It highlights the vital role that indigenous energy companies play in Nigeria’s industrialisation and development. As the leading integrated indigenous energy company in Nigeria with a proven track record of 20 years, we remain dedicated to upholding global standards and maintaining operational excellence.

We extend our appreciation to the Honourable Minister of Petroleum Resources, the CEO of the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) and the GCEO of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd (NNPCL) for their foresight and belief in paving the way for the completion of this transaction. This will surely facilitate the rapid development of Nigeria’s vast oil and gas resources, further paving the way for the Country to achieve energy security and industrial development.”
