While reflecting on the achievement of the conference themed: ‘Gas: The Road to Economic Recovery’, the NLCGA President Felix Ekundayo commended the support and participation of delegates, partners and exhibitors.
“This year’s conference was a powerful reminder of the potential within our gas industry to drive Nigeria’s economic recovery.
“We are energised by the ideas exchanged, collaborations formed, and insights shared, all of which set a clear path for our industry’s continued impact,” Ekundayo added.
During the two-day conference, discussions highlighted gas as a vital force in revitalising Nigeria’s economy, generating jobs and providing sustainable energy solutions. Delegates emphasised the federal government’s initiatives such as the removal of VAT and import duties on gas and the Presidential CNG Initiative.
“The government’s support shows that gas is viewed as more than an energy choice it is a key driver for Nigeria’s journey to economic recovery,” the NLCGA boss said.
This year’s conference also marked the official rebranding of the association from the Nigeria Liquefied Petroleum Gas Association (NLPGA) to the Nigeria Liquefied and Compressed Gases Association (NLCGA), signalling an expanded mission that includes compressed natural gas (CNG), liquefied natural gas (LNG), hydrogen and biogases.
