The Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) is targeting up to $10 billion in gas investments through its Midstream and Downstream Gas Infrastructure Fund (MDGIF). The fund has already deployed about $300 million to de-risk projects and attract private capital. The Chief Executive of NMDPRA, Mallam Rabiu Abdullahi Umar, disclosed this during a panel session at the 2026 Gastech Conference in Bangkok, Thailand. He explained that the MDGIF provides seed capital and equity financing to reduce investment risks and encourage private-sector participation in Nigeria's gas industry.
