NOG Energy Week has initiated a call for technical papers for its 2027 Technical Seminar. The seminar aims to bring together industry experts, researchers, and academics to share knowledge and innovative solutions for challenges in Nigeria's oil and gas sector. Submissions are invited across 14 technical categories that span the energy value chain. This call is an opportunity for professionals to present their work and contribute to the sector's growth.
The technical categories for submissions include upstream activities such as geoscience, field development, drilling, and asset management. Midstream operations like infrastructure, facilities, supply, pipeline transportation, shipping, and marine services are also covered. The organisers emphasise that the seminar seeks to promote the exchange of research, field experience, and practical knowledge. This exchange is expected to support investment, operational efficiency, and technological development in Nigeria's energy sector.
Razaq Shuaib, Asset Operations Support at TotalEnergies EP Nigeria, reviewed submissions for last year's programme. He noted that the contributions reflected a wide range of expertise within the industry, including working engineers and students. Shuaib stressed the importance of developing technical knowledge and human capacity to sustain progress in Nigeria's energy sector. He highlighted that human capital remains a major driver of industry growth.
Wemimo Oyelana, Portfolio and Country Director at dmg Nigeria, spoke about the programme's objectives. Oyelana stated that the seminar is designed to provide professionals working on practical industry challenges a platform to share their experiences and findings with a wider audience. The goal is to reach individuals actively solving problems in the field and offer them a platform to share their learnings with the wider industry.
According to Oyelana, the programme aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. By providing a platform for professionals to share their experiences, the seminar seeks to foster collaboration and innovation within the industry. This, in turn, can lead to improved operational efficiency and technological advancements in Nigeria's oil and gas sector.
The call for papers is open to researchers, engineers, academics, and other energy professionals. Submissions will undergo a review process, similar to last year's programme, to ensure that only high-quality and relevant papers are accepted. The seminar is expected to feature a range of presentations that showcase innovative solutions and practical knowledge.
