Energy NL-Hibernia Scholarship

Scholarship History

1997 was a big year for the oil & gas industry: the Hibernia project was successfully completed, hauled out to sea, and started drawing oil.  The Energy NL-Hibernia Scholarship Fund was established to commemorate that landmark year.  Presented annually, and designed to foster the bright minds that will shape the future of our industry, the award provides $1,000 to a graduating high school student in Newfoundland and Labrador who is entering post-secondary studies with the intention of pursuing an energy-related career. Applications are reviewed by Energy NL’s selection committee and the award is presented to the applicant who best meets the academic and extra-curricular criteria.


Application Process

If you know of a student graduating from high school in June 2023 and pursuing post-secondary studies in the 2023-2024 academic year, with the goal of a career in the energy industry, please encourage them to apply for this scholarship.
