Renaissance Energy, Nigeria’s largest oil and gas producer, has signed a landmark Gas Sale Agreement with Indorama Corporation Fertilizer FZE for the long term supply of up to 60Million standard cubic feet per day (60 MMscf/d) of natural gas.
The molecules will be supplied from the ANOH Gas Processing Facility over 16 years, starting in 2028.
Indorama is already receiving gas from the same fields that will source Renaissance’s ANOH Gas Processing Facility.
Since January 2026, the Seplat/NGIC owned ANOH Gas Processing Company (AGPC) has been supplying 50MMscf/d to Indorama from its own ANOH plant, following the completion of the 11-kilometre Indorama gas export pipeline and regulatory approval. This plant is different from the facility that Renaissance will supply from, which will be commissioned by 2028.
The ANOH project is the development of a straddle play, featuring Assa North field in Renaissance operated Oil Mining Lease (OML) 21 and Seplat operated Ohaji South field in OML 53 (a unitized Assa North-Ohaji South (ANOH) gas development). Each processing plant on either side has an output capacity of 300MMscf/d.
So why didn’t Indorama simply sign a 120MMscd/d with one of the two companies, rather than agree offtake of 60MMsf/d with Renaissance, after an earlier nod to at least 50MMscf/d supply from Seplat?
“The gas was already pre assigned at the onset and truly opportunistic for both parties at this time”, Tony Attah, .CEO of Renaissance, told Africa Oil+Gas Report.
There are more reasons, though, but the agreement clearly bolsters Renaissance’s domestic gas supply credentials as well as points up Indorama as one of the largest offtakers of gas in Nigeria outside the power sector.
“The agreement reinforces our commitment to unlocking the value of Nigeria’s abundant gas resources through strategic partnerships that drive industrialisation, support fertiliser production, strengthen food security, and create lasting economic value”, Renaissance says in a release..
