Renaissance Energy Lifts Output, Targets Stronger Industry Alliances
Renaissance Africa Energy Company has increased oil production by 40% in four months, met its gas delivery obligations for the first time in five years, and called for deeper industry collaboration during the NAICE 2025 conference in Lagos.
Production Surge Hits Government Target
Renaissance Energy, one of Nigeria’s largest upstream operators, announced a sharp increase in oil output, aligning with the Federal Government’s 2.06 million barrels per day (bpd) target.
Speaking at the Society of Petroleum Engineers’ Nigeria Annual International Conference and Exhibition (NAICE), the company said production growth also enabled it to resume gas supplies to the Nigerian Liquefied Natural Gas Limited (NLNG).
“For the first time in five years, we’re delivering gas to NLNG. That’s a major milestone,” said Abdulrahman Mijinyawa, Renaissance’s Chief Technical Officer, who represented Managing Director Tony Attah at the event.
Push for Strategic Partnerships
Attah called on oil and gas players to prioritise collaboration, stating it is the fastest route to unlocking Nigeria’s vast energy potential and building investor confidence.
“Nigeria must move from rhetoric to results,” said Attah. “We are collaborating with NNPC Ltd., TotalEnergies, Agip Energy, and AENR to drive value creation and make the sector more attractive.”
He added that partnerships will not only boost production but also support technology transfer, capacity development, and national energy security.
Energy for Industrial Growth
The company restated its commitment to job creation and sustainable industrialisation in Nigeria. It also pledged support for energy access across Africa.
“This is about more than barrels,” Mijinyawa said. “It’s about industrialisation, jobs, and resilience. Energy must fuel development.”
NAICE as Catalyst for Change
Attah described the NAICE conference as a key platform to address challenges facing the sector, including fluctuating investment, regulatory bottlenecks, and the global energy transition.
“This gathering is more than symbolic,” he said. “It’s where change begins.”
The company encouraged stakeholders to take bold steps toward creating a competitive, climate-conscious, and future-ready energy landscape in Nigeria.
