Power Gas Global Investments (Nigeria) Limited (dba Powergas) invites submission of qualifications and proposal data (collectively referred to as the “Proposal”) from interested U.S. firms that are qualified on the basis of experience and capability to execute a feasibility study for a small scale liquefied natural gas project in Nigeria. The Proposal submission deadline is August 7, 2026. The U.S. firm selected will be paid in U.S. dollars from a $1,227,000 grant to Powergas from the U.S. Trade and Development Agency.
About the Grantee
Powergas is one of Africa’s largest producers and distributors of compressed natural gas (CNG) with over a decade of experience in gas distribution and infrastructure development. Powergas has five operational CNG plants from which they have successfully delivered over 14 billion standard cubic feet (scf) of CNG to industrial, commercial, and transport customers. Their operations span multiple regions in Nigeria, with a robust distribution network and a customer base that includes leading multinational corporations.
Project Background
Due to the significant unmet electricity demand and growing interest in turning to bulk sources like LNG in Nigeria’s industrial sector, Powergas seeks to develop a scalable small-scale LNG plant that will have a total nameplate capacity of 200 metric tons per day (mt/d) of LNG, consisting of four trains of 50 mt/d each. The plant will employ state-of-the-art equipment and technology including natural gas metering, regulation, purification, and liquefaction. It will be located at one of Powergas’s two existing sites, either at the Ebedei CNG Plant in Delta State or the Ogbele CNG Plant in Rivers State.
About the Study
The Study will involve an LNG market assessment and off-taker engagement to help identify new customers for Powergas’s anticipated LNG operations as well as technical analysis and detailed engineering plans needed to implement the Project.
