Three subsidiaries of Dangote Group Limited—Dangote Petroleum Refinery, Dangote Cement Plc, and Dangote Fertiliser Limited—have scaled up their Gas Sales and Purchase Agreements (GSPAs) with subsidiaries of the NNPC Limited (NNPC Ltd), namely Nigerian National Petroleum Company — Nigerian Gas Marketing Limited and Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation — NNPC Gas Infrastructure Company. These agreements aim to meet the energy demands of the ongoing expansion projects of the Dangote subsidiaries, supporting Dangote Group' Vision 2030 for increased output and cleaner energy. The agreements were signed at the unveiling of the NNPC Gas Master Plan (GMP) 2026 in Abuja. The GMP 2026, described by Ekperikpe Ekpo, Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Gas), and Bashir Bayo Ojulari, Group Chief Executive Officer of NNPC Ltd, as a strategic roadmap, seeks to unlock Nigeria's vast gas potential, increase national gas production to 10 billion cubic feet per day by 2027 and 12 billion cubic feet per day by 2030, and catalyze over $60 billion in new investments across the oil and gas value chain by 2030. This plan aligns with Nigeria's Decade of Gas Initiative, positioning natural gas as a backbone for energy security and industrialization.
