Adelaar Energy Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Grace Orife Joins African Energy Week (AEW) 2025 to Discuss African Energy Solutions
Grace Orife, CEO of oil and gas consultancy and services company Adelaar Energy Limited, has joined this year's edition of the African Energy Week (AEW): Invest in African Energies conference as a speaker. Taking place September 29 to October 3 in Cape Town, AEW: Invest in African Energies represents the premier meeting platform for the continent's energy industry, convening stakeholders from upstream operators to downstream project developers to service providers, technology experts and policymakers. As the CEO of a full-stream oil and gas consultancy, Orife offers a unique perspective into Africa's energy landscape. Adelaar Energy – headquartered in Nigeria – offers a variety of services that support oil and gas projects across Africa. These include engineering, procurement, construction and implementation solutions, as well as alternative energy products. By working closely with upstream operators, the company strives to enhance production in the country, in line with Nigeria's goals of reaching 2.5 million barrels per day in the coming years. At AEW: Invest in African Energies 2025, Orife is expected to share insights into the role innovative energy solutions play in supporting Africa's production targets. AEW: Invest in African Energies is the platform of choice for project operators, financiers, technology providers and government, and has emerged as the official place to sign deals in African energy. Visit for more information about this exciting event. As one of the continent's biggest oil producer, Nigeria is working to address production decline by advancing exploration projects as well as efforts to maximize output at active fields. The country is witnessing greater spending across its upstream market, with leading international operators targeting new drilling and development campaigns. Notably, ExxonMobil is investing $1.5 billion to revitalize the Usan deepwater oilfield in offshore Block OML 138, with a final investment decision expected in 2025. Shell's Nigerian subsidiary SNEPCo is spearheading the $5 billion Conga North project, while TotalEnergies and the Nigerian National Petroleum Company are driving a $550 million non-associated gas project. With the country seeking to unlock $30 billion in oil and $5 billion in gas investments by 2029, a strong pipeline of projects is on the horizon for Nigeria. Amid these developments, services offered by companies such as Adelaar Energy will not only support operations but ensure projects align with Nigeria's broader goals of reducing emissions, enhancing output and delivering impactful energy to West Africa. Orife's participation at AEW: Invest in African Energies reflects a commitment to supporting African production and is expected to create new pathways for industry collaboration. 'To meet its production goals, Africa requires innovation and collaboration – particularly between operators and service providers. Companies such as Adelaar Energy stand at the intersection of the continent's oil, gas and energy industries, supporting projects through technology-driven solutions. As Africa strives to make energy poverty history, these solutions will prove highly valuable as countries balance operational efficiency with sustainability,' states Tomás C. Gerbasio, Strategy and Business Development Director of the African Energy Chamber. Distributed by APO Group on behalf of African Energy Chamber.

SEWA to enhance water security in Sharjah via strategic projects worth $1.09bln
The Sharjah Electricity, Water, and Gas Authority (SEWA) is actively working on several key projects, including the Al Hamriyah Independent Water Desalination Plant, which can produce up to 90 million gallons of water daily. Engineer Faisal Al Serkal, who leads the Water Department at SEWA, stated that the authority is developing several key projects. These include three pumping stations and nine water storage reservoirs that will hold a total of 180 million gallons. These facilities will be located in the areas of Al Zubair, Al Badi', and Al Burair. Additionally, SEWA is constructing main water pipelines that stretch approximately 245 kilometres. Altogether, these projects will cost around AED4 billion and will help improve the water supply system in Sharjah, ensuring that treated water can be effectively delivered to Sharjah and the Central Region. One specific project that has already begun is the construction of a major water pipeline connecting Al Houma to Al Falaj station. This pipeline will be 1,600 mm in diameter and 8 km long, with an estimated cost of around AED105.5 million. It is expected to be finished by the end of this year. This pipeline is part of a larger network of transmission lines that, when completed, will stretch 77 km from Al Hamriyah plant to Al Falaj station, costing around AED645 million. Contractors are already on board to carry out the work for the reservoirs and pumping stations. The individual costs for the projects at Al Zubair, Al Badi', and Al Burair are estimated at AED505 million, AED460 million, and AED446.85 million, respectively. The entire project is set to be completed by the third quarter of 2027.
