A delegation from oil major, Shell led by Eugene Okpere, Shell’s Executive Vice President for Exploration Strategy, Portfolio, Integrated Gas, and Upstream, has met with President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah to discuss the company’s ongoing activities and future plans in Namibia’s oil exploration sector.
During the meeting, the President expressed appreciation for Shell’s investment in Namibia and reaffirmed the country’s openness to investors who contribute to national development.
Shell used the visit to outline its continued interest in Namibia and provide an update on its exploration activities.
The engagement follows a similar visit in April by TotalEnergies Chief Executive Officer Patrick Pouyanné, who also met with the President in Windhoek.
Namibia has attracted significant interest from global energy companies in recent years, following several major offshore oil discoveries.
The developments have positioned the country as an emerging player in Africa’s oil and gas sector.
