They run the best technical conferences in Africa. I mean the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) is amazing. In one which I attended a few years ago, they started without waiting for a minister who was arriving about 20 minutes late. I could not believe that I was in Nigeria. Simply, the oil & gas industry delivers global standards, across core domains, as the high priests of Nigeria’s economy.
Good People, I want to invite you to SPE Young Professionals Symposium. I will do the keynote for this year, and my topic is “Harnessing Nigeria’s Mix – Opportunities for Young Professionals”. Many years ago, as an intern, I worked in Owaza ( Abia state) in Nigerian Gas Company (NNPC) working on the gas flow station supplying gas to Aba Ceramics, etc.
I later moved to Moscow Rd Port Harcourt in NNPC, learning on gas installations in Benin. Later, while in Shell on internship, I lived in Kolo Creek flow station (Bayelsa), piping hydrocarbons with extremely nice world-class engineers in Shell. Then, I took a boat from Ogoni to Ikot Abasi for the gas projects in ALSCON. In those, two things were evident: carbon and hydrogen.
