Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company (SNEPCo) has announced Bayo Ojulari as its new Managing Director.
He takes over the mantle of leadership from Tony Attah.
Ojulari’s appointment continues a long-standing tradition which has seen
Nigerians man all the Shell operating units in Nigeria.
As Managing Director of SNEPCo, Bayo will superintend over the operations of a company which pioneered deep-water oil and gas production in Nigeria when it commenced output at the Bonga field in 2005.
The project increased Nigeria’s oil capacity by 10% at the time. At full output, Bonga has the potential to add more than 200,000 barrels of crude oil and 150 million standard cubic feet of gas to Nigeria’s daily production.
Mr. Ojulari is a graduate of Mechanical Engineering with over 24 years of work
experience in Nigeria, Europe, and the Middle East in Process Engineering, Petroleum Engineering, Development, Production Engineering and Health Safety and Environment (HSE) management.
He is a member of the Board of Trustees of the Society of Petroleum Engineers
(SPE), and was SPE Nigeria Council Chairman in 1998/99.
Bayo has written several technical papers and received several awards in the field of engineering and leadership.
