The awaiting inaugural West African International Petroleum Conference and Exhibition, WAIPEC, opened doors to delegates and visitors today with a two-day first-class conference programme and exhibition, specifically developed to provide real value and insight for delegates and visitors from across the industry.
The conference programme, according to the organisers, is expected to focus on unlocking strategic value, leveraging innovation, best practices and technology to grow West Africa’s energy industry, with specific discussions on how West Africa’s oil and gas sector can remain competitive in a tough global market.
After the opening address, proceedings will begin today with a key note speech from General Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Coporation, NNPC, Dr. Maikanti Baru, covering ‘Collaboration and local capacity development as an enduring strategy in a low oil price environment.’
This will be followed closely with
an expert panel discussion, further exploring the area, featuring top
businessmen and women in the country.
The proceedings will then close with
further discussion on innovation and best practices across the sector,
including in the areas of upstream oil and gas development.
