In a country rich in gas but often poor in reliable energy, ten Nigerian firms have been tapped to help change the narrative. The Federal Government has signed joint venture deals to build processing plants, CNG refuelling stations, and LPG facilities — a bold bet on domestic capacity and environmental reform under the 'Decade of Gas' strategy.
The freshly inked partnerships reflect Nigeria’s attempt to move from gas potential to gas reality — with local firms at the centre.
- Ten indigenous companies signed joint venture deals with the FG under the Midstream and Downstream Gas Infrastructure Fund.
- Projects include 6 gas processing plants, 3 CNG stations, and 1 bulk LPG storage facility.
- Two plants will process flare gas, reducing harmful emissions.
- Agreements align with Tinubu’s 'Decade of Gas' drive for domestic energy growth.
- Officials say the reform builds on recent strides in local refining and gas monetisation.
