VIRTUAL GAS PIPELINES – A REALITY :

CASE-STUDY OF TOTALSUPPORT’S CNG INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT IN

PORTHARCOURT

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

• Nigeria has abundant natural gas resources. However the pipeline infrastructure to evacuate produced(associated & non-associated) gases is very limited to small clusters in Lagos, Portharcourt, Aba, Ota, Agbara, Ajaokuta, Ikot-Abasi, Benin. A few other clusters like Calabar is in the works.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

• Natural gas fuels are inherently cheaper and much cleaner than other existing fossil-fuel sources like diesel, gasoline, fuel-oil.

• In view of the above, a national and holistic shift to cheaper and cleaner natural gas fuels makes economic and environmental sense.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

• Forward thinking companies like Dufil Prima Foods Plc(Indomie), IMI, and Schlumberger are already switching to natural gas fuels

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

• Being a Clean Energy Company, we are pioneering this Private Industry effort in Nigeria, especially in the Niger-Delta

• We have just delivered the First Truly Nigerian CNG Infrastructure in spite of unimaginable challenges.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Gas Receiving• This project receives pipeline gas

from the Shell gas node at Eleme Junction Portharcourt. The received gas is passed through a Customer Station(CS) to be filtered and prepared for compression.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Gas Compression• The pipeline gas received at a

pressure of up to 70bars is further compressed to 250bars and loaded into gas transport modules(GTM).

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Gas Transport• The gas transport modules then

moves the compressed gas to DUFIL premises at Choba – Pht(~30 Klm) … where there is no pipeline infrastructure.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Gas Consumption• At DUFIL-Choba, the compressed gas

in the GTM is consumed after reducing the pressure to the required consumption pressure(3Bar) --- hence the need to have PRMS(Pressure reducing & metering station) at DUFIL.

• The gas is then fed to Dufil gas generators and Steam Boilers

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Operational Experience in Niger Delta• Totalsupport Group is essentially a

child of the Niger-Delta. We are headquartered in Portharcourt.

 • Since starting operations with

Schlumberger in 1990, Niger-Delta has remained our primary area of operation and focus.

THANK YOU

• QUESTIONS PLS

APPROACH ZERO-FLARE

•BELOW 5 SLIDES ARE PICTURES OF WHAT

WE MUST NOT ENCOURAGE BY DOING NOTHING

APPROACH ZERO-FLARE

•Nigeria currently ranks #2 in the global

list of “Worst-Emissions-Footprint”

…. Only Siberia-Russia is worse.

WHAT WE WASTE !!• Nigeria flares about 2.1Billion

scf of gas daily. This is equivalent to wasting over 6,500MW of electricity or fueling over 1,000,000 commercial vehicles daily.

• At Flow-Station pricing … this represents an annual wastage of over $1.5Billion.

Some Nox Emissions Effects In Niger-Delta

• Acid rain leading to degraded & disappearing farm/fishery/livestock yields

• Polluted & noxious air leading to dramatic increase in cases of asthma, cancer, skin & respiratory diseases

A BETTER OUTCOME IS POSSIBLE

It Must Be CleanThe Capstone MicroTurbine approaches the

performance of zero-emissions technologies, but at a fraction of the cost...
