Chevron Nigeria Ltd. has restated commitment to its partnership with Nigeria in ensuring safe, reliable, and efficient operations in the country.
Chevron’s General Manager, Policy, Government and Public Affairs, Mr Esimaje Brikinn, made this known in a statement on Friday.
Brikinn said also that the company remained committed to delivering affordable, reliable, ever cleaner energy supply that was critical to the development of the Nigerian economy.
“At Chevron, we believe oil and gas will remain a viable component of the energy mix.
“The company believes that the future of energy is lower carbon even as it continues to add incremental volumes to its oil production, and support gas development in a clean manner, “ he said.
The manager said that over the years, Chevron had encouraged the participation of Nigerian companies in the oil and gas industry.
He said that the company, working with the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board, continued to foster competence and competitiveness among Nigerian indigenous contractors and suppliers.
According to him, the company does this by adopting the participatory-partnership model.
“Chevron Nigeria believes that by investing in local communities, we can create a sustainable future for all.
“Our local content strategy is focused on three key pillars: capacity building (training, mentoring among others), local procurement, and social investment (community development projects mainly in health, education and economic development), “ he said.
Recently , the company was awarded the Best Exhibitor award at the 2024 edition of the Nigerian Oil and Gas Energy Week conferences and exhibition held on July 3 in Abuja.
