The Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission highlights a significant skills gap in Nigeria's oil sector caused by a steep decline in offshore investments from $26 billion in 2014 to $2 billion in 2023, emphasising the urgent need to develop digital and advanced technical competencies to revive production targets by 2030.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Energy Storage.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a narrowing window to embed advanced digital and subsurface skills as Nigeria seeks to boost offshore output. Start building talent pipelines aligned with digital exploration or risk missing the offshore revival underway.
