Eni’s subsidiary, Nigerian Agip Exploration Limited (NAE), on behalf of NNPC Limited and the NAE PSC, awarded scholarships to 30 Nigerian graduates for postgraduate studies in Nigerian and overseas universities under its 2025/2026 Scholarship Awards Scheme.
Ten beneficiaries secured placements in various universities abroad. At the same time, the remaining awardees were assigned to Nigerian institutions to pursue postgraduate studies in disciplines including Engineering, Geosciences, Petroleum and Environmental Technology, Energy Economics, Renewable Energy, and Energy Transition.
During the award ceremony in Abuja, the Vice Chairman and Managing Director of NAE, Mr Fabrizio Bolondi, congratulated the recipients.
He noted that the scholarship would enable them to pursue their dreams and achieve career goals. “The award ceremony highlights our continuous commitment to the future of education, innovation, and capacity building in Nigeria,” he stated.
Bolondi urged the beneficiaries to maximise the opportunity and develop skills that will contribute to national growth, particularly in the energy sector.
The postgraduate scholarship scheme, introduced by NNPC-NAE PSC partners in 2007, is part of the company’s human capital development initiative to promote knowledge acquisition and close the skills gap in specialised fields relevant to Nigeria’s deep offshore oil and gas operations. To date, 350 graduates have benefited from the scheme.
