Seplat Energy has brought its 300 MMscfd ANOH gas project onstream, marking first gas and the start of commercial supply to Indorama’s petrochemical operations following completion of a new export pipeline and regulatory approvals. Initial output is delivering 40–52 MMscfd of processed gas and 2.0–2.5 kboepd of condensates, with plans to ramp up towards full capacity, add interruptible sales to Nigeria LNG, and ultimately channel volumes through the resumed OB3 pipeline once completed. Developed via an incorporated joint venture with Nigerian Gas Infrastructure Company, the ANOH plant unlocks an estimated 4.6 Tcf of condensate-rich gas, creates dual income streams for Seplat from wet gas sales and dividends, strengthens its position as a leading domestic supplier of LPG and clean cooking fuel, and supports its onshore end-of-routine-flaring programme and carbon-intensity reduction goals. The project, completed without a single Lost Time Incident and identified by the Nigerian government as one of seven critical gas developments, lifts Seplat’s onshore joint-venture gas processing capacity to over 850 MMscfd and is expected to materially bolster revenues, energy access and the company’s contribution to Nigeria’s economic and energy-transition objectives.
