Singapore (PRWEB) September 2, 2009 -- As the global marketplace continues to show signs of life, Asian economies, appear poised to exit the recent downturn with solid fundamentals and strong growth prospects. Vietnam's energy sector is certainly one driving factor!
The 12th Vietnam Oil Gas & Power (VOGP) convenes in Ho Chi Minh City on 28-29 October 2009 amid major new growth in Vietnam's energy industry, covering exploration & production, downstream activities, power production, unconventional energy sources and bioenergy.

Vietnam's growth is largely driven by success in Oil Exploration & Production. In fact, PVEP is stepping up offshore exploration to ensure crude oil output and national energy security. PetroVietnam has signed over 60 Production Sharing Contracts (PSC), with more than 50 international oil and gas companies, accounting for billions of dollars of investment. In February 2009, the government announced their plans to invite foreign companies in oil exploration & production projects in its waters in the Gulf of Thailand.
Vietnam's downstream sectors are also looking up as the nation's 1st refinery Dong Quat started commercial production, its 2nd refinery is in the construction stage and a 3rd Refinery announced.
Vietnam's power demand is also expected to surge 15-20 % annually, as the government is calling for international investments to propel its power infrastructure & resources - from coal to alternative energy.
Among the key highlights at the 12th Vietnam Oil, Gas and Power is a preview of Vietnam's yet to be announced "Power Development Master Plan 7". What are the key changes to the revised Master Plan compared to the current plan 6?

VINACOMIN and PetroVietnam will also unveil the future of Vietnam's coal industry at the summit. PVEP will touch on Vietnam's Coal Bed Methane potential in the Hanoi Basin, and share strategies and plans to develop Coal Bed Methane in Vietnam. Coal Bed Methane offers a new window for foreign developers to participate in equity projects with PetroVietnam or VINACOMIN, either in developing Coal Bed Methane resources, or as a service provider.
