Nigeria's Dangote Refinery Expands Gas Deals with NNPC to Secure Fuel for Expansion Programmes

Three Dangote subsidiaries secured larger long-term gas supplies with Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited subsidiaries to support expansion and cleaner energy under Vision 2030.

  • Last weekend at NNPC Towers, three Dangote subsidiaries scaled up Gas Sales and Purchase Agreements with Nigerian Gas Marketing Limited and NNPC Gas Infrastructure Company Limited during the NGMP 2026 unveiling.
  • Under NGMP 2026, NNPC Ltd aims to exceed the Presidential mandate by raising national gas production to 10 billion cubic feet per day by 2027 and 12 billion by 2030, catalysing over 60 billion dollars in investment.
  • Company signatories say David Bird, Arvid Pathak and Mustapha Matawalle signed deals locking in gas for capacity expansion, with Bird calling the move bold and Pathak citing CNG adoption.
  • The agreements will secure gas for the Dangote refinery, fertiliser and cement operations, helping drive Vision 2030 with increased output and cleaner energy supply.
  • With about 210 trillion cubic feet of proven gas reserves, Bayo Ojulari called NGMP 2026 a roadmap to unlock Nigeria's gas potential, while Ekperikpe Ekpo said it marks a shift to disciplined execution.
