IOGP welcomes Renaissance Energy

IOGP is delighted to welcome Renaissance Africa Energy Company Ltd to the Association.

Renaissance Africa Energy Company Limited is a consortium, uniting four independent Nigerian and an international company. Its asset portfolio encompasses diverse operational environments, including onshore fields, swamp terrains, and shallow water locations in parts of the Niger Delta, plus two onshore oil export terminals – the Bonny and Forcados Yokri crude export terminals – and the Sea Eagle Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading vessel.

“I am delighted to welcome Renaissance Africa Energy Company to IOGP”, said Graham Henley, IOGP CEO.  Having worked in Nigeria some years ago, I understand both their challenges but also the tremendous expertise and insights that they have to share.  “I look forward to welcoming Renaissance Africa Energy Company to our committees and subcommittees soon.”

Speaking on Renaissance membership of the IOGP, the Managing Director and CEO of Renaissance, Mr. Tony Attah said, “We are very glad to have become a member company of the IOGP, barely 5 months since we completed the acquisition of Shell shares in the defunct Shell Petroleum Development Company. This is another milestone in our strategy to unleash a new beginning that enables energy security and industrialisation in a sustainable manner.”

Attah said, “Renaissance is poised to set a standard for the oil and gas industry in Nigeria and across the continent. And we are glad that we have such a credible collaboration in IOGP.”

Attah enjoined other stakeholders in Nigeria oil and gas industry to emulate the vision and courage of Renaissance and to be in sync with global standards as represented by IOGP.

Renaissance’s General Manager Safety and Environment and the company’s Representative to IOGP, Engineer Elozino Olaniyan, expressed excitement at the achievement.

“This is a very important endorsement of the high standards that Renaissance has started its operations with. We are delighted as it highlights our commitment to operate in line with global best practices across the entire value chain of our operations,” she said.
