Managing Director, Shell Nigeria Gas, Ed Ubong
LAGOS AUGUST 26TH (NEWSRANGERS)-Nigeria’s leading domestic gas distribution company, the Shell Nigeria Gas Limited (SNG), has commissioned a far-reaching gas market survey in 33% of the states in Nigeria to gain deeper market insights for entry and to accelerate the achievement of Nigeria’s Decade of Gas objectives. SNG has engaged notable indigenous consulting firm, Philips Consulting Limited, for this project which has the potentials to advance Nigeria’s energy transition agenda.
SNG’s Managing Director, Ed Ubong, said, “The outcome of this survey will provide additional insights into gas critical role in transforming Nigeria to an industrialized nation. This key commercial activity of identifying gas supply and expansion opportunities cuts across all regions in the country and would leverage Nigeria’s $2.8 billion Ajaokuta-Kaduna-Kano (AKK) pipeline project to penetrate the key Northern markets.”
He said, “The new market survey will provide an opportunity to deepen domestic gas utilisation, enhance further industrialisation and enable local industries to have access to reliable and affordable energy to thrive and create employment opportunities for Nigerians.”
Managing Director Phillips Consulting Limited (PCL), Mr Rob Taiwo, said “PCL is pleased to partner with Shell on this important project as the world transitions to cleaner energy solutions. It will support consumers in meeting their evolving energy requirements by providing cleaner and cheaper alternatives. This project offers a unique opportunity to transform lives while advancing Nigeria’s energy transition agenda.”
Shell Nigeria Gas (SNG) is part of Shell Energy in Nigeria. This relationship allows SNG to leverage the capability of Shell Energy Trading, Shell’s global gas & power marketing and trading business, to accelerate and deliver competitive and reliable energy which enables economic development and growth.
