The Gas Resource Base

Nigerian Gas Reserves Breakdown


Associated Gas = 97TCF
Non-Associated Gas = 90TCF
Total (P1+P2) = 187TCF

Nigerias gas potential is enormous. Strategy is to leverage this gas resource


significantly for economic growth, with Power Sector being a key part of that
agenda
3
National Aspiration for Gas

Mutually-Reinforcing Cycle of Growth (Gas-Power-Industry-Power-Gas)

The nations gas agenda is robust. It puts gas-to-power at the core, but also envisions
an aggressive gas based industrial growth. This in turn will drive further growth of
power demand.
4
Realizing the Aspiration

 FGN has embarked on a major reform of our gas sector to assure delivery of the
aspiration on a sustainable basis .

1. Commenced implementation of the gas master


master--plan strategic framework towards a wholly
competitive, market driven domestic gas sector by 2014

2. Put in place a transitional framework to facilitate gas access in the short to medium term
particularly for the Power sector

3. Redefined the Commercial Framework for domestic gas supply to assure long run
sustainability of supply pricing, contracting, etc.

4. Commenced implementation of a major gas grid infrastructure to enable flexible delivery


of high quality gas to Power and other end users

4 Step Strategic Framework towards Full
Market Status

 Framework comprises an orderly transition from an intervention based kick- kick-off to one
of willing buyer willing seller by 2014
2014..
 Programme is progressing steadily and on course
 Power sector investors can look forward to a fully liquid gas market in Nigeria

7
Roadmap to Free Market

The vision is to attain full market status with willing buyer willing seller by
2014/2015
8
Sources of Gas for Potential Investors

 3 sources of gas have been identified for potential investors in the Power sector.
 Most dominant source in the short/medium term is the DSO

DSO Sources of Gas for Potential Investors
Breakdown of Gas Supply Plan Major New Gas Supply Projects

 DSO supply plan comprises existing, many ongoing gas projects and a few major new gas development
projects which are about to take off.
 70%
70% of this short/medium term plan is targeted at the Power Sector (about 3bcf/d by 2015
2015))
10
Gas Availability to Power Sector

About 3bcf/d targeted at Power Sector with existing PHCN plants being cardinal base load
consumers of the gas. Additional gas will come from other sources such as Independents
etc.
11
Transitional Gas Pricing

To assure sustainability of gas supply, a revised transitional pricing structure


is in place for gas to Power. Aspiration as market develops is willing buyer
willing seller prices.
12
Contractual Arrangements

 Considerable effort in developing a bankable template for GSAAs/GTAs


 Fairly standardized terms
 Enable speedy close-
close-out of negotiations
 Will be available on website

 Developing a gas transmission Network Code, which will be subscribed


to by all shippers and suppliers of gas

A robust contractual framework for gas supply is also being finalized

13
Gas Network Code Study: Network Code
requirements
 The major concepts underlying the Code are that:
 Gas transportation services should meet market
requirements on a non-
non-discriminatory basis;
 System security, reliability and safety should be assured;
 Tariffs should reflect the costs of service;
 Phased implementation of necessary infrastructure to
support electronic transactions to enhance operations
reliability; and
 Rules should be clear, unambiguous and comprehensive
 allow free market solutions to develop; and
 have mechanisms to handle industry complaints
 The Code should evolve in response to market requirements
 Effective modification process required
