The Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) has promised to collaborate with the two oil and gas industry unions, Petroleum and natural gas Senior staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) and the National union of Petroleum and natural gas workers (NUPENG) for industrial harmony and smooth operations of the sector.

He stated that the objective of the collaboration was to foster appropriate synergy to enable smooth operations in overriding national interest.

He reiterated that since his assumption of office, staff welfare has been his cardinal focus and that was the reason he immediately implemented the promotion of staff who had been stagnated over the years to motivate and promote industrial harmony. 

He promised that as part and parcel of the union he will continue to promote equity   in the affairs of the Commission and in accordance with the Petroleum industry Act (PIA) 2021

The Visiting team while congratulating the CCE on his appointment assured him of their readiness to collaborate with the Commission in all areas of oil and gas industry operations as a major stakeholder.
