Abolaji Femi-Ishola (Tranergy & Co.) in discussing the gas-energy nexus stated that “as gas prices come close to market prices, there will be an increase in gas deals” and “the core of gas production goes to power consumption to ensure that power plants are not stranded and have enough gas as feedstock” Israel Aye (Primera Africa Legal) enlightened participants about the legal and regulatory expectations within the Regulation while Ivie Ehanmo (George Etomi and Partners) discussed the legal, regulatory, transactional and commercial structures and strategies for flare gas commercialisation and sale to off-takers. The Flare Gas Regulations had been signed into law by President Muhammed Buhari in July 2018.Gas flaring in Nigeria is a tremendous waste of scarce natural resource and fuel. It also contributes to climate change. [caption id="attachment_136166" align="alignleft" width="300"] L-R Mr. George Etomi (George Etomi & Partners), Mr Justice

These projects would be developed by competent third-party investors who are being invited to participate in a competitive and transparent bid process. The first stage of the bidding process commenced in January 2019. The NGFCP hopes to attract investment of about $3Billion USD, creating over 300,000 direct and indirect jobs and reducing CO2 emissions by over 20,000MT yearly]]>
