- The Seplat ANOH Gas Plant is a joint venture owned by Seplat Energy and the Nigerian Gas Infrastructure Company.
- The facility reportedly attained mechanical completion in December 2023 without a recorded Lost Time Incident across 12 million man-hours.
On Wednesday, May 15, 2024, President Bola Tinubu launched Seplat Energy’s ANOH Gas Processing Plant at Assa Community in Ohaji Egbema Local Government Area of Imo.
The plant, built by the ANOH Gas Processing Plant Company, is a joint venture owned equally by Seplat Energy and the Nigerian Gas Infrastructure Company, a subsidiary of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
The facility reportedly attained mechanical completion in December 2023 without a recordable Lost Time Incident across 12 million man-hours.
Tinubu commended Seplat Energy and its partners for their dedication to advancing Nigeria’s energy agenda. According to him, the inauguration is a significant mark of achievement, demonstrating teamwork, commitment and dedication to duty.
“This event is highly significant and demonstrates the administration’s determination to accelerate the development of critical gas infrastructure geared toward demonstrably enhancing the energy supply to boost industrial growth, create employment opportunities, and ensure the nation’s future prosperity.
“The project also fully aligns with the decade of gas initiative and our quest to create value from the nation’s abundant gas asset while eliminating gas flaring and celebrating industrialisation.
Speaking on the project, Seplat Energy’s board chairman, Udoma Udo Udoma, said the ANOH gas project strongly aligns with the firm’s mission of leading Nigeria’s energy transition with accessible, affordable, reliable energy that drives social and economic prosperity.
He added, “As a testament to our pledge to Nigeria, in partnership with the NNPC Ltd, we have delivered this project that will support the current administration’s drive for industrialisation and economic growth through low-cost, reliable power.
“To put this into context, if all of the gas from this plant went into the power sector, it would produce enough electricity to transform the lives of over five million people.”
