The apex body of specialized reporters covering the Nigerian energy industry will in November 2,2021 provide a credible platform for industry policy drivers, players and stakeholders to examine the country\u2019s new fiscal landscape and investment outlook.<\/p>\n

In a statement released by Association Of Energy Correspondents of Nigeria (NAEC), the 2021 strategic conference is expected to discuss on \u2018 PIA: Energy Transition and The Future of Nigeria\u2019s oil and gas\u2019 which is the theme of this gathering.<\/p>\n

The event which is this year\u2019s edition of the annual promises to assemble panelists from the full spectrum of the industry, extending participation in the debate to diplomats at the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) whose Secretary General, Dr Mohammed Barkindo, would function as the Special Honorary Conference Chairman.<\/p>\n

NAEC stated in a release that the conference will hold at Eko Hotel and Suites, Lagos and would be in-person and virtual due to the COVID-19 restrictions.<\/p>\n

Although Africa appears to be on the vicinities of the global energy transition driven by severer environmental regulations, the recent enactment of Nigeria\u2019s PIA provides a new vista of opportunities for operators across the industry value chain.<\/p>\n

Also, the federal government recently declared 2021 to 2031 as \u2018A decade of Gas.\u2019 In view of this, the conference will give both government and industry players the opportunity to explain to Nigerians and the world; the expected derivable benefits from a gas-propelled economy.<\/p>
