The domestic supply of natural gas in Nigeria is relatively limited, making it hard for businesses, especially those outside of major pipeline network zones to enjoy reliable LNG supply for their energy needs. Axxela’s subsidiaries Gaslink Nigeria Limited, Central Horizon Gas Company, and Transit Gas Nigeria Limited are some of the few LNG companies in Nigeria working hard to alleviate this situation. Using innovative distribution solutions such as virtual pipeline networks, Mini-LNG plants, etc., these LNG companies daily supply over 80 million cubic feet of gas to 200+ industrial customers in major regions across Nigeria.
If you’re a business looking for a reliable LNG supplier, here are four Axxela-owned LNG companies in Nigeria with an extensive distribution network spread across the country’s regions to bring natural gas nearer to all commercial customers.

CHGC is able to safely deliver LNG at the required pressure to end-users at their location by using a Pressure Reduction and Metering Station (PRMS) which is installed at the delivery point where the customer is located.
