Published

on

In an effort to provide cleaner and safer energy alternatives for its customers, leading fuel retailing company in Nigeria, Enyo Retail and Supply, has commenced its Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) expansion agenda aimed at boosting the usage of gas in Nigeria.

The expansion agenda is in line with the Federal Government’s initiative to deepen the consumption of gas in Nigeria.

The expansion will necessitate key initiatives such as investment in an LPG filling plant, the launch of its first Autogas filling station, a superior Liquified Gas mobile app and sales of a broad range of gas-based products and services to its customers. Moreover, the expansion will enable the company to deliver convivence to its customers.

Commenting on the expansion, Mr. Abayomi Awobokun, Chief Executive Officer, ENYO Retail and Supply, said, “Following the Federal Government’s declaration of 2020 as the year of gas, ENYO is thrilled to be championing the transition towards cleaner energy and making efforts to intensifying domestic gas penetration as well as adoption in Nigeria.

We have set a target to invest in up to 20 LPG plants over the next 24 to 36 months and we expect to have our first Autogas station open in 5 to 6 months”.

Also commenting, Sales and Marketing Lead, Enyo Retail and Supply, Habiba Abubakar, said, “The investment in LPG would enable Enyo to utilise emerging opportunities in the oil and gas industry while also leveraging on data and technology for improved service delivery.

We have already identified sites for our Autogas points, and an approach has been mapped out to ensure that these points become operational soon”.

In addition, the company recently unveiled its technologically enhanced composite LPG cylinders which aligns with its expansion plan. The cylinders are ideal for domestic and commercial use, weighing fifty percent less than conventional steel cylinders.

Speaking on the Composite LPG Cylinder, Habiba Abubakar added “We are also excited to introduce our brand of quality composite gas cylinders to the Nigerian market as this is a revolutionary step which will transform LPG usage for years to come.

The introduction of these technologically driven composite gas cylinders proves our commitment to strengthening customer experiences across the country.

These cylinders guarantee usage without danger or loss of life and property thus making them extremely safe to use.

Their light weight and translucency also mean the amount of gas inside the cylinders can be easily seen, ensuring the right quantity of gas is supplied thereby removing worries of metal theft. This also reiterates our values of being fueled by safety and trust”.

Climate Change: NNPC Ltd/Total Energies JV Achieves Zero Gas Flare

Published

In pursuit of meeting the targets of 20% (unconditional) and 47% (conditional) greenhouse gas emission reduction as contained in the Nationally Determined Contribution under the Paris Accord signed by the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration, the NNPC Ltd/TotalEnergies Joint Venture has achieved zero routine gas flare in all its assets.

According to a statement signed by Olufemi Soneye, Chief Corporate Communications Officer, NNPC Ltd., this feat was announced on Thursday during an inspection tour of OML 100 in South-eastern Niger Delta, off Port Harcourt, by a joint NNPC Ltd and TotalEnergies Team to ascertain the success of the OML Flare Reduction Project launched in December 2023.  

The NNPC Ltd/TotalEnergies Joint Venture, which is the concession holder of four leases, had hitherto achieved zero routine flaring across OML 99 (2006), OML 102 (2014), and OML 58 (2016), leaving OML 100 as the only lease with routine flaring going on.

The significance of this achievement is that the last routine flare volume of about 12MMscf/d (twelve million standard cubic feet per day) of gas has now been eliminated giving rise to a greenhouse gas emissions reduction of about 341KtCO₂e/yr.

The achievement is an outcome of a programme introduced by the NNPC Ltd to galvanize action towards achieving the zero routine flare by 2030 across its portfolio of assets.

It is also a testament to NNPC Ltd’s prioritization of sustainability anchored on the ‘first R’ of its 5R Strategy (Reduce, Replace, Renew, Re-plant, Repurpose), as it strives to reduce its carbon footprint.

Work is ongoing across all other assets within NNPC Ltd’s Upstream Directorate to ensure that all assets achieve zero routine flaring by 2030 or earlier.

NNPC Celebrates 14,000bpd Production from Akpo West Field

In line with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s directive to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) to optimise production from the nation’s oil and gas assets, the Company has announced the successful commencement of oil production from the Akpo West Field.

The milestone, which is the result of meticulous planning, strategic collaboration, and unwavering dedication from all stakeholders involved in the project, will add 14,000 barrels per day condensate to the nation’s production. This will be followed up by the production of about 4million cubic meters of gas per day by 2028.

The development of Akpo West which is on Petroleum Mining Lease (PML) 2 (formerly OML 130) leverages the existing Akpo Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) facility via a subsea tie-back to keep costs low and minimize greenhouse gas emissions.

The milestone was enabled by the strategic leadership of the Group Chief Executive Officer (GCEO), Mr. Mele Kyari, and the Upstream Directorate of the NNPC Ltd whose support played no small role in propelling the operators to actualise the short- and mid-term hydrocarbon production goal of the President Tinubu administration.

Located 135 kilometres offshore, Akpo West is one of the discoveries on PML 2 with proximity to the Akpo main which started up in 2009 and produced 124,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2023.

PML 2 is operated by TotalEnergies with a 24% interest, in partnership with CNOOC (45%), Sapetro (15%), Prime 130 (16%), and the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd as the concessionaire of the Production Sharing Contract (PSC).
