11 New Pipelines Expected In Nigeria By 2023
Eleven new pipelines are expected to come on stream in Nigeria by 2023, GlobalData has said.
According to the data and analytics company, Nigeria is expected to contribute around 35 per cent of Africa’s total planned and announced oil and gas new-build trunk/transmission pipeline length additions between 2019 and 2023.
The company’s latest report, ‘Global Planned Oil and Gas Pipelines Industry Outlook to 2023 – Capacity and Capital Expenditure Outlook with Details of All Planned Pipelines’, revealed that Nigeria was expected to provide 6,601.5 kilometres of new-build pipelines by 2023.
It said most of the additions would constitute natural gas, at 6,460km, while crude oil pipelines would account for 142km.
An oil and gas analyst at GlobalData, Varun Ette, said, “In Nigeria, 11 new-build pipelines are expected to start by 2023. Of these, eight are planned projects and the remaining three are from early-stage announced projects.
“Trans Saharan Gas is the longest upcoming pipeline in the country with a length of 4,400km. This announced natural gas pipeline is expected to start operations in 2021.”
According to the report, Niger has the second highest new-build pipeline additions in Africa with two new-build pipelines, Niger–Benin and Zinder–Torodi pipelines are expected to start operations with lengths of 1,980km and 1,070km, respectively by 2023. Niger–Benin is a crude oil pipeline, while Zinder–Torodi is a petroleum products pipeline.
Ette said, “Followed by Niger, Algeria is expected to add 2,007.3km of infrastructure from five planned and two early-stage announced pipelines by 2023. Haoud El Hamra–Bejaia II is the major upcoming pipeline in the country with a length of 667.7km. The crude oil pipeline is expected to start operations in 2022.”
