Dangote Group subsidiaries have signed bolstered gas supply contracts with NNPC units to support expansion plans, aligning with Nigeria’s shift toward cleaner energy and industrial growth.
The deals, signed with Nigerian Gas Marketing Limited and NNPC Gas Infrastructure Company, will support the Dangote Petroleum Refinery, Dangote Fertiliser Plant, and Dangote Cement Plc.
The contracts are part of Nigeria’s Gas Master Plan 2026, aimed at expanding infrastructure, improving supply, attracting investment, and making gas a key driver of economic growth.
The plan targets raising national gas output to 10 billion cubic feet per day (bcf/d) by 2027 and 12 bcf/d by 2030, with over $60 billion in investments.
Nigeria’s Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Gas) Ekperikpe Ekpo emphasized the plan’s focus on execution, converting reserves into reliable supply and economic value. NNPC Ltd Group CEO Bashir Bayo Ojulari highlighted the aim to boost production, optimise costs, and attract investment.
