LAGOS, Nigeria, July 7, 2026<\/span><\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Chevron Nigeria Limited (\u201cCNL\u201d), in collaboration with Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited\u2019s subsidiary – NNPC Gas Infrastructure Company Limited (\u201cNGIC\u201d), has concluded a Network Entry Agreement (\u201cNEA\u201d) for the system entry point into the Escravos\u2013Lagos Pipeline System. The NEA establishes the contractual framework required under the Nigerian Gas Transportation Network Code to govern gas delivery operations and associated interfacing \/ information exchange between CNL\u2019s Escravos Gas Plant and NGIC.<\/u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

Jim Swartz, Chairman and Managing Director, CNL, said that the agreement underscores the NNPCL\/CNL Joint Venture\u2019s commitment to safe and reliable gas delivery while supporting Nigeria\u2019s broader gas development. \u201cBy strengthening the interface between CNL\u2019s Escravos Gas Plant and NGIC\u2019s transportation network, we are helping to enhance energy security, infrastructure efficiency and long-term value creation for Nigeria,\u201d he said.<\/u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n

Olusoga Oduselu, Chief Corporate Affairs Officer, CNL, stated that the development of Nigeria\u2019s uniform NEA framework places Nigeria among the league of countries whose central gas pipeline transporters operate under a standardized framework governing gas injection and offtake. \u201cBy establishing this common gas injection and offtake framework, the NEA reinforces the critical gatekeeping role of the gas Network Operator, NGIC, and delivery facility operators \u2014 like CNL, as operator of the NNPCL\/CNL Joint Venture\u2014 in ensuring that incoming gas does not compromise the safety, integrity, or efficiency of the national gas network,\u201d he noted.<\/u><\/u><\/span><\/p>\n
