The NAE Postgraduate Scholarship Scheme was launched in 2007 as a human capital development initiative. Designed to bridge the skills gap in disciplines critical to Nigeria’s deep offshore oil and gas operations, the program has supported over 350 Nigerian graduates to date.
Beyond education, Eni—through NAE—has been active in sustainability and community development initiatives across Nigeria. These include projects in healthcare, education, water access, infrastructure development, and stakeholder empowerment in host communities.
Established in 1996, NAE manages Eni’s deep offshore exploration and production assets in Nigeria. It was the first oil and gas company to commence deep offshore production in the country and currently holds interests in six offshore blocks, operating either as a lead operator or co-venturer.
Eni’s operations in Nigeria also extend through Agip Energy and Natural Resources (AENR) and its equity participation in key assets such as the Renaissance Joint Venture, OML 135 and 118 (Bonga field), and Nigerian LNG.
