Axxela Limited has expanded its gas pipeline network to enhance connectivity across Lagos, Ogun and Rivers states as part of efforts to strengthen its infrastructure footprint, deepen stakeholder engagement and promote responsible business practices.

The company disclosed this in its 2025 Sustainability Report, themed “Enabling Access, Deepening Impact,” which provided a comprehensive overview of its environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance across its operations during the year under review.

The report, which highlighted Axxela’s performance across key metrics in the year under review, disclosed that the company also recorded zero fatalities and achieved 9.6 million Lost Time Injury (LTI) free man-hours across its operations.

The report added that Axxela further strengthened its customer portfolio by connecting new industrial and commercial customers to its network.

Other significant milestones include achieving Great Place to Work certification and receiving a Gold Medal rating in the EcoVadis Sustainability Assessment, placing Axxela among the top five of companies assessed globally.

Commenting on the report, Group Chief Executive Officer of Axxela, Moshood Olajide, emphasised that the company’s 2025 performance reflected its commitment to responsible growth and long-term value creation.

He said expanding domestic gas utilisation remains central to the company’s strategy, noting that each new customer connection supports cleaner and more efficient energy use, helping industries improve efficiency and reducing reliance on traditionally dirtier fuels.

Olajide said the company’s growth remains anchored in responsible infrastructure development and long-term value creation, adding, “We will continue to support Nigeria’s transition towards a more sustainable gas-powered economy.”

The report also outlines Axxela’s approach to environmental management, including environmental monitoring, operational controls and rehabilitation programmes designed to minimise environmental disturbance and protect biodiversity.

The company maintained environmental compliance registers, conducted yearly compliance audits and risk assessments, and carried out quarterly emerging risk scans across its operations and projects.
