“Natural Gas is that one singular resource Nigeria can leverage to create transformative change across various sectors and spheres of industry. As the NGA, we have worked resolutely over the past twenty years to foster a legal, regulatory and policy landscape for gas that is attractive to participants and investors, with the attendant multiplier benefits to the nation at large.” Mrs. Audrey Joe-Ezigbo President, Nigerian Gas Association.

“With over two decades of consistent and progressive advocacy drive, NGA has earned the pride of place as the flagship voice in the gas industry, worthy of celebration! Mr Violin Antaih, Publicity Secretary, Nigerian Gas Association.

Since inception, the Nigerian Gas Association has carried on its commitment to effectively champion the competitiveness and effective utilization of Natural Gas by promoting sound policy development, capacity development and best practices towards optimising the economics of the entire gas chain while emphasizing environmental protection and safety.

According to recent statistics shared by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation research department, Nigeria's proven Natural Gas reserve went up to 202 trillion cubic feet (tcf) from the initial figures in the past decades, steadily elevating the country's capacity reserves to those of countries like Iran, Qatar, and Russia.

Having successfully initiated several industry-changing gas policies, viable gas projects and transnational deals through its distinguished members, the Association is poised to break new grounds in uplifting the gas industry and positioning Natural Gas as the energy fuel of choice for the nation’s economic and industrial revolution.
