It however said ‘Reserve bidders’ status has also been accorded some companies for the corresponding flare sites in case the preferred bidders fail to meet the terms and conditions stipulated in the RFP.

According to the Commission, award letters are already being transmitted to the respective successful entities through the appropriate channels.

The successful 42 winners emerged out of the 300 companies/entities that indicated interest in either revalidating their prequalification status as existing participants or

submitting Statement of Qualification (SOQ) as new participants.

In furtherance of its mandate in Section 7 (e) and Section 105 (2) of the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA), 2021, the Commission, in the third quarter of 2022, restructured the NGFCP and re-launched the programme to align with the provisions of the PIA, as well as reflect prevailing economic and operational realities.

The Commission noted that the significant success recorded in the NGFCP bid process was due to a series of focused engagements with relevant stakeholders including domestic investors, international development

agencies, oil and gas producers, technology providers and financial

institutions during the intervening months.

Giving a background, the commission said “The engagements by the

Commission were to galvanise and sustain interest in the programme, attract

investments and stimulate participation by local and foreign entities.

“In response to the Request for Qualification (RFQ) issued in the fourth quarter of 2022, 300 companies/entities indicated interest in either revalidating their prequalification status as existing participants or

submitting Statement of Qualification (SOQ) as new participants.

“Following the evaluation of SOQs, a total of 139 applicants were deemed successful and awarded the Qualified

Applicant status.

“Subsequently, in the first quarter of 2023, the Commission

issued the Request for Proposal (RFP) to enable qualified applicants to put

together their respective proposals for any of the 49 flare sites on offer,” NUPRC states.

It also noted that “Eighty-eight entities, comprising individual companies and consortiums

responded to the RFP and submitted a total of 137 proposals, each containing technical, commercial and financial documentation for one or more of the 49 flare sites for either standalone or cluster development.

The proposals were duly evaluated by the Commission and approval secured

to announce 38 companies/entities as successful bidders for 40 sites

for standalone single flare site developments and four companies/entities

for nine sites to be developed as clusters; while some companies were

also awarded Reserve Bidders status for the corresponding flare sites in case

the Preferred Bidders fail to meet the terms and conditions contained in the

RFP.At this stage, the Preferred Bidders would individually proceed to execute the Suite of Commercial Agreements with relevant parties and effect payment of the prescribed award fees to enable the grant of Permit to Access Flare Gas by the Commission.

KPMG, a global network of professional firms, has been approved to partner with the Commission in the implementation of the award to ensure successful outcome of the gas flare-out commercialisation process.

“The Management congratulates the successful bidders and enjoins them to follow through with the final stages of the programme towards becoming Permit Holders and executors of viable projects that would harness flare gas for value creation,” it said.
