Oil & Gas

The Independent Petroleum Producers Group, IPPG has unveiled a new logo.
Unveiling the new logo at the Ministerial Welcome dinner of the 8th Nigeria International Energy Summit, NIES, in Abuja on Tuesday, Abdulrazaq Isa, Chairman, IPPG disclosed that the new logo is a testament to its mandate and a reflection of its re-dedicated commitment to the industry and to Nigeria.
He noted that IPPG’s commitment to the renaissance and advancement of the Nigerian oil and gas industry is underpinned by its desire to create an industry that is a source of national pride, enhancing global image and relevance since its establishment about a decade ago
“It is therefore my utmost pleasure to unveil this new logo as we look forward to the path ahead and collaborating for Energy Prosperity,” he said.
The IPPG chairman also used the opportunity to welcome all the foreign dignitaries and partners who have made the journey to Abuja for the 8th NIES.
According to him, this year’s Summit is holding at a very momentous period for the Nigerian oil and gas industry. “The ongoing industry reforms embarked by the government continue to gather momentum and are delivering tangible results. Most notably, the conclusion of the IOC divestments, a worthy achievement marking a defining moment for the industry and nation. Nigerian independents now dominate the prolific onshore and shallow water acreages, with a significant increase in their contributions to the nation’s crude oil and production.
“For IPPG, this transformational shift represents a promising future and an emerging role for the Group.
“I especially welcome the OPEC Secretary General, H.E. Haitham Al Ghais and the Secretary General of African Petroleum Producers Organisation, APPO, Omar Ibrahim. I also would like to acknowledge the presence of the Chairman, OPEC Board of Governors, Ademola Adeyemi-Bero, who also happens to be a Trustee of IPPG and its pioneer chairman.”
Abdulrazaq also commended Senator Heineken Lokpobiri, Minister of State Petroleum Resources (Oil), APPO and African Export-Import Bank l, Afreximbank, for their laudable initiative of establishing the Africa Energy Bank.
“This establishment of the AEB is a victory for the entire continent and symbolises our collective effort to build a prosperous and sustainable energy future for Africa. This will enable the continent to look inward and deepen collaboration in charting a course for meeting its energy needs. We eagerly look forward to the formal take-off of the bank later this year,” he added.
