The federal government through the Ministry of Petroleum Resources and the Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas (NLNG) Limited are collaborating to produce the blueprint for the actualisation of Nigeria’s industrialisation and transformation through the ‘Decade of Gas Initiative.’
On the back of that, the NLNG is sponsoring the 2021 Nigeria International Petroleum Summit’s (NIPS) pre-conference, holding in Abuja on March 29, where President Muhammadu Buhari will lead top oil and gas stakeholders in attendance to brainstorm and flag off the ‘Decade of Gas’ project.
The pre-NIPS conference, with the theme: “Towards a Gas-powered Economy by 2030,” is in furtherance of the federal government’s declaration of January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2030 as ‘The Decade of Gas Development for Nigeria’.
Timipre Sylva, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, has announced June 6 to 10 as new date for the 2021 Nigerian International Petroleum Summit (NIPS).
“We have had to re-consider the dates in light of the current global pandemic,” Sylva said in a special video broadcast on some television stations and which was also shared by the Petroleum Ministry’s official social media handles.
The theme of the summit, “From crisis to opportunities: New approaches to the future of hydrocarbons” aims at charting the way forward for Africa’s oil and gas industry in the post-Covid-19 pandemic era.
The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources said that “while it has been a challenging year for the oil and gas industry due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the crisis also provides us with the opportunity to re-define our industry for transformative moments.”
