscf/d.
- Decarbonization Efforts: Sonangol and TotalEnergies are implementing drone technology to monitor emissions, while Chevron explores biofuel-based carbon offsets.
In 2025, Angola will launch its Gas Master Plan, a 30-year roadmap to enhance investment and regulatory frameworks in the natural gas sector.
