150 proposed stations by 2031
We plan to develop 150 CNG stations across Nigeria during 2027–2031. Our cost estimates assume 105 medium and 45 high-capacity stations; we will confirm each station’s size through site assessment.

Our focus
105 medium + 45 high-capacity (provisional)
We plan to add 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 stations in 2027–2031 respectively. Our first programme covers the first 50 stations. Our forecast runs to 2033, with no additional stations assumed in Years 6–7.
Station models
A CNG facility may combine supply, drying, compression, storage, priority control and dispensing. The required configuration depends on inlet conditions, demand profile, site constraints and the supply method.

Our approach
Market
Validate customer clusters, fleet commitments, competing capacity and the practicality of each gas-supply route.
System interfaces
We treat gas supply, processing, storage, dispensing and controls as one system. Our process requires qualified specialists to confirm the design, document approvals and verify readiness before a facility enters service.
Projects & progress
Our delivery plan combines regional teams, qualified contractors and central programme oversight. We will assign clear responsibility for budgets, approvals, inspections, maintenance, incidents and reporting to the board.
