Nigeria Unveils First Comprehensive Gas, Power Infrastructure Map To Attract Global Investment

Nigeria is set to unveil its first comprehensive Gas and Power Infrastructure Map at the 25th edition of NOG Energy Week, in a move expected to boost investor confidence and provide unprecedented visibility into the country’s energy assets.

The landmark publication, developed under the Gas for Africa programme in partnership with NNPC Limited, will provide a consolidated overview of Nigeria’s gas and power infrastructure, covering pipelines, gas processing facilities, power generation assets, LNG terminals and major transmission networks.

Industry stakeholders say the initiative addresses one of the most significant challenges that has historically constrained investment in Nigeria’s gas and power sector—the lack of reliable and centralised industry intelligence.

The infrastructure map will be launched alongside a comprehensive report on Nigeria’s gas industry, described by its developers as the most extensive intelligence publication ever produced on the country’s gas sector.

The report provides a full value-chain assessment of the industry, examining developments since 2020 and outlining key opportunities across upstream, midstream and downstream operations.

According to the organisers, the publication reviews Nigeria’s evolving gas market, the NNPC Gas Master Plan 2026, production trends, reserves growth, pipeline infrastructure, processing capacity and emerging market opportunities.

It also evaluates developments in compressed natural gas (CNG), piped natural gas (PNG), liquefied natural gas (LNG), gas-to-power projects and gas-based industrial activities, including fertiliser production, petrochemicals, methanol manufacturing and metals processing.

The organisers said the combined publications provide the most detailed picture ever assembled of Nigeria’s gas sector and are designed to support investment decisions, project development and policy implementation.

The unveiling comes at a time when global energy markets are undergoing significant realignment amid geopolitical tensions and supply chain disruptions, increasing demand for reliable and diversified energy suppliers.

Nigeria has sought to position itself as a major energy destination by expanding crude oil production, strengthening domestic refining capacity and implementing reforms aimed at unlocking its vast gas resources.

According to the organisers, the infrastructure map and sector report translate Nigeria’s energy potential into actionable intelligence that investors, project developers and policymakers can use to identify opportunities and accelerate decision-making.

Participants attending NOG Energy Week will be the first to gain access to the publications, giving them early insight into investment opportunities across the country’s gas and power value chain.

The event is also expected to serve as a platform for major commercial engagements, including project partnerships, joint venture discussions, memoranda of understanding and investment announcements.

Organisers said preparations for the conference have gathered momentum, with governments, policymakers, industry leaders and international investors expected to converge on the Abuja International Conference Centre for five days of discussions on the future of Africa’s energy industry.

They expressed confidence that the release of the infrastructure map and industry report would strengthen Nigeria’s position as a leading destination for energy investment and contribute to efforts to accelerate gas development, power generation and industrial growth.

The 25th edition of NOG Energy Week is expected to bring together stakeholders from across the global energy value chain to explore opportunities arising from Africa’s growing role in international energy markets and the continent’s transition toward greater energy security and economic development.
