Documentary abstract — original language
This paper examined the topic “Pipelines and Patriarchy: A Comparative Legal Exploration of Women’s Treatment in the Petroleum Sector” through a doctrinal research approach, focusing on Nigeria and the United Kingdom. It explored how legal frameworks, workplace cultures, and institutional practices shaped women’s participation, rights, and protection within the petroleum industry. The background of the paper revealed that while both countries had laws promoting gender equality, structural patriarchy and male-dominated work environments continued to hinder women’s full integration into the sector. The paper found that in Nigeria, weak enforcement of labour and gender laws, discriminatory recruitment patterns, and inadequate maternity protections limited women’s advancement. In contrast, the United Kingdom demonstrated better inclusion through statutory safeguards under the Equality Act 2010 and stronger regulatory oversight, though subtle gender bias still persisted in leadership roles. Major challenges identified included gender stereotyping, limited representation in technical roles, and wage disparities. The paper concluded that bridging gender gaps required not only legal reforms but also institutional accountability and corporate cultural change. It recommended the establishment of gender mainstreaming units within petroleum ministries, enforcement of equal pay laws, mentorship schemes for women engineers, and stronger collaboration with international gender equality initiatives to dismantle entrenched patriarchy in the sector.
