Chevron Nigeria Limited has said it is committed to ending routine gas flaring, boosting domestic supply, diversifying and commercialising gas resources through gas-based industries.

The Chairman/Managing Director, CNL, Mr Jeff Ewing, said this, stressing that the oil major had contributed immensely to the Nigerian government’s gas master plan through the various gas projects it had embarked on. Ewing, according to a statement, described the company as the highest contributor of high-quality gas to the domestic market in Nigeria.

According to him, the gas strategy adopted by CNL will end gas flaring and build a profitable gas business through a portfolio of domestic, regional and export supply projects that fulfil the NNPC/CNL JV’s domestic gas supply obligation and support the Nigerian Gas Master Plan. He noted that through investments in gathering and processing of associated gas, flaring had been reduced by over 90% from 2008 to 2017 in CNL’s operations.
