The Federal Government, in partnership with Rolling Energy Limited, has commissioned three compressed natural gas (CNG) facilities in Kano State, aiming to expand gas infrastructure across northern Nigeria and reduce transportation costs. These facilities, developed by the Midstream and Downstream Gas Infrastructure Fund (MDGIF) in collaboration with Rolling Energy, are expected to serve up to 2,500 cars and tricycles and 200 trucks daily. The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Gas), Ekperikpe Ekpo, highlighted the importance of these projects as a demonstration of the Federal Government's commitment to infrastructure development. The facilities include a liquefied-to-compressed natural gas (LCNG) distribution hub and retail station at Tamburawa, and an LCNG retail station at Hotoro. The Tamburawa hub has a capacity of 300,000 standard cubic metres daily, while the Hotoro station has a capacity of 21,000 standard cubic metres daily.
