Artificial Intelligence

<p>Nigerian authorities tend to use the latest technologies, namely artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), in the struggle against the widespread problem of oil pipeline leakages and theft. The Ministry of Petroleum Resources was at the forefront in bringing together the various stakeholders at a one-day engagement held in Abuja to promote the integration of these innovative technologies into the National Petroleum Policy (NPP).</p>

<p>This event, themed “Incorporation of Machine Learning &amp; Artificial Intelligence in Nigeria’s Petroleum Policy,”showcased the ability of AI &amp; ML to transform operations within the oil &amp; gas industry of Nigeria. Speaking at the ceremony, Permanent Secretary of Ministry of Petroleum Resources Mr Nicholas Agbo Ella, underlined the importance of applying AI to complex problems similar to human logic and reasoning.</p>
<p>One of the key reasons behind considering AI and ML technologies in this project is that they can help curb the security menace that has besieged the oil and gas facilities in Nigeria. Through these technologies, stakeholders’ attempt is to achieve an improved efficiency through supply chain optimization, process refinement and safety enhancement in operations. Mohammed Abubakar, the director of the midstream and downstream departments in the ministry, highlighted that AI and ML have the capacity to improve operations and reduce security breaches.</p>

<p>With the involvement of stakeholders, representatives from such entities as MPR, NNPCL, NMDPRA, NUPRC, and FUT Minna were gathered together as well. Collaborative efforts contemplated AI and ML tools to use within the NPP, ensuring their seamless integration with the purpose of improving the efficiency and security of the petroleum industry.</p>
<p>The implementation of AI and ML methods in the Nigerian oil and gas sector is the next milestone toward the goal of better and safer operations in the industry. The incorporation of smart machines and systems of robotic decision-making will aid the resolution of persistent issues like pipeline vandalism and oil furnaces. Africa’s steady adoption of technology is seen in the deployment of artificial intelligence and machine learning in the non-proliferation protocol which symbolizes an agile approach to protecting vital infrastructure and better system performance in the gas and oil business.</p>
<p>As a highlight of this discussion, the new National Petroleum Policy, which encompasses AI and ML, instigates a monumental shift in Nigeria’s petroleum sector towards a more resilient and technologically advanced one. Through the creation of teams among the main concerned stakeholders, the government illustrates the passion for handling long-term problems and also shows clear keenness in green energy technologies that make future generations’ lives better. As the country sets out to undertake this transformative journey, many hands will be needed to mark the catalyst for a fresh period of security, efficiency, and prosperity in Nigeria’s oil and gas industry.</p>
