Oil and gas companies in Nigeria

Compressed Natural Gas

Axxela is the first non-affiliated and independent shipper on the WAGP and plans to expand the supply of gas into other West African countries.


In global ranking, Nigeria is the ninth country with the largest gas reserves, and first in Africa with about 202 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. The country’s current gas production is about 8.5 billion standard cubic feet per day. To this end, there is more than $50 billion worth of investment opportunities in the gas value chain.

By embracing natural gas, sub-Saharan Africa is taking advantage of cleaner and easier access to energy; efficient power generation for local industrial and commercial use; and reduction in the cost of production of goods. Ultimately, natural gas has the potential to take countries in the region from the status of frontier markets to fully developed economies.

These statistics are a background to our operations, which are driven by a dynamic and focused strategy of developing high-yield gas and power portfolio investments to facilitate sustainable economic advancement.

 

Regional Operations (West Africa)

At Axxela, we focus on providing innovative solutions that are not only ground-breaking, but also play a big role in solving energy problems in sub-Saharan Africa. In 2018, Axxela Limited signed a Gas Transportation Agreement with the West African Gas Pipeline Company Limited (WAPG) to transport over 15 million standard cubic feet per day of natural gas via the West African Gas Pipeline to Lome, Togo. WAGP is a 678km regional pipeline linking the Escravos-Lagos Pipeline System in Nigeria to Takoradi in Ghana, with gas delivery laterals from the main line extending to Cotonou, Benin; Lome, Togo; and Tema, Ghana.

Axxela is the first non-affiliated and independent shipper on the WAGP and plans to expand the supply of gas into other West African countries. Through our regional operations, we have saved more than 51,000 tons CO2e from being emitted into the atmosphere since September 2018, an average of about 6,400 tons CO2e per month. Propelled by our professionalism, strategic partnerships, and excellence across our business enterprise, we remain firmly committed to the positioning of gas as a catalyst for socio-economic empowerment across the region’s key markets.
