Nigeria’s energy sector is set for a major milestone with the unveiling of the country’s first comprehensive Gas and Power Infrastructure Map at the 25th edition of NOG Energy Week, scheduled to hold in Abuja.
The landmark publication, developed under the Gas for Africa programme in partnership with NNPC Limited, is expected to provide investors, policymakers and industry stakeholders with the most detailed and authoritative overview of Nigeria’s gas and power infrastructure ever assembled.
Industry experts have long identified the lack of reliable, consolidated sector intelligence as one of the major obstacles to investment in Nigeria’s energy landscape. The new infrastructure map is designed to address that challenge by offering a single reference source detailing the country’s extensive network of gas and power assets.
According to the organisers, the map covers critical infrastructure across the energy value chain, including gas pipelines, processing facilities, power generation assets, liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals and key electricity transmission networks spread across the country.
The unveiling will be accompanied by what is being described as the most comprehensive report ever produced on Nigeria’s gas industry.
The publication provides a full value-chain analysis of the sector, examining developments and trends that have shaped the market since 2020.
The report also reviews the implementation of the NNPC Gas Master Plan 2026 and offers detailed insights into upstream gas production and reserves, midstream pipeline infrastructure, capacity requirements, and downstream developments involving compressed natural gas (CNG), piped natural gas (PNG) and LNG.
In addition, it explores the gas-to-power value chain and assesses the growing role of gas in driving industrialisation through fertiliser production, petrochemicals, methanol manufacturing and metals processing.
Energy analysts believe the release of both publications could significantly improve transparency and investor confidence by providing a clearer understanding of existing infrastructure, market opportunities and areas requiring further development.
The timing of the launch is particularly significant as global energy markets continue to experience disruptions arising from geopolitical tensions and supply chain uncertainties. Many energy-importing nations are increasingly seeking dependable and scalable supply partners capable of meeting long-term energy security requirements.
Against this backdrop, Nigeria has strengthened its position as a leading energy producer. The country’s crude oil production recently climbed to a five-year high of 1.71 million barrels per day, while the launch of the Gas Master Plan earlier this year signalled renewed commitment to expanding gas utilisation and infrastructure development.
The continued ramp-up of domestic refining capacity, led by the Dangote Refinery, has further reinforced confidence in Nigeria’s ability to play a larger role in regional and global energy markets.
Organisers of NOG Energy Week say the infrastructure map and accompanying report are intended to transform Nigeria’s energy narrative from one driven by potential to one backed by data and actionable intelligence.
By providing a clearer picture of the country’s energy assets and growth opportunities, the publications are expected to support investment decisions, facilitate project development and strengthen collaboration across the industry.
Participants attending NOG Energy Week will be among the first to gain access to both resources. Organisers believe the information will prove particularly valuable as investors, government officials and energy executives explore new partnerships and commercial opportunities during the event.
The annual conference has evolved into one of Africa’s most influential energy gatherings, bringing together key decision-makers from across the global energy value chain. This year’s edition is expected to feature high-level discussions on energy security, gas commercialisation, infrastructure expansion, energy transition strategies and investment opportunities.
With only a few weeks remaining before the event opens, preparations are intensifying as government representatives, ministerial delegations, chief executives and international investors make plans to attend.
The gathering at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre (BATICC) in Abuja is expected to serve as a platform for major announcements, including joint venture agreements, memoranda of understanding, project partnerships and investment commitments.
As Nigeria continues to position natural gas as a cornerstone of its economic development strategy, the launch of the country’s first Gas and Power Infrastructure Map may prove to be a defining step towards unlocking greater investment, accelerating infrastructure delivery and strengthening the nation’s standing within the global energy market.
