What happened

Well supportedReported by 4 independent outlets

The oil and gas industry in Nigeria is focused on production targets and technical excellence. At the 5th PENGASSAN Energy and Labour Summit in Abuja, TotalEnergies leader Matthieu Bouyer stated that the industry must convert potential into concrete projects to achieve long-term value. Bouyer noted that investors evaluate fiscal terms, regulatory stability, security, and execution timelines before committing funds. Separately, an assessment found that Nigeria's economy is projected to grow by 4.2 per cent in the second half of 2026, driven by higher crude oil production.
