With the 6.5 billion barrels of oil and close to 500 billion cubic feet of gas, Uganda is one of the most promising areas for exploration ROI on offer.

"Following the undoubted success of the last 2 Summits in attracting international investors from around the world, UIOGS has become a major business platform for oil and gas in Uganda where all the decision makers for the region are united for three days' high level discussions and networking.We have much to look forward to in 2017 as Uganda continues with preparations towards commercial oil production involving development of the refinery and crude export pipeline.At the 3rd UIOGS there will be many important issues to address so we call on all our partners and investors to actively participate."Hon.
