Our Journey

From Service Roots to Deepwater Operator

A decade of capability-building, culminating in two world-class deepwater licences and a development program designed for responsible growth.

2010 — Service Foundations

Applefield’s roots began with Adonai Tru-Mile Energy, an oilfield services and logistics provider supporting drilling, marine operations, and environmental management in Nigeria’s upstream sector.

2013 — Expanding Through Partnerships:

2016 — Building Scale with MegaDrill:

Entered into collaboration with MegaDrill, providing high-spec drilling support and expanding our service footprint in Nigeria’s offshore oilfields.

2020 — Strategic Shift to Upstream:

Consolidated expertise from service operations and began positioning for vertical integration into exploration and production (E&P).

2023 — Formation of Applefield Oil and Gas:

Applefield formally established Applefield Oil and Gas and its E&P subsidiary, laying the foundation to transition from services to a full upstream operator and partner.

2024 — Deepwater Awards:

Awarded two prolific deepwater blocks, PPL 2005 & PPL 3017 (~1,887 sq. km), cementing our role as part of Nigeria’s next generation of indigenous deepwater operators.

2025 — Project Preparation:

Launched seismic re-acquisition, FEED design, and technical partner engagements to progress toward development.

2026–2028 — Field Development:

Execution of appraisal drilling, subsea and FPSO construction, ESIA studies, and host community development programs.

2029 — First Oil:

Targeted first oil, with plateau production forecast at ~140,000 bopd across both developments.

Future — Scaling Africa:

Growth vision includes expanding into frontier African basins and leading in low-carbon and transition-aligned energy solutions.
