Nigerian Afrobeat Artist Spyro to Grace the Stage at African Energy Week (AEW's) Just Energy Transition Concert

 PRESS RELEASE

Nigerian Afrobeat Artist Spyro to Grace the Stage at African Energy Week (AEW's) Just Energy Transition Concert

The African Energy Chamber is proud to announce that Nigerian Afrobeat star Spyro will perform at this year’s Just Energy Transition Concert at the African Energy Week in Cape Town

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, September 8, 2023/ -- Africa’s premier energy event, African Energy Week (AEW) 2023, is nearly upon us, and with it comes the highly anticipated Just Energy Transition Concert. Set to grace its stage is the sensational Nigerian Afrobeats and dancehall superstar, Spyro. Taking place on the eve of AEW 2023 in Cape Town, this extraordinary event blends the realms of music and energy, uniting enthusiasts and industry leaders in a resounding harmony for sustainable development across Africa.

Emerging as a prominent figure in the Afrobeats and dancehall genre, Spyro has captured the global spotlight. Born and bred in Nigeria, Sypro skyrocketed to fame following the release of his chart-topping single, "Billing," in July 2022. His track, "Who is your Guy?" proved to be a game-changer. It soared to the top of Shazam charts and Apple’s Top 10 music charts in several African countries, including Nigeria, Ghana, Sierra Leone, and Gambia.

Spyro’s rise from humble beginnings to global stardom resonates with Africa’s energy industry’s transformative journey, both representing one that reflects the resilience and determination required to achieve success.

“Having Spyro as a performer at AEW’s Just Energy Transition Concert is a testament to the power of art in promoting sustainable energy solutions. His music embodies the vibrancy and dynamism required to drive the energy transition forward,” states NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the African Energy Chamber.

You can still secure your participation at AEW 2023 and grab your ticket for the eagerly awaited AEW 2023 Energy Transition Concert. The Cabo Beach Club in Cape Town will host this fantastic event on October 16, showcasing a robust line-up of headlining artists, including Ruger, Kamo Mphela, DJ Dollar, and more. Don’t miss the chance to join this event and actively participate in Africa’s energy renaissance!

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, September 2, 2023/ -- Likely to represent a 600 trillion cubic feet (tcf) gas market, Nigeria’s investment opportunities in this field are unparalleled, offering foreign financiers and project developers the chance to make high returns while driving the sustainable growth of Nigeria’s energy industry. Under frameworks such as the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) and the Decade of Gas initiative, Nigeria has established itself as a highly attractive investment opportunity.

During the African Energy Week (AEW) 2023 conference and exhibition – taking place at the Cape Town International Convention Center from October 16-20 -, the country’s Minister of State for Gas Hon. Ekperikpe Ekpo will provide insight into the numerous investment opportunities emerging across Nigeria’s gas market. From upstream exploration to downstream processing to distribution and power generation, Hon. Ekpo joins AEW 2023 with the aim of connecting foreign capital with Nigerian gas projects. Hon. Ekpo joins Nigeria’s Minister of State for Oil Sen. Heineken Lokpobiri at the event this October, and will lead sessions such as Invest in Nigeria Energies.  

Nigeria’s strategic position in close proximity to high demand regional markets, largely untapped gas resources and recent regulatory reform agenda have further enhanced its attractiveness as an investment destination. Under the Decade of Gas initiative – an ambitious government program launched in 2021 that aims to advance gas development and utilization by 2030 – the country is paving the way for a series of large-scale project developments. Additionally, in 2022, the government identified 20 critical gas projects under the PIA, all of which require foreign investment to get off the ground.  

Nigeria already represents a major gas player in Africa. In the short term, the African Energy Chamber’s (AEC) Q2, 2023 Outlook, the State of African Energy, shows that the country, alongside Algeria and Egypt, is expected to drive the majority of natural gas supply in Africa (80%). Output is largely driven by the Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) project, which has been operating for 20 years. The project is being expanded with the addition of a seventh train, poised to increase national output from 22 million to 30 million tons per annum by 2027. The project showcases the potential for billion-dollar gas endeavors in Nigeria. However, supply concerns further underscore the need to invest in gas-related exploration.

While Nigeria’s proven natural gas reserves are currently measured at 200 tcf, ongoing exploration efforts are bound to increase this figure to 600 tcf. Upstream projects currently underway include the Okpokunou/Tuomo West Cluster Development; Hi Field; HA field; the Gbaran Nodal Compression project and many more. These developments barely scratch the surface of Nigeria’s upstream gas prospects, however. Downstream, the Decade of Gas initiative places specific focus on gas-related infrastructure, and is poised to unlock new opportunities for regional energy security and sustainable growth. Kicking off with the 614km Ajaokuta-Kaduna-Kano gas pipeline – connecting southern gas fields with central Nigeria – the initiative calls for the development of LNG and Liquefied Petroleum Gas facilities, incentivizing the commercialization of gas flares, the development of gas-based industrial bases and investment into power generation projects. This, in turn, has opened up significant opportunities for foreign investors and project developers. AEW 2023 will connect potential players with the country’s gas opportunities.

“Stepping into the role as Minister of State for Gas in Nigeria, Hon. Ekpo is poised to play an instrumental part in accelerating the pace at which investment is made in the country. His commitment to engaging with regional and foreign players will yield tangible results for the country while his dedication to leveraging policy and public-private partnerships will usher in a new era of project developments in Nigeria’s gas market. Nigeria is well positioned to become the global gas hub of the future, and with the drive of leaders such as Hon. Ekpo, the country is on track to achieve this objective,” states NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the AEC.

During AEW 2023, Hon. Ekpo will engage in and lead various panel discussions and investor forums under efforts to attract new investment to the Nigerian gas market. As the biggest gathering of energy stakeholders on the continent, AEW 2023 plays an integral part in connecting capital with African projects, and with Hon. Ekpo’s participation, Nigeria is set to witness a wave of industry-advancing deals signed.

AEW is the AEC’s interactive exhibition and networking event uniting African energy stakeholders, driving industry growth and development, and promoting Africa as the destination for African-focused events.

H.E. Olusegun Obasanjo to Chair Africa Oil Week 2022

 


Africa Oil Week
PRESS RELEASE


H.E. Olusegun Obasanjo to Chair Africa Oil Week 2022
Strongest presence of Ministers and Government officials – only at Africa Oil Week

Access Multimedia Content

CAPE TOWN, South Africa, August 25, 2022/ -- Africa Oil Week (https://Africa-OilWeek.com) is proud to announce H.E. Olusegun Obasanjo is set to continue his tenure as Chairman of Africa Oil Week for the foreseeable future. The former president of the Republic of Nigeria is continuing as chairman of the leading Oil and Gas event - held in heart of Cape Town to ensure he continues to support regionally. Organised by Hyve Group Plc., Africa Oil Week is the Home of the African Upstream, and this unmissable event will bring leading energy stakeholders together on the 3-7 October in Cape Town under the theme: Sustainable Growth in a Low Carbon World.

Having overseen Nigeria’s transition to a representative democracy, Obasanjo is widely considered as one of the continents major statesmen and leaders over the last 50 years. Obasanjo played a leading role in shaping the modern oil industry in Nigeria, introducing policy reforms which have seen the country become an energy superpower.

“We’re honoured to have H.E. Olusegun Obasanjo as Chairman of Africa Oil Week. He brings incredible gravitas as returning chairman of our event,” said Paul Sinclair, VP of Energy and Director of Government Relations for Africa Oil Week.  His Excellency is a unique person bringing regional understanding and unapparelled experience in developing marketing conditions to support private sector participation in the natural resources sector, it is this experience that helps Africa Oil Week drive success for regional governments and their partners alike.

Obasanjo recently shared his views on Africa’s call for energy security, saying that Africa should be able to take charge of its own energy destiny for the benefit of its people and that it shouldn’t be beholden to the unrealistic ideals of the Global North. It’s for this reason, Africa must follow energy policies that promote socio-economic development, sustainable hydrocarbon use, and, ultimately, take charge of its own energy destiny for the benefit of its people, says Obasanjo.

Echoing Obasanjo’s remarks, Sinclair said, “The energy debate doesn’t have to be polarised. As the world grapples with climate change and the broader transition, oil and gas will be needed and we believe Africa and our continent should be allowed to grow. We advocate the development of our resources and we believe technology and carbon management strategies can do this in respect of the environment – we are not ignoring those who are concerned about the environment, indeed we understand the value of renewable energy. It’s a transition, one that is part of the larger goal and continuous journey to decarbonizing infrastructure and reaching net zero. However, for the foreseeable future, oil and gas are definitely needed as the 151 countries in Glasgow COP work towards their revised NDCs. We echo H.E. Olusegun Obasanjo’s candid support for Africa to take control of its energy future and continue to drive strong global partnerships that will benefit both the continent and its partners via responsible development of natural resources,” Sinclair said.
