Audrey Joe-Ezigbo, Chief Executive Officer of Falcon Corporation, one of Nigeria’s leading indigenous gas and energy infrastructure companies, will join top industry leaders and policymakers at the 25th anniversary edition of NOG Energy Week 2026, scheduled to hold from July 5–9, 2026, at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre, Abuja.
Mrs Joe-Ezigbo will participate in a high-level Strategic Panel Session themed: “Realising Future Gas Economies – Building Secure, Integrated and Globally Competitive Hubs.”
Her participation comes at a defining moment for Africa’s gas industry, as governments and private sector players increasingly position natural gas as a critical driver of industrialisation, energy security, regional integration and long-term economic resilience across the continent.
With more than three decades of experience spanning Nigeria’s and the international gas business landscape, Audrey Joe-Ezigbo is expected to bring deep industry insight to conversations around infrastructure development, regional gas integration, investment attraction and the future competitiveness of African gas economies.
As a respected industry advocate and leader, her contributions within major gas sector organisations — including her influential role at the International Gas Union (IGU) — continue to shape discussions around sustainable gas development, practical energy transition pathways and Africa’s industrial growth agenda.
Speaking ahead of NOG Energy Week 2026, Mrs Joe-Ezigbo stressed the importance of collaboration, innovation and integrated infrastructure in unlocking Africa’s future energy potential.
“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.
She further described NOG Energy Week as one of Africa’s most influential energy platforms for advancing practical industry conversations and shaping the continent’s evolving energy future.
“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. I am particularly excited to join fellow industry leaders to explore how we can collectively realise gas-powered 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, Audrey Joe-Ezigbo has played a significant role in building one of Africa’s foremost indigenous midstream and downstream energy companies, with strategic operations spanning natural gas distribution, LPG storage, trading and energy infrastructure development.
Her leadership and contributions to the energy industry have earned her multiple recognitions, including being named among the 100 Outstanding Female Executives in the African Oil & Gas Industry. She also made history as the first female President of the Nigerian Gas Association (NGA), further solidifying her reputation as one of Africa’s leading voices in the gas and energy sector.
NOG Energy Week 2026 is expected to convene leading stakeholders from across the global energy value chain to discuss investment, energy transition, infrastructure expansion, sustainability, local content development and the future of Africa’s evolving energy economy.
