Representing the biggest energy event taking place in Africa in 2022, African Energy Week (AEW) 2022 (AECWeek.com) is proud to be joined by the Nigerian National Oil Company (NNPC), one of the continent’s biggest national oil companies (NOC), as a diamond sponsor. With the sponsorship, the NNPC will make a strong case for investment in 2022 and beyond, while leading critical discussions around the need to increase exploration and production, opportunities created through progressive legislation and positioning NOCs as the energy companies of the future in Africa.

For years’, the NNPC served as an ideal partner for international oil companies (IOC) in Nigeria, representing the Nigerian government in all oil and gas-related matters. Driving local content, strengthening the domestic market and ensuring Nigerian citizens benefit from the country’s oil and gas resources, the NOC served as an example for other NOCs in Africa. 

As such, and as diamond sponsor with an NNPC delegation coming to AEW 2022 in Cape Town, the organization will participate in and lead discussions around the role of NOCs in Africa’s energy future, with dedicated NOC forums serving to broaden dialogue and redefine current narratives.

In this regard, during AEW 2022, NNPC Limited will drive discussions on the impact an enabling environment and the implementation of progressive legislature has on Africa’s energy sector. With the PIA and subsequent NNPC transformation, Nigeria has managed to establish a competitive and highly attractive market for regional and international players, while at the same time demonstrating the effectiveness of African-independent led developments. As diamond sponsor, the NNPC will provide insight into the newly formed organization’s plans for 2022 and beyond, while emphasizing the role NOCs and private oil companies will play in Africa.

“Having the NNPC as a diamond sponsor of AEW 2022 is huge. The sponsorship not only positions the newly privatized company at the forefront of dialogue but further consolidates AEW 2022’s role as the continent’s premier energy event. Centered around oil, gas and making energy poverty history, AEW 2022 is committed to strengthening investment and development across the entire energy value chain. 

What once was one of Africa’s biggest NOCs, the NNPC now represents one of the continent’s leading independents, driving exploration and production and emphasizing the role African companies will play in expanding the energy sector. We are proud to host the NNPC as a diamond sponsor and we look forward to discussions, deals and engagement led by the organization,” states NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the AEC.
