The management of the oil and gas giant ,Seplat Energy Plc stated that it has ended Routine Gas Flaring in its Onshore Operations in the country.
Mr Samson Ezugworie, the Chief Operating Officer/Executive Director of the company stated this while speaking on the operations of the company on Sunday, July 5, 2026 in Benin City.
Ezugworie, who added that the feat was achieved as at the end of 2025 described it as remarkable both in the country and globally.
According to him, I will make bold to say that in our operations in the onshore business that we have, both western assets and eastern assets, we actually achieved the end of routine flaring in all our onshore operations as of the end of last year.
He also disclosed that the company has invested in the Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) as part of policy to ensure its availability and making prices affordable to consumers in the country.
Ezugworie, said, the commitment was sustained with the establishment of LPG plant in Sapele, Delta State.
He also added that the first trucks of LPG bottles were offloaded from the plant on April 20, 2026.
Adding that, We are committed to contributing to LPG and cooking gas in the country. We already have the plant in Sapele. The plant is not somewhere else but in our area of operation.
“So again,all these are actually borne out of the fact that we are committed to the things we say. One of our key mantras in SEPLAT is integrity. One of our core values is integrity, and integrity only says a gap between what you say and what you should do be”, he added.
