The AEC is asking the wider audience to submit their proposals through the email awards@aecweek.com for the following categories:

This award goes to the company that has excelled in operating in the continent in a novel, sustainable and locally impactful way.

CEO of the Year Award

This award recognizes the achievement of high-level executives that have demonstrated outstanding leadership in their organizations.

ESG Leader Award

Gamechanger Award

This award is given to the company or organization that has revolutionized its field, changing the rules of what is common ground and what has become the new rule.

African Independent of the Year Award

This award is granted to the person/persons who have taken courageous steps in promoting the wellbeing of African citizens, the socioeconomic stability of its nation, and towards improving the functioning and profitability of the energy and hydrocarbon markets.

Under the theme, “Exploring and Investing in Africa’s Energy Future while Driving an Enabling Environment,” AEW 2022 will celebrate industry achievements, and discuss challenges and opportunities within Africa’s oil, gas and energy sector.
