PNG Gas operates the Egbaoma Gas Processing Plant (EGPP) in Delta State, which processes 30 million standard cubic feet of wet gas per day.
The company’s strategic goal is to increase this capacity to 100 million cubic feet by 2029, contributing to Nigeria’s domestic gas market and supporting over 400 families through direct and indirect employment.
Established in 2013, PNG Gas was founded to commercialise flared gas from oil mining license (OML) 38, aiming to reduce environmental damage and support global efforts to curb gas flaring.
