Regulators and Oil Majors Meet in Lagos for Hydrocarbon Measurement Forum

Key stakeholders across Nigeria's energy sector are convening in Lagos for the sixth edition of industry talks on hydrocarbon measurement. The high-level gathering brings together the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority, NNPC Limited, and international oil companies.

In addition to the primary regulators and state energy firm, the event attracts major oil and gas producers, fiscal institutions, and measurement technology providers from around the world. Discussions are centred on advancing fiscal accountability, standardising volume determination, and deploying modern measurement equipment across the petroleum value chain.

For offshore contractors, vessel operators, and technical procurement teams, regulatory scrutiny on hydrocarbon measurement reinforces the need for certified instrumentation and calibrated transfer systems. Sourcing compliant metering technologies and maintaining documented equipment standards will be vital for maritime and production support operations in Nigerian waters.
