Marketing of LPG, analysis, assessments and forecasts

Domestic gas consumption is expanding as a result of the ongoing power sector reforms of which Harig is a major component. Gas export which was non-existent prior to 1999, has received a strong boost.

Comprehensive and integrated gas utilization Master plan/programmes have been embarked upon, in which LNG and IPP developments are being given priority. The expected increased export earnings from LNG, coupled with adequate domestic power supply from IPPs, will strongly support and broaden economic expansion and urbanization, increase the income generating capacity of Nigerians and lift the general wellbeing. It will further reinforce Government's efforts towards integrating the Host communities into the mainstream of national development and growth.
