Opening Ceremony

PS 2: "The Implementation and Impact of the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) 2021 on the Gas Sector to Bridge the Gas Infrastructure Gap."

How well will the PIA implementation help to achieve the overhaul of the Nigerian oil and gas industry to be able to positively affects the development and utilization of natural gas resources for the country? This session on Implementation and Impact of the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) 2021 on the Gas Sector to Bridge the Gas Infrastructure Gap will have legal, regulatory and industry experts review in-dept legal, governance, regulatory and fiscal framework for the Nigerian Petroleum Industry and how these in practical terms will promote economic growth, energy security and environmental sustainability. Are the incentives for gas exploration, production, processing and transportation in the PIA sufficient to achieve its aim of making sure that gas comes to stay as a transition fuel?

WIE Breakfast Session (PS 4): "Roadmap in Creating Gender Equitable Solutions; Build a Resilient and Sustainable Energy Industry."

How can our delebrate and intentional actions on gender equality and women's empowerment contribute to a more sustainable and resilient energy sector? A lot of grounds has been covered and many glass ceilings broken but many areas still remain to be covered and it is a shared responsibility. Leading technocrats in the energy and related industries will share best practices in the aspects of empowerment of women in the full value chain of the energy industry, promoting gender inclusiveness policies, and more. Join this breakfast session to also share your thoughts and shape the future for a more equitable gender balance.

PS 5: "The Potential, Prospects and Financing Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) for Domestic and Regional Markets"

According to a McKinsey report, Nigeria has the largest proven gas reserves in Africa and the ninth-largest in the world, with an estimated 203 trillion cubic feet as at 2021. Nigeria is currently the fifth-largest LNG exporter in the world, with six LNG trains and a total capacity of 22 million tonnes per annum. Nigeria also plans to develop new LNG projects, such as the Nigeria LNG Train 7, the Brass LNG, and the Dangote LNG recently commissioned. The potential for the use of LNG and CNG as cleaner and cheaper alternatives to oil-based fuels for power generation, transportation, and industrial use has been proven. How can Nigeria leverage this abundant natural gas resources to meet its domestic energy demand and expand its regional gas trade? Are policies supportive enough? Financing LNG projects requires a huge amount of capital, how is the nation and the operators going about this? Join this session to hear leading energy industry experts proffer solutions to these challenges.

PS 1: "The Role of Gas in Nigeria's Energy Transition and Decarbonization Agenda."

The Role of Gas in Nigeria's Energy Transition and Decarbonization Agenda relates to Nigeria's plan to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060 while also meeting its energy needs and economic development goals. Speakers at this session will discuss the role of natural gas as a transition fuel that can help establish base load energy capacity, stabilize the grid, and address the clean cooking deficit. Discussions will also focus on the impact of the transition on gas consumption, export, and job creation across different sectors in promoting economic growth and reduction of carbon emissions while continuing to exploit hydrocarbon resources.

PS 3: " The Strategies and Initiatives to Promote Domestic Gas Consumption and Reduce Gas Flaring."

This session on the Strategies and Initiatives to Promote Domestic Gas Consumption and Reduce Gas Flaring will review the effectiveness of current practices and make suggestions on how Nigeria can make use of its abundant natural gas resources for economic development and environmental protection while ensuring and end to routine gas flaring by 2030. How effective is the National Gas Expansion Programme? Has is been able to stimulate the utilization of natural gas in the industrial, power, agricultural and transportation sectors as intended? To what extent has the Nigerian Gas Flare Commercialization Programme been able to attract private sector investment in gas capture and monetization? How adequate and effective has the penalties in the Petroleum Industry Act for gas flaring and venting been and has it encouraged gas utilization for power generation and industrial development as intended? Join leading gas industry practitioners at this session and also have the opportunity to contribute.

PS 6: "Expanding Methanol Production in Africa as an Alternative Energy Source."

Methanol can provide a reliable and affordable source of energy for millions of people who lack access to electricity and clean cooking fuels in Africa. Methanol can be used to power generators, stoves, lamps, and other appliances that can improve the quality of life and reduce health risks from indoor air pollution. The industry experts at this session will discuss the potential of methanol as a versatile and clean fuel, prospects for its production, financing and applications.

PS 7: "The Emerging Trends and Innovations in Gas Technology: Digitalization, Automation, Modularization and Miniaturization"

his session will have experts from different sectors talk about how new technologies that are transforming the gas sector, enhancing its efficiency, flexibility, and sustainability. Major aspects of this discussion will focus on Data, Analytics, to enhance gas capture, storage and distribution. The use of robotics, drones, sensors, and other devices for gas facilities security, and more.
