The Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB) is set to host over 1,000 delegates at the 5th Nigerian Oil and Gas Opportunity Fair (NOGOF) 2025, scheduled for May 20–22 at the Nigerian Content Tower (NCT) in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State.

Organized in collaboration with Jake Riley, the biennial event serves as a premier platform to unveil upcoming projects across the oil and gas value chain—upstream, midstream, and downstream—while boosting investment and advancing local content.

“This year’s edition is shaping up to be our most impactful yet,” said an NCDMB representative. “We’re expecting a vibrant mix of federal ministers, top regulators, CEOs from both international and indigenous oil companies, and key service providers.”

More than 50 companies are expected to mount exhibition stands showcasing new innovations, manufacturing solutions, and research efforts in the sector.

The event will also feature technical workshops, engaging panel sessions, and strategic networking opportunities.A major highlight of NOGOF 2025 will be the inaugural Champions of Nigerian Content Awards, which will take place on May 21.

The awards aim to recognize individuals and organizations that have made exceptional contributions to local content development in Nigeria’s oil and gas industry.

“These awards are about celebrating true commitment to Nigerian content,” organizers said. “They reflect the values and vision of the oil and gas community in driving economic growth through local participation.”

Over 25 industry experts will deliver exclusive presentations on new opportunities, with sponsors including Chevron, Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company (SNEPCo), Nigeria LNG, Coleman Wires and Cables, Dorman Long Engineering, and several other key players backing the event.

Since its inception in 2017, NOGOF has steadily grown into a cornerstone event for industry leaders and innovators alike.
