The Papua New Guinea Chamber of Resources and Energy (PNG CORE) is proud to announce ExxonMobil PNG Ltd, the operator of the PNG LNG Project, as the Principal Sponsor for the 2025 PNG Resources Week, to be held from 28 to 31 July 2025 at APEC Haus, Port Moresby.
ExxonMobil PNG, a core player in Papua New Guinea’s energy sector and operator of PNG LNG, has a long-standing record of consistently supporting key PNG CORE events, including CANCONEX, international conferences, and national initiatives that promote collaboration, innovation, and sustainable development in the country’s resource sector.
Their continued sponsorship reflects a deep commitment to the growth of Papua New Guinea’s energy industry and the communities it serves, and continues their legacy of contributing to PNG’s development for over 100 years.
Speaking on the announcement, Mr Anthony Smaré said: “We are pleased to welcome ExxonMobil PNG as our Principal Sponsor for PNG Resources Week 2025. ExxonMobil PNG is an industry role model in how it manages stakeholder relationships with the National Government, government agencies, and community stakeholders. Their partnership with PNG CORE has helped shape many of our flagship events, and their leadership in the energy sector continues to inspire progress and inclusive development. With ExxonMobil’s support, this year’s Resources Week will be a powerful platform for dialogue, innovation, and shared vision.”
“PNG CORE is the leading body for our industry in PNG and has a proven track record for bringing together thought leaders and diverse industry stakeholders on the issues that matter most to the country,” said Dinesh Sivasamboo, Chairman and Managing Director of ExxonMobil PNG Ltd. “We are proud to do our part to support its efforts and those of the Government of PNG to strengthen investment in the country’s extractive industries.”
The 2025 PNG Resources Week will convene stakeholders from government, industry, academia, civil society, and landowner groups to engage in meaningful discussions and help shape the future of PNG’s resource landscape. The event will feature high-level panels, technical sessions, and networking opportunities aimed at fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange.
A highlight of the week will be the PNG Resources Golden Exhibition, a special showcase marking 50 years of progress in PNG’s resource industries. This jubilee-themed celebration will include an interactive digital map display, spotlighting the contributions and legacy of member companies such as ExxonMobil PNG across the country.
PNG CORE looks forward to working closely with ExxonMobil PNG Ltd and all participants to deliver a memorable and impactful Resources Week in July.
