Nogaholding was established in August 2007 as a subsidiary unit of NOGA. Nogaholding was intended to concentrate and refocus NOGA's oil, gas, and petrochemical development activities.[2]
NOGA was abolished in September 2021, and all its activities, responsibilities, and personnel were transferred to Bahrain's Ministry of Oil. Nogaholding became a semi-independent agency within the Ministry of Oil.[3]
