Axxela: Pioneering the Natural Gas Revolution in Nigerian Industries

Axxela, a leading energy company, is spearheading a transformative shift in Nigerian industries through its focus on natural gas. This strategic move aligns with the global trend towards cleaner and more efficient energy sources.

Axxela, through its four subsidiaries, supplies natural gas to commercial and residential customers across southern Nigeria. This initiative is driving industrial growth and transformation in the region. Axxela’s CEO, Bolaji Osunsanya, highlights that many industries are leveraging the benefits of natural gas due to its clean nature and cost-effectiveness. Today, Axxela serves about 200 of the top industrial companies in Nigeria.

In a bid to extend the reach of natural gas beyond the southern region, Axxela employs a combination of physical and virtual pipelines. The virtual pipelines cater to those customers who are not currently on the pipeline infrastructure. They liquefy or compress the natural gas, transport it on wheels – either on trucks or on rail – and deliver it to customers in the hinterland.

In conclusion, Axxela’s efforts in supplying natural gas are revolutionizing Nigerian industries. Their commitment to environmental sustainability and the adoption of global best practices are setting a benchmark for other energy companies to follow.
