NOG 2026: Nigeria to unveil first-ever gas, power infrastructure map to boost energy investment
Nigeria is set to unveil its first-ever comprehensive Gas and Power Infrastructure Map at NOG Energy Week 2026, a landmark initiative expected to reshape investment decision-making and unlock fresh capital flows into the country’s energy sector.
The unveiling, scheduled for the 25th edition of NOG Energy Week in Abuja, marks a significant milestone in Nigeria’s efforts to provide investors, policymakers and industry stakeholders with a single, authoritative source of intelligence on the nation’s energy infrastructure.
For years, investors have cited the lack of consolidated and reliable data as a major obstacle to large-scale investment in Nigeria’s gas and power industries. The new infrastructure map seeks to bridge that gap by providing an integrated overview of critical energy assets across the country.
Developed under the Gas for Africa programme in collaboration with NNPC Limited, the publication offers the most detailed mapping of Nigeria’s gas and power ecosystem to date. It captures pipelines, gas processing facilities, power generation plants, LNG infrastructure, transmission networks and other strategic assets that underpin the country’s energy value chain.
Industry stakeholders say the initiative will improve market transparency, support project planning and provide investors with the intelligence needed to identify opportunities across the sector.
Complementing the infrastructure map is a comprehensive strategic report on Nigeria’s gas industry, described as the most extensive assessment of the sector ever assembled in a single publication.
The report adopts a full value-chain approach, examining developments in Nigeria’s gas market since 2020, the implementation of the NNPC Gas Master Plan 2026, upstream gas production trends and reserves, midstream infrastructure expansion, pipeline capacity requirements, and growth opportunities in compressed natural gas (CNG), piped natural gas (PNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG).
It also provides detailed insights into the gas-to-power segment and the role of gas in driving industrialisation through sectors such as fertilisers, petrochemicals, methanol production and metals processing.
Together, the map and report are expected to provide investors with an unprecedented understanding of Nigeria’s energy landscape at a time when global energy markets are undergoing significant realignment.
The launch comes amid growing international demand for secure and diversified energy supplies, as geopolitical tensions and supply chain disruptions continue to reshape global energy trade patterns.
Nigeria is increasingly positioning itself as a strategic energy partner, supported by rising hydrocarbon production, ongoing gas sector reforms and major infrastructure developments across the petroleum value chain.
By translating complex infrastructure and market data into actionable intelligence, the publications are expected to strengthen Nigeria’s investment proposition and support efforts to accelerate gas development, power generation and industrial growth.
Participants attending NOG Energy Week 2026 will be the first to gain access to the infrastructure map and strategic report, providing early insights into investment opportunities as industry leaders, government officials, financiers and project developers converge on Abuja for the event.
With preparations intensifying ahead of the conference, organisers say the launch underscores Nigeria’s ambition to leverage its vast gas resources to drive economic growth, energy security and industrial transformation while reinforcing its position as a leading energy destination in Africa.
