The Ogidigben Gas City, is a greenfield industrial park that is situated 220 km, southeast of Lagos and 60 km west of Warri. The development is centered around a gas processing facility and as such, the delivery of gas for the domestic market, as well as for uses within the site will be made possible. The primary objective of the Ogidigben Gas City, however will be to transition from "Gas as Fuel" to "Gas as Feedstock". The project will thus, feature petrochemical and fertilizer plants, in addition to IPPs.
According to Vanguard, the specification for the project is as follows:
"The gas city will be developed in phases. In the first phase, it will comprise key anchor projects like the CPF, 150 MW independent power plant, IPP, 2.6 Mtpa fertilizer plant and infrastructure, including roads, a new port, residential, commercial accommodation and public facilities. Later phases will see the expansion of the CPF, addition of major petrochemical facility and additional gas-based, secondary and service industries.
Ultimately, the intent is to build a processing capacity to the point where there would be enough ethane available to supply a world-scale petrochemical plant. This would be implemented in phase 3, which would expand the CPF capacity to 2,400 MMscf/d
There is something that people do not know yet. The Gas Revolution Industrial City is the first industrial complex to be developed under the Gas Revolution Agenda. It is a model that will be replicated in other industrial complexes to be established in the Niger-Delta region where gas is available."
