According to the Energy Council, Southeast Asia is headed into rapid expansion in exploration, with experts predicting a near four percent compound annual growth rate for the region from 2024 to 2029. Fueled by a recent transition from coal to natural gas, Malaysia and Indonesia in particular are leveraging key upstream oil and gas discoveries in the hopes of expediting economic growth and regional energy security.

Join a diverse array of esteemed energy professionals at the International Conference and Exhibition (ICE) 2026, held on 7–9 December in Jakarta, Indonesia to hear the latest global industry insights and be at the center of Southeast Asia’s recent oil and gas boom. This year’s event is the first to bring together AAPG and the Indonesian Petroleum Association (IPA), uniting the global and regional geoscience communities for three days of high impact learning, collaboration, and innovation.

The world-class technical program promises to showcase best practices, pioneering research, and the latest innovations across exploration, development, and production. It will also cover a wide spectrum of topics including: petroleum technologies, CCUS, digitalization, offshore, unconventionals, and more.

The conference also presents a valuable professional development opportunity, in which managers and technical staff can learn about the latest advances in the geosciences and other technical disciplines.
