Kosmos Energy, a leading deepwater exploration and production company focused on meeting the world’s growing demand for energy, is a Gold Sponsor of the virtual #2021USGhanaBusinessForum.
The company‘s assets include oil production and exploration in proven basins offshore Ghana, Equatorial Guinea, and the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, as well as a world-class gas development offshore Mauritania and Senegal.
Kosmos opened a significant new hydrocarbon province, the Tano Basin, with the discovery of the Jubilee Field offshore Ghana in 2007. The Jubilee Field straddles both the West Cape Three Points and Deepwater Tano blocks. Success at Jubilee was the result of the company’s identification of the overlooked Upper Cretaceous structural-stratigraphic play concept along the Transform Margin of Africa.
They aim to create value for stakeholders by maximizing the value of their producing assets and adding new resources through infrastructure-led and play-extending exploration in the proven basins where we operate.
Kosmos focuses on infrastructure-led and play-extending exploration in proven basins — such as the Gulf of Mexico and Rio Muni basin offshore Equatorial Guinea — where discoveries can be tied back to existing production facilities more quickly, at lower cost, and with a lower overall carbon intensity.
The American Chamber of Commerce, Ghana, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and our partners, Embassy of Ghana, Washington DC, United States Commercial Service, Ghana Investment Promotion Centre, and the Ghana – Houston Chamber of Commerce are grateful for the support.
The US-Ghana Business Forum is an annual flagship, high-level meeting between U.S, Ghanaian Government Officials, and Businesses aimed at deepening diplomatic and commercial partnerships between Ghana and the United States.
The 2021 Forum is premised on the theme: Promoting U.S.-Ghana Partnership through Trade and Investment and comes on the back of Ghana’s hosting of the Africa Continent Free Trade Area Secretariat and also after several months of trading through the AfCFTA. The AfCFTA is the world’s largest free trade area in terms of number of countries encompassing 1.2 billion people and about US$2.5 trillion. The AfCFTA presents a window for African countries and their trading partners to take advantage of the many trade and investment opportunities created. Trading partners who had hitherto focused on bilateral trade relations, now have the opportunity to reach larger African markets through the AfCFTA.
The 2021 Forum aims to strengthen trade and investment, promote business partnerships, and opportunities between U.S. and Ghanaian Companies in key sectors including: Technology and digitization, Energy and Mining, Infrastructure, Manufacturing, Services and Franchising. The forum will also review trading under the AfCFTA and assess how U.S. and Ghanaian companies can take advantage of this opportunity.
The event will be virtual to be held over two days. The forum will have several sessions including plenary with high-level government officials as speakers; panel discussions on sectors involving experts and senior U.S. and Ghanaian Officials and leaders from the business community. It will serve as a platform to explore new business opportunities and address regulatory challenges affecting trade and investment. Further access details will be sent following registration.
