Mr. Aveek Binkam Biswas, Head of Corporate Communications at Sterling Oil Exploration and Energy Production Company Ltd. (SEEPCO), has reiterated the company’s commitment to deepening the application of digital innovation across its operations, in support of Nigeria’s ongoing energy transformation.
Biswas made this known while receiving an Award of Sponsorship Appreciation from the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) Chapel, during the 2025 NUJ-NAN Press Week Lecture/Symposium held on Thursday in Lagos.
Commending the NUJ-NAN Chapel for successfully organizing the event themed “Transforming Energy: The Digital Evolution of Oil and Gas,” Biswas emphasized SEEPCO’s dedication to fostering innovation, technology, and sustainability in the energy sector.
“We are honoured to have participated in this important gathering, which reflects our shared commitment to advancing conversations around innovation, technology, and sustainability within Nigeria’s energy sector,” he said.
Highlighting the company’s strides in digital transformation, Biswas noted that SEEPCO has deployed several technology-driven platforms, including:
A real-time digital incident reporting system
A Digital Unsafe Act and Unsafe Condition (UAUC) reporting tool
A Safety Observation Reporting Tracking (SORT) system
A streamlined e-Permit to Work (PTW) system
“These platforms are designed to enhance transparency, improve compliance, and enable timely responsiveness throughout our operations,” he explained.
Biswas further noted that these initiatives are part of SEEPCO’s broader strategy to conduct responsible oil and gas exploration and production, aligned with Nigeria’s economic goals and global industry standards.
“While we take pride in these achievements, we also recognize that our journey is ongoing. Events like this reinforce the importance of collaboration—between industry, media, and society—to drive technological innovation that enhances safety, efficiency, and sustainability,” he added.
He acknowledged the critical role of the media as a strategic partner in shaping accurate and constructive narratives around Nigeria’s oil and gas industry.
According to him, continued collaboration with stakeholders such as the NUJ-NAN Chapel will help sustain dialogue and action toward a more innovative and sustainable energy future for the country.
