Total is today, the only International Oil Company (IOC) that is still active in the downstream sector with more than 550 filling stations nationwide.<\/p>\n<p>On the summit, Terraz said it has shown considerable potential as a destination of choice for oil and gas policy articulation and evaluation; sharing of industry best practices; peer-review of unique solutions to industry challenges; brain storming on the problems yet unsolved; and a melting pot of innovations as well as a forum for discussing emerging global trends that impact the entire oil and gas value chain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis makes the 2019 theme- Shaping the Future through Efficiency and Innovation- apposite. Our industry\u2019s future is one which like other realities of life, is full of uncertainties.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe vicissitudes in the global geo-political terrain, technological innovations within the industry that challenge existing production templates, innovations outside the industry that the industry cannot afford to ignore and which dovetail with demands for alternative sources of energy beyond fossil fuels, concerns for the environment, and the fluctuations in the price of oil, make efficiency in the use of resources, and innovation, a sine qua non.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is, therefore, necessary that we share our best practices and experiences in this gathering to enable us adapt and quickly take actions that will sustain us in the far and immediate future\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<p>Terraz said the Total Group has been present in Africa for more than 90 years and has been involved in exploration activities in Nigeria for 57 years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Managing Director Total E&amp;P, Nicolas Terraz has assured that the Egina Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel will add 200, 000 barrels of oil per day (bpd) to Nigeria\u2019s current production of two million bpd.
