Nigeria’s oil and gas assets are aging, corrosion is rising, and unplanned shutdowns are costing millions. With stricter regulations under the PIA and growing pressure on operators to improve safety, performance, and compliance, the industry is at a turning point.
Most companies lack the systems, technology, or skilled workforce to manage asset integrity effectively.
"The Asset Integrity & Corrosion Management Conference, Nigeria 2026 arrives at a critical moment..."Bringing together regulators, operators, EPCs, and solution providers, this event delivers real strategies to extend asset life, prevent failures, and stay ahead of compliance. From corrosion control to predictive maintenance, this conference provides the tools and insights Nigeria’s energy industry needs right now.
