Nigerian Agip Exploration Limited Grants 30 Scholarships
Nigerian Agip Exploration Limited (NAE), a subsidiary of Eni, awarded 30 scholarships to Nigerian graduates for postgraduate studies under its 2026/2027 Scholarship Awards Scheme. The selection was made from over 3000 applicants based on academic excellence and performance in a recent computer-based test.
Mr. Maurizio Pinna, Vice Chairman and Managing Director of NAE, stated that the initiative supports human capital development and provides opportunities for young Nigerians to acquire skills relevant to the Oil and Gas industry. Ten beneficiaries will study abroad at institutions such as Imperial College, London, and Newcastle University, while the remaining will pursue studies in Nigerian universities in fields like Engineering and Energy Economics.
This scholarship scheme, initiated by NNPC-NAE PSC partners in 2007, aims to bridge the skills gap in specialized areas pertinent to deep offshore Oil and Gas operations in Nigeria.
