Will many people be surprised if in the next few years Angola becomes one of Vietnam's largest oil and gas investment centers abroad, bringing in billions of dollars in energy and profits?

On June 4, Petrovietnam leaders had a high-level working session with the Angolan delegation led by Foreign Minister Téte António to promote cooperation in the oil, gas and energy sectors. The meeting is considered an important step in the strategy to expand the international presence of Vietnam's energy industry, especially in Africa.

Angola is not a strange name to the world oil and gas industry. This country is currently one of the largest crude oil producers in Africa, possessing significant oil and gas reserves and many large-scale offshore exploitation projects.

Vietnamm is not only exporting goods, but also exporting management capacity, technology and experience in developing the energy industry to the world.
