Oriental News Nigeria convened its 2026 conference under the theme “Carbon Capture.” The brief was not a packed agenda for its own sake. It was a working room where the industry case for capture, storage, and the policy path around it could be heard, tested in public, and carried forward by people who report and decide.

Cettle shaped the narrative arc of the day: who needed to be in the room, how the sessions built one argument rather than a sequence of slides, and how speakers were briefed so the conversation held under live questions instead of collapsing into talking points.

The result was a conference that treated carbon capture as a commercial and policy problem, not a slogan — a convening Oriental News and its partners can still point to when the next room asks what a serious energy conversation looks like.
