Nigeria Advances Gas Transition with Operational Pipelines and CNG Facilities
Nigeria is advancing its gas transition with the operationalization of pipelines and compressed natural gas (CNG) facilities, providing industrial plants with alternatives to diesel and petrol. This shift from planning to execution in the gas value chain is crucial for reducing energy costs and emissions amid unreliable electricity supply. Engr. Dr. Waheed Adedeji Ashiru's expertise in pipeline projects and his recent appointment as CEO of the Ogun-Osun River Basin Development Authority underscore his role in enhancing infrastructure delivery and sustainability in Nigeria's energy sector.

Nigeria's gas transition is marked by the operationalization of pipelines and compressed natural gas (CNG) facilities, which are supplying fuel to industrial plants and offering alternatives to diesel and petrol. Recent developments in Nigeria's gas value chain reflect a shift from planning to execution, particularly in industrial gas pipelines supporting manufacturing, power generation, and transport.
These assets are essential for reducing energy costs and emissions in sectors facing unreliable electricity supply. Engr. Dr.
Waheed Adedeji Ashiru has played a key role in various pipeline and gas-related projects since the early 2000s, including a significant 120-kilometre gas pipeline for the Obajana Cement Plant. His expertise has also aided CNG projects by facilitating operational readiness through engineering design reviews and regulatory compliance. Ashiru's recent appointment as CEO of the Ogun-Osun River Basin Development Authority highlights his project execution experience, vital for infrastructure delivery and sustainability in Nigeria's energy transition.
