Today, China is the second biggest destination for Angolan oil (the US, which jumped on the bandwagon after sanctions were lifted, is the largest). Indeed, Angola produces more oil for China than Saudi Arabia does, and, at times, as many as 100,000 Chinese workers have been working on Angolan infrastructure projects.
跟苏丹类似的还有安哥拉这个曾经陷入数十年武装冲突的非洲第二大石油生产国。该国在2002年遭到联合国制裁。但在安哥拉混乱期间，中国用大笔基础设施建设资金换取了大量石油。如今中国也是安哥拉石油的第二大出口目的地（在制裁撤消之后的石油开采热潮中美国得以介入并晋身第一大进口国）。事实上安哥拉向中国提供的石油供应超过沙特阿拉伯，而与此同时，超过10万名中国工人也在参与安哥拉基础设施建设。
