The temporary reduction in gas supply due to Seplat Energy's maintenance, announced by NNPC, will modestly impact electricity generation in Nigeria. This could lead to short-term volatility for power generation companies like Egbin Power Plc and Transcorp Power Plc, and potentially affect industrial customers reliant on the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation — NNPC Gas Infrastructure Company pipeline network.

Oil and Gas Electric Utility

Seplat Energy, a joint venture partner of NNPC, has scheduled routine maintenance on its gas production facilities from February 12 to February 15, 2026. This four-day shutdown will lead to a temporary reduction in gas supply into the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation — NNPC Gas Infrastructure Company pipeline network, which serves several thermal power plants and industrial customers across Nigeria. As a result, power generation companies, including Egbin Power Plc, Azura-Edo Independent Power Project, Sapele Power Plant, and Transcorp Power Plc, may experience reduced gas availability, modestly impacting electricity generation levels nationwide. NNPC and Seplat Energy are working to ensure safe and timely completion of the maintenance, while Nigerian National Petroleum Company — Nigerian Gas Marketing Limited is engaging alternative gas suppliers to mitigate supply gaps.
