The 2026 NOG Energy Week is providing stakeholders and industry operators a rare opportunity to discuss Nigeria’s emerging gas industry growth trajectory and its potential as an energy destination.
The event is convening a speaking session to discuss the country’s gas future during a Strategic Panel Session to dissect the theme, “Realising Future Gas Economies – Building Secure, Integrated and Globally Competitive Hubs”.
Audrey Joe-Ezigbo, CEO of Falcon Corporations, has been selected by the event organisers for the 25th-anniversary edition of Energy Week in Abuja, from July 5th–9th, 2026, to join other industry leaders and share industry knowledge during the Session.
The CEO’s participation comes at a pivotal moment for Africa’s gas sector, as nations increasingly position Natural Gas as a strategic enabler of industrial growth, energy access, regional integration, and economic resilience.
Her voice on the panel is expected to bring deep industry insight shaped by over three decades of immersive experience across the local and international gas business landscape.
Audrey’s leadership of gas associations and her distinguished advocacy role at the International Gas Union (IGU) underscore her commitment to shaping practical pathways for a gas-led industrial revolution, fostering energy security and unlocking regional competitiveness across the continent.
Speaking ahead of the conference, she emphasised the importance of collaboration and innovation in shaping the continent’s future energy economy.
“The conversation is no longer simply about resource abundance but how effectively we can build integrated gas ecosystems that stimulate industrial growth, deepen regional collaboration, attract long-term investment, and create sustainable value for our people”, she said.
“NOG Energy Week remains one of the most meaningful platforms for shaping conversations on infrastructure expansion, advancing local participation, and delivering practical energy solutions tailored to Africa’s realities, and I am particularly excited to join fellow industry leaders to explore how we can collectively realise gas-energized economies that are secure, resilient, commercially competitive, and capable of unlocking long-term prosperity across the continent”, she added.
As CEO and co-founder of Falcon Corporation, Mrs Audrey Joe-Ezigbo has been instrumental in building one of Africa’s leading indigenous midstream and downstream energy companies, with strategic interests spanning Natural Gas distribution and LPG storage and trading.
Her contributions have earned her several prestigious recognitions, including recognition among the 100 Outstanding Female Executives in the African Oil & Gas Industry, and her historic emergence as the first female President of the Nigerian Gas Association.
