Namibia International Energy Conference 2026

Namibia’s offshore discoveries in the Orange Basin have put the country on the global energy map. We're talking about one of the largest deepwater discoveries in decades. This will be the first time in its history, Namibia will be moving into full-scale production.

The potential is huge, but so is the delivery challenge.

Local development and production capabilities in the region is very limited. Bringing these fields into production will require skilled oil and gas professionals. But hiring for the short term will not be enough. With projects likely to run for 20 to 30 years, companies will need to think about building a workforce that can support delivery now and develop capacity needed for the long run.

This is where having a strategic workforce partner can make all the difference. The companies that act early will be in a stronger position to secure the expertise they need, build local capability and mobilise teams that can support the next phase of Namibia’s energy future.

Developing large-scale oil and gas projects takes a very specific kind of talent - people with deepwater experience, strong technical backgrounds, and the flexibility to work in a new and fast-moving environments. We have been placing these specialists for decades.

For over 50 years, we have supported energy projects across upstream, midstream and downstream markets, helping clients build and scale teams across the full project lifecycle. With more than 120 offices across 50 countries, we combine global reach with genuine local insight to deliver anywhere in the world.

Our presence in Windhoek means we can stay close to the organisations shaping Africa’s energy growth.
