Shettima Commissions New Northwest Petroleum Headquarters as Nigeria Seeks Greater Indigenous Energy Investment LAGOS, Nigeria โ Nigeriaโs Vice President Kashim Shettima has commissioned the new corporate headquarters of Northwest Petroleum & Gas Company Limited in Lagos, highlighting the companyโs investment as a sign of growing indigenous participation in the countryโs oil and gas industry. Shettima commissioned the ultra-modern facility in Victoria Island on Friday, saying the new headquarters reflects Northwest Petroleumโs ambitions to strengthen its operations and remain competitive in an evolving global energy market. The Vice President said the facility would provide a modern platform for collaboration among the companyโs employees, business partners and other stakeholders, while supporting the companyโs long-term growth. He described the headquarters as an important expansion for Northwest Petroleum, an indigenous operator in Nigeriaโs downstream petroleum sector, saying the investment sends a message to investors and clients about the companyโs commitment to its operations in Nigeria. According to Shettima, the development also demonstrates the role that indigenous companies can play in expanding private-sector capacity within Nigeriaโs energy industry. The commissioning comes as Nigeria continues to seek greater investment and stronger domestic participation across its oil and gas value chain, amid efforts to position the sector for a changing global energy landscape. The new headquarters is expected to serve as the companyโs corporate base as Northwest Petroleum continues to develop its business and engage with stakeholders across Nigeriaโs petroleum and gas industry.
