Nigeria’s foremost international energy conference, NOG, has announced that the 22nd edition of its annual Energy Week, scheduled to take place from 9th – 13th July 2023, with the theme “Powering Nigeria’s Sustainable Energy Future”, will run at the International Conference Centre (ICC), Abuja FCT, Nigeria. As West Africa’s largest conference and exhibition serving the international oil, gas, LNG and energy sector in Nigeria, the meeting brings policy makers, regulators and private sector leaders together to discuss Nigeria’s critical energy agenda.

Ahead of the official opening of the conference, Wemimo Oyelana, Country Director, dmg Nigeria events said, “NOG Energy Week is committed to fostering the conversations that ensure Nigeria makes the best use of it’s natural resources for socio-economic development. In light of this, the theme for this year’s edition came from our research at this critical time of energy transition.

With a proven record of serving the Nigerian energy industry for the past two decades, we look forward to once again creating a platform that facilitates multilateral dialogue, advances multistakeholder engagement and enables critical deal making for many more decades to come.’’
