Project: Northern Option Gas Pipeline Project
Location: Rumuji in Rivers State to Owaza, Abia State, Nigeria
Products: 2 x FGM160 Flare Gas Meters

The Northern Option Pipeline (NOPL) Gas project is in consonance with the Nigerian government policy to fast track execution to meet domestic gas demand for power generation while also boosting Total’s contribution to the country’s domestic gas and future distribution to the national domestic gas network. The 50km pipeline which transverses 49 communities from Rumuji in Rivers State to Owaza, Abia State is a key infrastructure within Nigerian Gas Master Plan to allow the supply of up to 300 million standard cubic feet of domestic gas per day (mscf/d) to the Alaoji Power Plant through Imo River Node.

NOPL comprises approximately 52 kilometres of 24” pipeline with Above Ground Installations (AGI) at Rumuji and Imo River. NOPL will follow partially the route of the existing Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) pipelines between the aforementioned.
