The PNG Investment Leaders’ Summit, a flagship event during Papua New Guinea Investment Week 2025, will feature Kevin Gallagher, Managing Director and CEO of Santos, as its headline speaker.
Gallagher leads one of the world’s foremost energy companies and a cornerstone investor in Papua New Guinea. Santos has invested billions of dollars in PNG’s oil and gas sector through transformative projects such as PNG LNG and the upcoming P’nyang Gas Project—both critical to the nation’s economic growth and energy security.
With a more than 100-year association with PNG, Santos continues to drive sustainable development, create jobs, and generate significant revenue for the country.
Gallagher’s keynote address will provide unparalleled insights into global energy trends, LNG expansion, and investment strategies shaping the Asia-Pacific region. His participation underscores the summit’s role as the premier platform for strategic dialogue between PNG and Australia’s top decision-makers.
Papua New Guinea Investment Week will be held from December 8–11 at the International Convention Centre in Sydney, under the theme “Stronger Together – Investing for the Future.”
