Held under the High Patronage of President Faye and in partnership with the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum, MSGBC Oil, Gas & Power 2026 reflects the Senegalese government's commitment to advancing energy sector investment and development across the MSGBC basin.

Minister Diouf assumed office in June 2026 following the formation of Senegal's new government, which restructured the former Ministry of Energy, Petroleum and Mines into separate portfolios to place dedicated institutional focus on the country's expanding hydrocarbons sector. He previously served as Minister of Higher Education, Research and Innovation and as Minister of the Environment and Ecological Transition.

Their participation comes as Senegal consolidates its position as a new oil and gas producer. The Sangomar field produced 17.9 million barrels in the first half of 2026, while the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim LNG project – shared with Mauritania – is now operating at full capacity following its first export cargo in early 2025.

Organized under the theme Powering Investment, Delivering Prosperity: Executing the Region's Energy Strategy, MSGBC Oil, Gas & Power 2026 will convene heads of state, ministers, investors, operators and development partners to shape the next phase of energy investment across Mauritania, Senegal, The Gambia, Guinea-Bissau and Guinea-Conakry.
