Nigeria’s Gas Production and Infrastructure Readiness

Summary

Nigeria is Africa’s largest holder of natural gas reserves, with over 215 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of proven reserves and potential resources estimated at up to 600 Tcf. Gas production is concentrated in the Niger Delta, where fields produce a mix of associated gas, condensate-rich gas, and dry gas. These resources underpin Nigeria’s LNG export dominance and its domestic gas-to-power ambitions.
