African Frontiers focuses on the emerging countries and players in the Continent, including onshore/offshore States and some with deepwater plays, including micro-States in the interiors and island worlds, as well as selected archipelagos. More such countries are entering the exploration cycle, delineating blocks, and opening previously neglected or untouched basin opportunities for small and large companies.
