Nigeria has some of the largest
natural gas deposits in the world with estimated 180 trillion cubic feet of
proven reserves. Developments in Nigeria’s energy sector offer tremendous
opportunities for U.S. energy and services companies. The government of Nigeria
(GoN) continues to prioritize investment in natural gas and gas-based
industries, as outlined in the Gas Master Plan, a comprehensive gas
infrastructure development program, which targets new investments in gas
processing and pipelines, gas-to-power projects and petrochemical facilities,
projected to attract an industry wide investment outlay of over U.S. $16
billion. Recent GoN initiatives to drastically reduce gas flare and improve
domestic gas, includes the Nigerian Gas Flare Commercialization Program (NGFCP), offering investors opportunities for gas infrastructure development equipment
and services. The country plans to announce expression of interest (EOI)/
request for proposal (RFP) on scalable technologies for gas flare capture,
commercialization and infrastructure development for gas to power, LNG, LPG
etc… Other gas commercialization projects include the existing Notore
fertilizer plant, Indorama’s petrochemicals plant, the proposed $9bn Dangote
refinery for the provision of urea and ammonia fertilizer plants, expected to
come on stream by 2019. There is also a 2800-hectare gas-based free trade
zone in Delta State, new fertilizer and methanol plants and an underwater
pipeline to connect Nigeria’s Niger Delta to other West Africa markets which
are proposed to generate gas demands of over 2.5 billion standard cubic feet of
gas per day. Investment opportunities range from financial services, gas
transmission pipelines, pipe milling and fabrication yards to upstream gas
development, LNG and LPG plants as well as gas processing facility and
gas-based manufacturing industries. Additional opportunities include gas
infrastructure equipment,floating storage regasification units, pipelines, gas plants,
mooring/gas terminals, LPG cylinder plant services. To learn more about

Explore Downstream Energy Opportunities in Egypt
WEBINAR featuring Egypt’s Ministry of Petroleum Wednesday, April 18, 2018 10:00 AM (ET) / 9:00 AM (CT) REGISTER
This Webinar provides an overview of the key opportunities and challenges Egypt has in meeting energy consumption demands and explains how this will lead to greater opportunities for U.S. oil and gas operators, service companies, and manufacturers.
Egypt represents the region’s most populated energy market, Africa’s largest non-OPEC producer, and the largest oil and gas consumer on the continent. While Egypt is a mature fossil energy market, there is continued demand for new suppliers as discoveries in the Mediterranean, the Red Sea, and Western Desert require new and innovative technology. The local market is looking for technology that reduces energy costs while simultaneously boosting production.
In 2018, Egypt’s Ministry of Petroleum will issue tenders for upgrading refineries and modernizing existing LNG terminals to become a regional hub for energy.
