We are pleased to share an update on the development of our state-of-the-art Bauchi LPG plant located in Wuntin Dada, along Jos Road, after BATV, Bauchi State, Nigeria. This landmark project is strategically positioned to serve the growing energy needs of Bauchi and the broader North East region, including Yobe, Borno, Gombe, Plateau, and Adamawa states.
Current Development Status
Our Bauchi LPG Plant is progressing steadily, with notable milestones achieved across key project components:
✅ Civil Works – 65% Completed
✅ Mechanical and Electrical Works
- Two 60MT LPG storage tanks already installed
- Installation of gas pipelines and electrical systems to commence shortly
Technical Specifications
- Total Storage Capacity: 120MT (120,000kg)
- Bottling Line Capacity: Up to 120,000kg per day (equivalent to 9,600 12.5kg cylinders), with potential for scalability based on demand
- Filling Technology: Fully automated filling scales with integrated quality control systems
- Dispensing Facilities: Bulk LPG loading bays designed to support commercial and industrial clients
- Fleet Readiness: Availability of Bobtails to enhance distribution flexibility
Commissioning Timeline
We are targeting Q4 2025 for the full commissioning of the plant. Once operational, this facility will be one of the most efficient and modern LPG plants in the region, significantly enhancing clean energy accessibility in Northern Nigeria.
Strategic Impact
- Bridging Supply Gaps: This plant will help address the LPG shortage across key states in the North East Region.
- Environmental Sustainability: Promotes clean energy usage, helping to reduce deforestation and indoor air pollution caused by traditional cooking fuels.
- Economic Development: The plant will generate employment, improve energy infrastructure, and stimulate local economic growth.
Butane Energy is excited about the progress made so far and remain committed to delivering a safe, efficient, and sustainable LPG Plant that meets national and regional demand for cleaner energy alternatives.
