According to summit organizers, Eritrea is one of the most unexplored yet promising areas left in the world, having a government to be strongly encouraging investments from foreign oil companies, with a recently rebuild infrastructure, new economic strategies, and the Eritrean Red Sea to have the classic features of oil richness and existing oil seeps on the islands of the Dahlak archipelago, and along the coast.
The summit is said to provide exclusive industry insights into the investment, exploration, production and infrastructure landscape in the Red Sea including Eritrea, Egypt, Sudan, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan.

The prospect of multiple offshore fields combined with the development of major onshore processing hubs is attracting more and more international companies looking for opportunities on the Red Sea region, organizers said.
The province encompasses the Red Sea, Gulf of Suez, Gulf of Aqaba, and adjacent coastal areas, a total area of about 486,000 very promising square kilometers.
