Sahara Gas

Sahara Gas Limited is a company established to operate fully in the Gas Sector of the Oil and Gas industry. The company is engaged in a variety of business activities from the acquisition of preferred stakes in gas projects to the marketing and sale of gas products, including Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), Liquefied Petroleum gas (LPG), and Condensates (Natural Gas Liquids- NGL).

Sahara Gas is highly committed to developing the domestic gas markets. It holds strategic stakes in the LNG sector with access to international gas markets and regasification facilities. Sahara Gas partnered with Sempra LNG to form a JV which secured 2.5% equity in the Olokola LNG (OKLNG) Project in Ogun State, Nigeria, and 3% equity in the Brass LNG Project in Bayelsa State, Nigeria.

Sahara Gas is also very actively involved in the Nigerian Gas Master Plan Scheme through a strategic investment in the West Niger Delta (WND) Central Gas Processing Facilities (CPF) Project.

Domestically, the company operates a 1000MT LPG storage, truck loading and bottling depot in Calabar, Nigeria, which is being upgraded to a 2500MT facility. In addition to its spot cargoes, the company operates the following term contracts:

• NNPC’s equity of LPG from NLNG’s Bonny River terminal since 2007
• Domestic LPG contracts from NLNG and NNPC respectively
• A 2 year contract to lift 100,000MT NGLs on behalf of NNPC through the NNPC/Mobil Joint Venture since 2005

As the first indigenous company to partake in the successful lifting of Oso NGL, Sahara Gas has been involved for over six years in the NNPC/Mobil Joint Venture, paving the way for other Nigerian establishments to follow.
