As global markets evolve and energy producers seek resilient, localised supply chains, Nigeria’s growing local content capacity continues to position itself as a model for sustainable growth across the continent.
The recent inauguration of Nigeria’s first indigenous crude export terminal, a $400 million facility commissioned by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, further underscored the country’s growing capacity for self-sufficiency and investment-led industrialisation.
The milestone aligns with the Federal Government’s newly introduced Nigeria First Policy, a directive that prioritises the use of locally made goods and services across sectors, reinforcing the country’s commitment to homegrown value creation and inclusive industrial development.
The 14th edition of the Practical Nigerian Content (PNC) Forum, themed ‘Securing Investments, Strengthening Local Content, and Scaling Energy Production,’ is positioned to build on these advancements.
The event will take place from December 1-4, 2025, in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State. The forum will convene regional policymakers, global investors, regulators and indigenous operators to explore, as a follow-up to the Nigeria First Policy above, strategies to replicate local content implementation and capacity development across sectors..
