The NUPRC’s New Decarbonization Policy: A Game Changer for Nigeria’s Upstream Oil and Gas Sector
The Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) has unveiled a forward-thinking policy designed to enhance decarbonization and sustainability in Nigeria’s upstream oil and gas industry. This bold initiative signals a pivotal moment for the sector, emphasizing the need for operators to integrate comprehensive greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions assessments and prioritize sustainability strategies.
The NUPRC’s new policy represents more than just a regulatory requirement; it’s a transformative opportunity. By embedding GHG emissions assessments into operations, oil and gas companies can align with global environmental standards while driving their sustainability agendas forward. This isn’t just about compliance; it’s about staying competitive in a rapidly evolving global energy landscape.

With extensive experience working alongside leading Nigerian oil and gas companies, we’ve witnessed firsthand how proactive emissions management not only ensures compliance but also delivers significant operational efficiencies. Companies that embrace these practices are not just meeting regulatory standards—they’re setting benchmarks for industry leadership.
Sustainability is no longer optional in the energy sector. It has become a defining factor for investment decisions, global energy partnerships, and long-term profitability. Operators that take proactive steps toward decarbonization are positioning themselves as leaders in the transition to a low-carbon future.
Now is the time for decisive action. By integrating sustainability into core operations, Nigerian oil and gas companies can unlock new opportunities, strengthen their global standing, and contribute to a more sustainable future for the industry.
