President Tinubu To Commission New Gas Projects Undertaken by NNPCL
Nigeria, May 2, (Epicstorian News) – President Tinubu, in line with his plans to drive economic growth,will commission three new gas plants.
With this being part of his economic agenda focused on improving demestic sectors, which include investment in the gas sector, president Tinubu is poised to commission these three gas plants projects that are being executed by Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).
The three critical gas infrastructure projects, according to a document released by the State House Media, are being undertaken by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) and partners.
It said, “The projects support the federal government’s effort to grow value from the nation’s gas assets while eliminating gas flaring.
“The delivery of the projects was accelerated from the inception of the administration in keeping with the overall objective of deepening domestic gas supply as a critical enabler for economic prosperity.”
The Gas Plants Projects Details:
In the obtained document, the three gas Plants Projects to be commissioned by President Tinubu were outlined as seen below.
1. AHL Gas Processing Plant 2 (GPP – 2) – 200mmscf/d
This project is an expansion to the Kwale Gas Processing Plant (GPP – 1), which currently supplies about 130MMscf/d of gas to the domestic market.
The processing plant is designed to process 200MMscf/d of rich gas and deliver lean gas through the OB3 Gas Pipeline. This additional gas supply will support further rapid industrialization of Nigeria.
The plant will also produce about 160,000 MTPA of Propane and 100,000 MTPA of Butane, which will reduce the dependency on LPG Imports. The AHL Gas Plant is being developed by AHL Limited, an incorporated Joint Venture owned by NNPC Limited and SEEPCO.
2. ANOH Gas Processing Plant (AGPC) – 300MMscf/d
The ANOH gas plant is an integrated 300MMscf/d capacity gas processing plant designed to process non-associated gas from the Assa North-Ohaji South field in Imo State.
The plant will produce dry gas, condensate, and LPG. The gas from ANOH gas plant will significantly increase domestic gas supply, leading to increased power generation and accelerated industrialization.
The ANOH Gas Plant is being developed by ANOH Gas Processing Company, an incorporated Joint Venture owned by NNPC Limited and Seplat Energy Plc on a 50-50 basis.
(3) ANOH-OB3 CTMS Gas Pipeline Project
The project involves the engineering, procurement, and construction of 36”x23.3km ANOH-OB3 Project. The Transmission Gas Pipeline will evacuate dry gas from the Assa North-Ohaji South (ANOH) primary treatment facility (PTF) to OB3 Custody Transfer Metering Station (CTMS) for delivery into the OB3 pipeline system.
About 600MMscf/d is estimated to be available from two separate 2 x 300MMscf/d capacity gas processing production trains from AGPC & SPDC JV.
This will help create a better investment climate and promote balanced economic growth cumulatively.
