NLNG has reaffirmed its commitment to building Nigerian capacity through the launch of its Train 7 Project Human Capital Development (HCD) Basic Training Supplementary Programme.
The event, which was held yesterday at the Hotel Presidential, Port Harcourt, was attended by officials from the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB), including the Manager of Human Capital Development, Mrs Tarilate Teide-Bribena, alongside members of the NLNG management team, training facilitators, and the latest cohort of beneficiaries.
In his keynote address, NLNG’s Nigerian Content Development Manager, Dagogo Buowari (FNSE), described the programme as a key milestone in the company’s efforts to meet Nigerian Content targets while equipping young Nigerians with industry-relevant skills.
“This initiative further strengthens NLNG’s role in supporting Nigerian Content development, especially within the ongoing Train 7 Project. We are proud to sustain this momentum in collaboration with the NCDMB, whose visionary support continues to drive human capital development across Nigeria,” Buowari said.
The supplementary programme builds on the existing HCD Basic Training scheme and introduces two distinct training tracks, structured classroom modules and practical field-based experience, designed to equip trainees with both theoretical knowledge and applied technical competence.
Buowari charged the trainees that it’s not just a learning programme, but a launchpad for their professional journey.
“I urge you to commit fully, complete all required modules, and take the certification process seriously. This experience could define your future,” Buowari added.
To support the holistic development of participants, the programme also includes access to healthcare through Reliance HMO, mentorship from seasoned professionals in the oil and gas sector, and wellness services, including counselling and emotional support. Regular performance reviews and career counselling sessions will also be conducted to ensure that each participant’s growth aligns with long-term professional goals.
