GAS: $2.8bn Ajaokuta-Kano pipeline project revived 13 yrs after

Plans by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) to extend its major gas pipeline infrastructure to connect various parts of the country got a major boost last week following the signing of contracts for the engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning and financing for two lots of the Ajaokuta – Kaduna – Kano (AKK) gas pipeline.

Described as the single biggest gas pipeline project in the history of oil and gas operation in Nigeria, the singing of the contract between the NNPC and a consortium of indigenous and Chinese companies under a 100 per cent contractor financing model, paves way for the historic groundbreaking of the 40 inch by 614km gas pipeline in weeks to come.
