Stakeholders in the Nigerian gas sector have listed a number of measures needed to be taken by both the government and operators to attract investments needed to develop the nation’s abundant gas resources and boost the economy.
The stakeholders who participated at the recently held 12th International Conference/2nd virtual Industry Multilogue organised by the Nigerian Gas Association (NGA) harped on the need for collaboration between government and operators to deliver Nigeria gas ambitions over the next decade.
According to the communique generated at the conference which centred on: “Powering Forward: Enabling Nigeria’s Industrialisation Via Gas”, Nigeria must enhance the fiscal and operational policies required to attract the right investments to realise the objectives and aspirations outlined within the nation’s gas programmes.
Seplat Petroleum Development Company Plc, leading indigenous energy company, has identified its fast-growing gas business as a strong catalyst for sustainable development in Nigeria.
