The Surge, Frontier Energy Network’s Monthly Newsletter
Welcome to the November edition of The Surge – designed to keep you connected with all that’s happening within Frontier.
As we near the end of the year, things certainly aren’t slowing down for Team Frontier, and we’re here today to bring you up-to-date with all you need to know about the eighth edition of the Africa Energies Summit, the World Energies Summit, and the Frontier Energy Network.
Africa Energies Summit 2025
Agenda Now Live!
Those of you who attended Africa Energies Summit 2024 will be familiar with our annual Delegate Input Survey. A huge thank you to all those who responded, your feedback and guidance is incredibly valuable to us; the eighth edition of the Summit takes its inspiration from what you told us and ensures that we are addressing the topics that mean the most to you - our IOC, NOC, supply chain, government and regulator audiences.
Built around six key themes, delegates will have the chance to explore these areas with Africa’s top energy experts and industry leaders. In addition, we will feature over 30 governments and topics relevant to African government entities, as well as an industry roundtable programme offering a platform for in-depth discussion.
If you’d like to find out what those six themes are, why not be amongst the first to view the agenda by requesting a copy.

World Energies Summit
The Post-Summit Report is now available for download.
If you weren't there, a read through the Post-Summit Report will confirm that you should have attended last month's World Energies Summit. The second edition of this unique event brought together 200+ energy industry professionals, government representatives and regulators to set current energy demand in context and discuss the opportunities for oil and gas across the globe. If you'd like to find out more about the discussions had and the observations shared, the Post-Summit Report makes for insightful, fascinating reading.
