NOG Energy Week has invited researchers, engineers, academics and other energy professionals to submit technical papers proposing practical solutions to challenges facing Nigeria’s oil and gas industry.

The call for papers for its 2027 Technical Seminar covers 14 categories across the energy value chain, with emphasis on research, innovation and practical experience that can improve operations, attract investment and promote technological development.

The areas include upstream operations such as geoscience, field development, drilling and asset management; midstream activities covering infrastructure, pipelines, shipping and marine services; and downstream operations, power generation and industrialisation.

Other areas of interest include artificial intelligence, digital transformation, decarbonisation, health, safety, security and environment (HSSE), project management, finance and human capital development.

Asset Operations Support at TotalEnergies EP Nigeria, Razaq Shuaib, who reviewed submissions for last year’s programme, said the papers reflected the depth of expertise available in the industry, including among practising engineers and students.

He stressed the importance of technical knowledge and human capacity in sustaining growth in Nigeria’s energy sector.

Portfolio and Country Director, dmg Nigeria, Wemimo Oyelana, said the seminar was designed to give professionals tackling real industry challenges an opportunity to share their findings and experiences.

“We built this programme to reach the people actually solving problems in the field and providing them with a platform to share what they are learning within the wider industry. If you have worked through something the industry needs to hear about, this is the platform for it,” Oyelana said.

The organisers said interested professionals must submit abstracts of not more than 500 words by December 18, 2026, through the NOG Energy Week website.

Selected papers will be presented at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre, Abuja, on June 29 and 30, 2027.

The organisers are targeting more than 1,000 submissions for the 2027 edition, which is expected to promote the sharing of practical solutions and emerging technologies to improve efficiency, infrastructure development and performance across the energy industry.
