An international oil and gas conference on Africa, the world’s largest unexplored energy frontier, opened yesterday in Washington, sponsored by the Corporate Council on Africa (CCA) and the U.S. Department of Energy. Oil ministers from throughout Africa are attending the 2005 Africa Oil and Gas Forum.
..Currently, CCA President Stephen Hayes said, African countries supply about 12 percent of all the oil consumed in the United States. “By 2020,” he said, “it is anticipated that about 25 percent of our oil will be coming from Africa. That is a tremendous jump.”
