Heirs Energies To Drive Nigeria’s Oil Production Growth

Heirs Energies said it is set to convene industry stakeholders to drive the nation’s oil production growth.

The Company will host the 2025 Heirs Energies Leadership Forum: Industry Leaders Discourse (ILD) in Abuja on February 20, 2025. This high-level convening unites government decision-makers, global energy CEOs, and sector pioneers to forge actionable strategies for accelerating Nigeria’s oil production growth.

The forum, themed ‘Nigeria’s Oil Production Growth Roadmap – Acceleration Imperatives’, will feature distinguished speakers, including Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Oil), Sen. Heineken Lokpobiri; chief commission executive, NUPRC, Engr. Gbenga Komolafe; chairman, OPEC Board of Governors and CEO of First E&P, Adewale Adeyemo-Bero; and CEO of Seplat Energy Plc, Roger Brown. The session will be moderated by the CEO of Heirs Energies, Osayande Igiehon.

Heirs Energies said, “With Nigeria targeting oil production of 2.1 million barrels per day (bpd) by 2025 and 2.7 million bpd by 2027, the discussion will address critical industry challenges while exploring opportunities for innovation and local industry leadership.

“The increasing role of Nigerian Independent Companies (NICs) in the sector will be a focal point, particularly as asset ownership transitions from International Oil Companies (IOCs) to local operators.”

The CEO of Heirs Energies, Osayande Igiehon, said, “Nigeria’s energy future cannot wait, and through bold collaboration, we can transform challenges into opportunities, ramping up production, attracting investment, and powering sustainable development.”

Heirs Energies continues to champion operational excellence, innovation, and local capacity development in Africa’s energy sector, driving energy sufficiency and economic transformation across the continent.
