Bridget Adams Fasingha

Bridget Adams Fasingha is a first-class law graduate of Niger Delta University, Nigeria, with academic and professional interests in corporate and commercial law and the legal frameworks governing the petroleum industry. Her work examines how law and regulation address contemporary challenges arising from the global energy transition.

She gained practical experience through internships at Renaissance Africa Energy Company Ltd. (formerly Shell Petroleum Development Company Ltd.), Aluko & Oyebode, and the Bayelsa State Ministry of Justice, where she worked on litigation strategy, land and tax law, corporate advisory, and dispute resolution. These experiences exposed her to the legal and commercial dimensions of the sector across private practice, government, and industry.

She was the first runner-up of the 2026 Templars Legal Education Endowment Fund, recipient of the NNPC/SEPLAT Scholarship, Federal Government Scholarship, Tibiebiowei Zuofa Foundation Scholarship, and the Pereowei Subai Prize.

Her research interests include energy law and policy, environmental governance, and the legal implications of emerging technologies. Her undergraduate dissertation, An Appraisal of the Decommissioning and Abandonment of Oil and Gas Installations in Nigeria, reflects her interest in developing legal and policy approaches that promote responsible and sustainable petroleum operations.
