Congo Plans Energy Infrastructure Reforms at CEIF 2025

The Republic of Congo is aiming to double its oil production to 500,000 barrels per day by 2027, positioning itself as a key player in Central Africa's energy sector. The country will host the Congo Energy & Investment Forum in March 2025, where it plans to launch a licensing round for oil and gas blocks and discuss ongoing projects in the region. This initiative aligns with broader energy reforms aimed at economic diversification and maximizing existing resources. Meanwhile, Malaysia is reaffirming its commitment to the Paris Agreement at COP29, emphasizing the necessity of climate action and international collaboration. The Malaysian Pavilion at COP29 has become a hub for discussions on sustainability and climate finance, highlighting the importance of localized adaptation strategies in the ASEAN region. As the global climate dialogue evolves, both nations are making significant strides in their respective energy and climate agendas.
