Increasing Gas Development Investment for Nigeria's Energy Security

In 2022, Nigeria's gas reserve was estimated to rise to 210.8 tcf. With adequate
investment in gas exploration, Nigeria could become the gas powerhouse of Africa.
Notwithstanding the significant gas reserves the country holds, only a small portion is
extracted annually. Gas production stood at an average of 2.53 tcf in nearly two
decades, which is less than 1% of the nation's reserve.

Innovative Strategies for Financing Nigeria's Gas Infrastructure Deficit & Access to capital

Through such initiatives as the Gas Master Plan of 2008, the National Gas Policy of
2017, the declaration of the ten-year period from January 2021 to December 2030
as Nigeria’s decade of gas, and the designation of natural gas as Nigeria’s
choice of transition fuel in its stated pursuit of energy transition, the Federal
Government of Nigeria (the Nigerian government or the FGN) has over the years
demonstrated a desire to develop a mature gas market in Nigeria. In pursuance of a gas-
powered economy and given the capital intensive nature of gas infrastructure projects;

3:45 PM Gas is a major feedstock for electricity generation in Nigeria. About 80% of Nigeria’s grid
electricity is generated from gas-fired thermal power plants. Nigeria faces a serious energy
crisis; power supply is not only epileptic but grossly insufficient to stimulate massive industrial
growth.

9:40AM MIDSTREAM & DOWNSTREAM GAS INVESTMENT SESSION

Expanding Gas Utilization: Stimulating & Deepening Investments for Midstream &
Downstream Gas Projects.

Historical non-viability of domestic commercial production and utilization of gas

continues to severely constrain private investments in the industry. Consequently, the low
level of investment in the industry has resulted in the minimal production and utilization of
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) as clean
alternative sources of domestic energy in Nigeria. Failure to harness its gas resources
has had negative consequences for the country – economic, environmental, fiscal and
social, particularly as the industry has the potential to engender rapid growth in
Nigeria’s non-oil economy.
