The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) and the Nigerian Institute of Petroleum and Gas Engineers (NIPetGE) are discussing new strategies to align the country's oil and gas sector with global energy transition goals. Key proposals include the creation of a national emission trading framework to integrate Nigeria into global carbon markets. Additional recommendations focus on establishing carbon capture hubs and implementing measurable upstream decarbonization milestones supported by tax credits. The plan also suggests using AI and robotics to improve efficiency and reduce emissions across the hydrocarbon value chain.
