bp Confirmed as VIP Lounge Sponsor for World Energies Summit 2026
Few companies embody global upstream reach quite like bp - and this year, that reach lands at the Summit.
Named Wood Mackenzie's Most-Admired Explorer after discovering more than 2 billion BOE in 2025, bp joins us with momentum across every region on the Summit Agenda.
Delegates can expect first-hand insight from Dr Bryan Ritchie - VP Exploration and colleagues, on bp’s recent global activity, which includes first non-associated gas production at ACG in the Caspian - the first commercial gas operations in the field's history, which began just weeks ago.
The Denise W gas and condensate discovery offshore Egypt, announced earlier this year is sited within 10km of existing infrastructure for fast-track potential, whilst the Conifer Paleogene exploration well in the Gulf of America, is set to spud later this year.
A landmark 2025
2026 is building on a landmark 2025 for the company, headlined by Bumerangue pre-salt discovery in Brazil's Santos Basin drilled with 100% working interest, and bp's largest find in 25 years, as well as further discoveries in Trinidad, Egypt, Libya and though joint venture Azule Energy in Namibia and Angola.
Join Global Upstream Leaders
The VIP Lounge sits at the heart of the Summit experience - a dedicated space where ministers, NOC leaders, investors and executives hold the conversations that shape global upstream.
