ts been over four years now since the Nigerian Oil
and Gas Industry Content (NOGIC) Act was passed
into law with the assent of Dr. Goodluck Ebele IJonathan, Nigeria's President, on April 22nd 2010. No
doubt, alot has happened afterwards, testimonies abound,
we see a lot of indigenous participation in the industry
today, Nigerian companies now own and operate vessels
etc.
Indeed many have applauded the performance of the
Nigerian Content Act, for its transformational impact on
the industry. According to reports, the policy has attracted
investments worth more than $5 billion from indigenous
companies, but it is not without challenges, Pita Ochai
examines the performances amid challenges in the last
four years.
We'd like to introduce our Guest Columnist for this
edition, Mr. Ritch Wingo. He is the Director, Oil and Gas
Advisory for PwC (Price Waterhouse Coopers), based in
Lagos, Nigeria. PwC Globally when it comes to Oil and
Gas Advisory is number one among the BIG 4 consulting
firms. Ritch has been living and working in Nigeria since
2008 and has been working very closely with Oil and Gas
Indigenous Companies in West Africa. Thus he has
joined the Orient Energy Review family, in lending his
voice and skill to promote indigenous growth and
development in the Nigerian Oil and Gas sector.

very informative reports on Local content and some gist
around the industry.
