The managing director of the firm, Prof. Joe Ezigbo said, the license confers exclusive right to Falcon Corporation for gas distribution within the Ikorodu industrial Zone.
Ezigbo added that, the GDL marks a significant regulatory approval that strengthens its role in the domestic gas market

“This milestone enables us to expand our gas distribution operations, ensuring a more sustainable and efficient supply of natural gas to industries, businesses, and residential consumers,” Ezigbo noted.
The GDL IS in line with Section 148 of the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) 2021, which mandates the NMDPRA to issue Gas Distribution Licenses to qualified individuals and organisations. This move is part of the government’s efforts to implement the PIA and Gas Distribution Regulations of 2023.

The initiative is also expected to open up opportunities across several key sectors, including energy-intensive industries, power generation, clean cooking initiative, gas reticulation, compressed natural gas mobility, and energy parks and special economic Zones.

The Falcon Corporation MD maintained that natural gas plays a transformative role in fostering industrialisation, creating employment opportunities, and generating revenue for sustainable national development.
