“I’m delighted to declare this exhibition open. Again, it’s a thing of joy and pride to see you Nigerians see well represented in foreign countries,” she said.
Earlier in his opening remarks, the Chairman of the Petroleum Technology Association of Nigeria (PETAN), Mr. Nicolas Odinuwe, said that the theme of this year’s PETAN organised sessions tagged,”Energy Transition and the Future of Africa”, was carefully chosen to “reflect the current realities in African oil and gas.”
Odinuwe called on the Nigerian oil and gas industry leaders to continue to echo PETAN’s calls to deepen Nigerian Content as always and implored the NNPC Limited Board and others to indulge the Association.
“OTC means different things to different people. But thanks to PETAN’S focused participations. PETAN and Nigeria have built capacities, capabilities and visibility. PETAN has been the host of the Nigerian Pavilion for over 15 years. And we’ve been fully supported by the NNPC (now NNPC Limited) who are in transition,” he said.
.”We’re here to continue to propagate, advocate and advance technology that has led to Nigeria being the only country in Sub-Saharan Africa with a robust E&P and service industry.”
OTC, which kicked off on Monday, May 2 and ends on Thursday, May 5, is a platform where energy professionals across the globe meet to exchange ideas and opinions to advance scientific and technical knowledge for offshore resources.
OTC gives attendees access to leading-edge technical information, the industry’s largest equipment exhibition, and valuable new professional contacts from around the world.
PETAN, an association of indigenous Technical Oilfield Service Companies, has been responsible for leading and hosting the Nigerian delegation to the event annually.
