The African Energy Chamber (AEC) will lead a high-level delegation to the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela on 22 to 26 February 2026 to deepen bilateral oil and gas ties between Venezuela and Africa.

As an honorary member of the African Petroleum Producers Organization, Venezuela has consistently supported Africa in its oil and gas endeavors.

“I am honored to travel to Venezuela to promote our joint interest in making African energy poverty history. African energy investors will play a role working with their Venezuelan counterparts to rekindle the oil industry in Venezuela,” said NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the African Energy Chamber.

Ayuk looks forward to engaging in discussions with friends and allies in Venezuela to advance mutually beneficial interests, strengthen global energy security, expand energy capacity, and, most importantly, improve quality of life through reliable energy access.

Meanwhile, the delegation will meet with government officials, business leaders, and energy stakeholders to strengthen bilateral energy trade and explore opportunities for future investment.
