Energy & gas

Gas Infrastructure for a Growing Energy Market

Kestrel is developing corporate capability and seeking opportunities across Nigeria's gas value chain, structuring projects with technical partners and equipment manufacturers.

Corporate mandate

A developing gas and energy infrastructure focus

Nigeria's gas resources are central to industrial growth, power reliability and cleaner domestic energy. Kestrel's corporate mandate covers conventional petroleum activity alongside the development of gas infrastructure opportunities.

Kestrel does not own or operate LNG plants, CNG facilities or pipelines. Our role is to develop opportunities, structure scopes with qualified technical partners and OEMs, and provide the Nigerian engineering, procurement and coordination capability required to take projects forward.

Focus areas

Where we are developing capability

Each area below describes an area of development interest and structuring capability, not existing owned or operated assets.
01

CNG Infrastructure

Developing capability in compressed natural gas infrastructure, including compression, storage and distribution equipment packages structured with technical partners.

02

LNG Infrastructure

Seeking opportunities in small and mid-scale liquefaction, storage and logistics through partnership with established technology providers.

03

Gas Processing

Engineering, procurement and equipment support for gas conditioning, treatment and processing facilities.

04

Virtual Pipelines

Capable of structuring virtual pipeline solutions with technical partners where fixed pipeline infrastructure is unavailable.

05

Gas Distribution

Developing interest in distribution schemes serving industrial and commercial gas users.

06

Regasification

Regasification equipment and station scopes evaluated with OEMs and specialist engineering organisations.

07

Gas-to-Power

Seeking opportunities to support gas-to-power projects that improve reliable energy access for industry.

08

Industrial Gas Solutions

Technical and commercial structuring of gas supply and equipment solutions for industrial consumers.

09

Gas Equipment Procurement

Procurement of gas handling, metering, compression and safety equipment to international standards.

10

Energy Infrastructure Development

Developing project structuring capability for energy infrastructure alongside technical and financial partners.

Policy context

Key policy and legal frameworks

Nigeria's oil and gas industry operates under a dual framework: foundational laws that set long-term rules, and recent executive interventions designed to eliminate red tape, secure revenue and drive new investment.

1999 Constitution & Petroleum Act

These establish that the Federal Government of Nigeria holds exclusive ownership and control over all mineral resources, petroleum and natural gas within Nigerian land, territorial waters and the Exclusive Economic Zone.

Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) 2021

The PIA structurally overhauled the industry by unbundling the state-run oil firm into a commercial entity (NNPC Limited) and establishing two independent regulators: the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) and the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA).
