CAPE TOWN, South Africa, May 27, 2025/APO Group/ --
Andrew Inglis, Chairman and CEO of upstream energy company Kosmos Energy, has joined this year’s African Energy Week (AEW): Invest in African Energies 2025 conference – set for September 29 to October 3 in Cape Town – as a speaker. Inglis’ participation at the event reinforces Kosmos Energy’s commitment to fostering a transparent, collaborative and opportunity-driven energy environment across the continent, and follows a series of milestones made by the company in recent months.
With operations spanning Senegal, Mauritania, Ghana, and Equatorial Guinea, Kosmos Energy continues to drive development across African energy markets and economies. From oil exploration and production to LNG development and exports, the company strives to unlock deepwater resources across the continent. Inglis’ participation at AEW: Invest in African Energies 2025 aligns with this goal, with anticipated insights showcasing ongoing projects and future investment plans.
AEW: Invest in African Energies is the platform of choice for project operators, financiers, technology providers and government, and has emerged as the official place to sign deals in African energy. Visit www.AECWeek.com for more information about this exciting event.
In the natural gas sector, the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim (GTA) Phase 1 project – a joint venture between Kosmos Energy and supermajor bp – exported its first cargo of LNG in April 2025. Production at the field, which straddles the maritime boundary between Mauritania and Senegal, is now ramping up to the contracted sales volume, with potential to push higher towards, or beyond, the nameplate capacity of the floating LNG (FLNG) vessel of 2.7 million tons per annum. The project achieved first LNG production in February after the first well was officially opened in December 2024.
In Equatorial Guinea, Kosmos Energy and its partners recently completed an infill drilling program on the Ceiba and Okume fields and activity is now focusing on well work to support current production levels. In addition, Kosmos Energy is working with the operator to reprocess existing seismic with modern technology to high grade the future infill drilling potential. The company sees opportunity offshore Equatorial Guinea and aims to develop an even deeper understanding of the subsurface before the next drilling campaign. Kosmos Energy holds a 40% participating interest in Block G, where the Ceiba and Okume fields are located, as well as interest in several other exploration blocks.
Inglis’ participation as a speaker at AEW: Invest in African Energies 2025 reflects Kosmos Energy’s commitment to energy development in Africa. The company’s involvement in this year’s event – which serves as Africa’s premier energy platform – highlights a drive to advance Africa’s upstream oil and gas ambitions and its experience across several basins across the continent.
“Kosmos Energy has played a pivotal role in unlocking Africa’s hydrocarbon potential, particularly in markets like Senegal, Mauritania, Equatorial Guinea and Ghana. Inglis’ participation at AEW: Invest in African Energies underscores the importance of long-term investment, strategic partnerships and the role of independent operators in shaping Africa’s energy future,” states Tomás Gerbasio, Vice President of Commercial and Strategic Engagement at the African Energy Chamber.

I believe this is a lie and that Halo Trust had something to do with this incident, there was no "PRBM-3 anti-tank mine", I believe there was a dispute between the organisation and the police needs to do its investigation and not take bribes from this two guys (Neil and Willoughby).
I have insight knowledge and for them to think it will not bite them back they must be dreaming. They can bribe and lie to the locals, but we Diasporas know exactly what went down.
HALO Trust or whatever should be expelled and new organisation should be given the contract (German organisations). British organisations are some of the most corrupted organisations and once they drink god knows how they behave.
They dont even provide the right equipment with their employees or staff and this for me is negligence and they should face the court, I dont care if Somaliland is littered with landmines, they took up the job and should offer the right equipment and tools because as they said themselves "HALO Somaliland is currently supported by the governments of Finland, Ireland, The Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland and the United Kingdom (DFID) and is looking to further expand its capacity and donors, to deal with the remaining threat as soon as possible and move further eastwards" thus taking money from tax payers of those nations.
I have all respect for you Bro. Kayse, but allow me to disagree with your theory. I’m not here to defend Halo Trust, but I believe they did and still doing a remarkable work in Somaliland from building roads and water wells to doing their main duties to make Somaliland safer place. I’m sure you do agree that our No1 enemy Somali planted thousands and thousands of all kind of mines just so that the people of Somaliland wouldn’t’ comeback to their homes. In those days just attempting to go near Hargeisa was suicide mission, and unfortunately mistakes happens and people die, and I believe Halo staff knows that very well, and what they are doing is risky, and from what I witness I can say that the organization do provide all the needed safety equipment to their staff. So please don’t make assumptions before you make investigation about the issue.
Please guys do not talk about something which you have to clue about. whilst in Somaliland i visted the HALO trust headquarters and found out that they are one of the few NGO's that have a positive effect on the lives of Somalilanders. This seems like an unfortunate accident, and nothing more than that. The country is unfortunately littered with mines thanks to our so called Somali brothers. But to try and besmerge the name of HALO is counter productive and futile. I as a somalilander have seen the many positive work they have completed in our country. Just go and see their compound to inspect the vital work they carry out.
I am aware of their remarkable job, I never said they incompotent, I said they planted the mine there and should be investigated because of disputes among them. Mr Ferrao might not be aware but the other staff could have done it.
Dont be naive boys.
