The Nigerian Content Academy (NCA) is set to host its 4th Lecture Series on Wednesday, October 29, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., in a virtual session designed to empower industry stakeholders across Nigeria’s oil and gas sector.
Themed “Indigenous Operators as the Pillar for Local Content Growth,” the lecture will feature Dr. Austin Avuru, Non-Executive Director of NNPCL, who will share insights on how homegrown operators can lead Nigeria’s energy transformation.
“Indigenous operators are not just participants; they are the backbone of Nigeria’s local content agenda. Their growth drives jobs, innovation, and long-term industry sustainability,” Dr. Avuru said ahead of the lecture.
The NCA Lecture Series has become a flagship platform for professional development, knowledge sharing, and policy dialogue. Previous editions highlighted strategies to scale Nigerian companies, foster innovation, and strengthen collaboration between operators and regulators.
“Our goal is to equip local operators with the tools, strategies, and networks they need to thrive in a competitive global market,” said an NCA spokesperson.
This year’s session promises actionable insights, real-world case studies, and expert strategies for overcoming operational, technical, and financial challenges faced by indigenous operators. Attendees can expect to leave with a clear understanding of how local expertise can be leveraged to achieve sustainable growth and industry self-reliance.
The lecture also aligns with Nigeria’s broader objective of strengthening local content, creating employment, and boosting economic resilience. The virtual format ensures professionals from all corners of Nigeria—and beyond—can participate, interact, and benefit from the discussion.
“By putting indigenous operators at the forefront, we are ensuring that Nigeria’s energy future is homegrown, innovative, and globally competitive,” Dr. Avuru emphasized.
The NCA 4th Lecture Series is not just an event—it’s a call to action for Nigeria’s energy sector, highlighting the role of local talent and operators in building a sustainable, resilient, and thriving industry.
