At the Africa CEO Forum in Kigali, NNPC Limited made it clear: gas monetisation requires credible, bankable solutions tailored to African realities. Our team, led by Executive Vice President of Gas, Power & New Energy, Mr Olalekan Ogunleye, emphasised that reliable payment performance is the bedrock of sustainable gas commercialisation across Africa โ€“ a critical reality check for policymakers and investors alike. With transformational projects like the African Atlantic Gas Pipeline set to connect up to 16 nations, the pathway to energy sovereignty is clear. But it demands credible commercial frameworks, not just political commitment. Africa has the resources. Now let's build the frameworks to unlock them โ€“ together! #AfricanEnergy #GasMonetisation #EnergySovereignty #NNPCLimited

BIG ENERGY: I am pleased to announce that NNPC Limited has successfully completed the River Niger crossing of the OB3 Gas Pipeline. Executed 2km beneath the riverbed using advanced HDD technology, this milestone unlocks a transport capacity of 2 billion scf/dayโ€”strengthening Nigeriaโ€™s energy security, power generation, and industrial growth. It also builds on our AKK crossing success and reflects disciplined execution, innovative engineering, and the unwavering commitment of our team and partner, PCE Nig. Limited. I thank Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for his Gas-to-Prosperity agenda, our Board under Chairman Ahmadu Musa Kida, the host communities, and the resilient team at NGIC for their steadfast support and commitment. The OB3 Pipeline links East to West and connects to the Northern corridor via the AKK Pipeline, unlocking over 500 million scf/day of domestic gas. The AKK will supply power plants, fertiliser, manufacturing, and new industries across Kaduna, Kano, and beyond, driving job creation, economic diversification, energy access, and West African exports.

As we move into the second quarter of 2026, I found it both necessary and energizing to connect with the broader NNPC Limited family at our Town Hall meeting yesterday. It was a moment to reflect on how far we have come, review our business performance, and align on the road ahead. Our conversations continue to reinforce our unwavering dedication to the strategic pillars that define and drive our success: Execution Excellence, Profitable Growth, Partner of Choice, and an Enterprise-First Mindset. These qualities are not just aspirations, they are the foundation of how we work and win together. Yesterday, we reaffirmed and strengthened our shared commitment to create sustained value across every part of the company. Beyond performance, I sincerely value the simple but powerful act of coming together and connecting with my peopleโ€”because working as one enterprise defines and secures our future.

My team and I had a particularly insightful meeting with Clay Neff, President of Global Upstream at Chevron Corporation, along with other senior executives at #CERAWeek 2026. Our talks focused on strengthening our long-standing partnership and aligning our strategic aims to boost production growth, gas development, and expansion in the deepwater sector. Capitalising on the favourable investment climate created by the current administration, NNPC Limited is taking decisive steps to expand our investment portfolio and approve new, transformative projects. Nigeria remains central to our mission, and together with our partners, we are committed to ensuring Nigeriaโ€™s energy market stays competitive on the global stage.

A highlight from my time @CERAWeek continued today as our EVP Upstream, Udy Ntia, took the stage to discuss "Data-Rich, Infrastructure-Ready: The competitive edge of proven super basins."

Capital flows where value is clearโ€”and Nigeria is demonstrating that value with increasing strength and consistency. ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿฝ At CERAWeek 2026 in Houston, under the theme โ€œConvergence and Competition: Energy, Technology and Geopolitics,โ€ I engaged with global energy leaders, C-suite executives, ministers, and policymakers, to reaffirm Nigeriaโ€™s direction. Our approach is deliberate and grounded: anchored on realism, strengthened by partnerships, and driven by disciplined execution. With the policy clarity and commercial autonomy provided under President Bola Ahmed Tinubuโ€™s leadership, NNPC Limited is firmly positioned to pursue long-term, value-driven solutions. Today, Nigeria stands as a credible, competitive, and dependable destination for the energy investment the world requires.

Historic! President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved fiscal incentives unlocking the Final Investment Decision (FID) for the Bonga Southwest Aparo (BSWA) deepwater project. Making it the first deepwater Production Sharing Contract (PSD) to reach this stage since 2008โ€”unlocking $20bn in investment. For Nigeria, this means jobs for engineers, technicians, and local businesses. It means energy security and renewed investor confidence in Nigeriaโ€™s energy reforms. This demonstrates global confidence in Nigeria. This represents sustainable growth. And NNPC Limited stands ready to deliver. #Nigeria #Energy #Investment
