The Mediterranean Gas & Energy Week, the industry’s biggest online event in the region, concluded its three day of sessions with 60 expert speakers presenting the latest opportunities in the region to over 2,000 senior executives from the oil, gas and renewables industries.

The summit was sponsored by GeoMar, HELPE Upstream, Hellenic Hydrocarbons Resources Management, Sproule and Rystad Energy.

Key government officials from the region, including Morocco, Montenegro, Malta, Albania, Croatia and many more, discussed the region’s latest Licensing Rounds, LNG mega-projects, and new midstream projects, together with Mediterranean’s most-established investors and new players, including TAQA Arabia, Engie, Dana Gas, Enagas, Sound Energy, Chariot Oil & Gas and more.

Also, ETAP presented Tunisia’s new upstream opportunities as Croatia will be making 3 new blocks available for bidding over the next year, while the Croatian Hydrocarbon Agency is promoting the country’s geothermal energy potential and new contracts available for bidding.
