    NOG Energy Week, the preeminent meeting place for the global oil, gas, LNG, and energy sector in Nigeria, will celebrate its milestone 25th edition from July 5 – 9, 2026 at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre, Abuja.

    As a regional powerhouse in energy production, Nigeria continues to shape the future of the global energy landscape.

    The 2026 NOG Energy Week will host its sixth Technical Seminar, which will feature multiple sessions across 14 categories over two days, offering speakers a platform to share their expertise, insights, and innovative solutions with industry leaders, technical experts, and policymakers driving energy transformation.

    The Call for Papers for the CPD-accredited Technical Seminar is now open and welcomes industry professionals to submit entries.

    The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd), in partnership with the TotalEnergies–Sapetro Consortium, executed a landmark Production Sharing Contract (PSC) for Petroleum Prospecting Licences (PPLs) 2000 and 2001.

    Designed to engage both academics and industry practitioners, the Seminar creates space for robust dialogue tailored to the Nigerian operating environment. Through a rigorous peer-review selection process, only the most impactful entries are chosen for presentation at NOG Energy Week, contributing meaningfully to the collective pursuit of innovation and both crude oil and natural gas exploration for the first time. This milestone reinforces Nigeria’s commitment to energy security, economic growth, and transparent investment.

    The agreement strongly aligns with key themes of the NOG Energy Week Technical Seminar, particularly in geoscience, and gas and LNG projects, technologies and developments, reflecting the Seminar’s dedication to advancing energy innovation and progress across sustainable solutions in the energy sector.

    The seminar spans the fullstream value chain and features 14 categories including geoscience, resource and field development, drilling, midstream infrastructure development and facilities management, gas and LNG projects, technologies and developments, downstream fuels and infrastructure development, utilities, power generation and end use, new energies, decarbonisation and sustainability, operational excellence, HSSE and project management, people development, digital transformation, manufacturing and industrialisation, shipping and marine, as well as energy markets and finance.

    The NOG Energy Week Technical Seminar is designed to cater for job functions that include  senior, mid-level and junior roles across technical, engineering and scientific disciplines to deliver sessions on advanced technologies, breakthrough research, and industry best practices. Delegates will enhance their expertise, expand practical capabilities, and build intellectual capital through knowledge exchange and practical learning, positioning themselves at the forefront of energy innovation and project development across the value chain.

    Organizers of the NOG Energy Week have concluded an arrangement to host the 24th edition in Abuja from June 29th-July 3rd, 2025.

    Tagged, ‘Accelerating Global Energy Progress through Investment, Partnerships and Innovation’, the event will bring together leaders, policymakers, regulators and professionals from across the globe to discuss energy transformation as well as explore emerging business opportunities within the country.

    Speaking at the conference, Director – Nigeria, dmg Nigeria Events, Odiri Umusu, said: “For over two decades, NOG Energy Week has been at the heart of shaping Africa’s energy progress, driving conversations that influence policy, investment decisions and industry growth.

    As we gather for the 24th edition, the stakes are higher than ever, with shifting global energy policies, the push for resource maximisation and the need for sustainable development. This platform remains indispensable. NOG Energy Week 2025 will dissect the challenges and also spotlight actionable strategies that ensure Africa strengthens its role in the global energy industry.’’

    The event will feature high-level discussions on policy frameworks, financing mechanisms and technological innovations needed to drive Africa’s energy transformation.

    The NOG Energy Week is the official meeting place for the global energy sector in sub-Saharan Africa, is produced by dmg Nigeria events, a subsidiary of dmg events with over 80 conferences and exhibitions across the world such as Adipec and Gastech.

    Recent remarks from the United States Secretary of Energy, Chris Wright, have sparked renewed conversations about Africa’s energy future. Wright underscored the urgency of pragmatic energy policies that balance economic growth with environmental considerations, emphasising the importance of leveraging Africa’s vast natural gas reserves while fostering investments in traditional hydrocarbons and emerging energy technologies.

    His insights align with the mission of NOG Energy Week 2025, reinforcing the event’s role in driving actionable strategies for energy development across the continent, Umusu said.

    As the energy sector is being shaped by key global developments, including the new President Donald Trump administration’s energy policies, shifting trade agreements and a revitalised focus on fossil fuels reinforcing the need for Africa to position itself within this evolving global context, ensuring that external policies do not hinder the continent’s drive for energy independence and infrastructure development.
