Nigeria is set to take a major step toward transforming its energy investment landscape with the unveiling of the country’s first-ever comprehensive Nigeria Gas & Power Infrastructure Map at the 25th edition of NOG Energy Week, a development expected to reshape how investors, policymakers and industry leaders engage with Africa’s largest energy market.
For decades, one of the greatest obstacles to accelerating investment in Nigeria’s gas and power sector has been the absence of reliable, centralised and accessible industry data. That long-standing challenge is now being addressed through a landmark initiative developed by the Gas for Africa programme in partnership with NNPC Limited.
The Nigeria Gas & Power Infrastructure Map offers, for the first time, a single authoritative view of the country’s critical energy assets, including pipelines, gas processing facilities, power generation infrastructure, LNG terminals, and transmission networks spread across the nation.

Industry stakeholders say the initiative could significantly improve investment decision-making by providing a level of transparency and visibility that has historically been unavailable to both domestic and international investors.
Complementing the map is an extensive strategic report on Nigeria’s gas sector, regarded as the most comprehensive intelligence publication ever produced on the industry.
The report adopts a full value-chain perspective, examining Nigeria’s gas market evolution since 2020, the implementation of the NNPC Gas Master Plan 2026, upstream production trends and reserves, midstream infrastructure and capacity gaps, as well as downstream developments across compressed natural gas (CNG), piped natural gas (PNG), and liquefied natural gas (LNG) markets.
It also provides an in-depth analysis of the gas-to-power value chain and the growing role of gas in driving industrialisation through fertilisers, petrochemicals, methanol production and metals processing.
Together, the two publications are expected to provide the most complete picture of Nigeria’s gas ecosystem ever assembled, transforming complex industry data into actionable intelligence capable of driving investment decisions and infrastructure development.
The unveiling comes at a pivotal moment for the global energy industry. Geopolitical tensions and ongoing disruptions in traditional supply chains are forcing energy-importing nations to seek reliable, sovereign and scalable energy partners.
Nigeria is increasingly positioning itself to fill that gap. The country recently recorded its highest oil production levels in five years, reaching 1.71 million barrels per day, while also launching the Gas Master Plan 2026 in January and ramping up domestic refining capacity through the operational expansion of the Dangote Refinery.
Analysts believe these developments are reinforcing Nigeria’s status as one of Africa’s most consequential energy destinations.
By converting national energy assets into a consolidated intelligence platform, the Infrastructure Map and strategic report are expected to bridge the gap between investor interest and committed capital, while translating policy ambitions into tangible projects.
Attendees at NOG Energy Week 2026 will be among the first globally to gain access to both publications, giving them a strategic advantage as deal signings, joint venture announcements, memoranda of understanding, and project partnerships unfold during the five-day gathering in Abuja.
With just weeks to go before the event, anticipation continues to build. Governments, ministerial delegations, chief executives, investors, and stakeholders from across the global energy value chain are preparing to converge at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre (BATICC), where the next chapter of Africa’s energy future will be debated, negotiated, and shaped.

The silver jubilee edition of NOG Energy Week is expected to attract more than 7,500 attendees, feature over 300 exhibiting companies, welcome participants from 85 countries, and host 2,000 conference delegates, alongside 140 industry expert speakers delivering insights across 40 conference sessions.
As Africa navigates a rapidly evolving energy landscape, the unveiling of Nigeria’s most comprehensive gas and power intelligence platform may prove to be one of the defining developments that positions the country at the centre of the continent’s energy transformation.
