Century Power Begins 2000mw Power Plant Construction by realjoker(m): 10:33am On Mar 13, 2017
C entury Power Limited, a subsidiary of the Obijackson Group, owners of Nestoil Limited, plans to start the construction of a-2000megawatts (Mw) thermal power plant in Anambra State, it was learnt.
The power plant, which will be sited at Okija in Anambra State, has been structured in such a way that the first phase, which will give an output of 465Mw and will commence operation in 2018.
Its Assistant General Manager (AGM), Group Business Development, Mr. Simeon Tor-Agbidye, told The Nation that the firm is tidying up arrangement for gas supply to the power plant from the East-West gas pipeline also known as the Obiafu/Obrikom – Oben (OB3) gas pipeline. The gas will be taken from the eastern part of the pipeline.
He also noted that a subsidiary of the Obijackson Group – Energy Works Technology Limited, is fabricating part of the topside facilities of Total’s Egina floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel.
He said: “A few weeks ago, we had a sail off for the Oil Loading Terminal (OLT) piles for the project. We sailed them off to South Korea where they will be integrated on the FPSO. We have finished that.
“We are at the final stages of completing K2s pipeline for Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC). The project is an engineering, procurement and Construction (EPC) contract for the 40km x 20 inches export pipeline to re-route Kolo Creek gas to Soku Gas Plant.
“We are also progressing smoothly with the OB3 pipeline. Obiafu/Obrikom–Oben is an EPC contract for the 64.5km x 48 inches gas pipeline project. We will soon complete that too. He explained that the scope of OB3 was actually split between Nestoil and Oilserv,” he said.
Tor-Agbidye said while Nestoil is coming from the West, Oilserv is coming from the East. He said: “One of the major achievements we have accomplished on this project is being able to surmount the challenges of the terrain. Coming from the West, we had some of the most difficult terrain crossing several rivers. We have crossed these rivers successfully with the innovative horizontal directional drilling (HDD) technology with our client, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). Our subsidiary, NestHak HDD Limited is an expert in the technology and only company in Nigeria that has 100 per cent success in the job.”
“Few days ago we completed the crossing of the Ashe River, and currently we are looking to the crossing of the River Niger. We will drill under the River Niger and pull a pipe through so that it doesn’t lie on the water and constitute hazard to shipping and other users of the river. We will lay pipes under the River Niger. It is almost two kilometers. It looks small but the way it is done is not an easy feat.

Anambra leads, others follow. Obiano is simply the best. The conducive environment he has created in Anambra has triggered an unpredecented rush of investors to the state.

This is the problem with this country why all the pipes that South south people will deliberately damage again. Only in Nigeria people waste money and time on useless projects.
Economists say move factory to raw materials abi no be so. Why can't we just have energy cities keep the south south busy.

1. The pipe would pass under water which means it'll be difficult to damage

2. How would you call such a project useless? Dafuq

3. Every state has the capability of generating its own power. You mustn't have an energy city. Power should be decentralised and this is the idea the Obijackson wants to tap into

From every indication, Obijackson's power station will start distributing power before Nnaji's. Nnaji has been shifting d timeline to start distributing power from his plant since 2014 that it now looks like a periodic ritual to give us dates for their imaginary start-up. The problem with Geometric in Aba is just greed. And this greed did not come from Emeka Offor, who is currently demanding a 2 billion naira pay off from Nnaji to settle their rift over d Aba business unit. Rather, it was Nnaji who displayed enormous greed when, as minister of power, he lumped d Aba business unit, which had been previously carved out for him, into d EEDC that was slated for privatisation with d belief that he would use his position as minister to influence the sale of d EEDC asset to a firm that his coy was part of. Well, it turned out that Offor had more clout in Aso rock than he did.

What is anti-Igbo about my comment? Someone asked why Geometric has not come on stream and i gave him the crux of d matter. Do u think i like the fact that Geometric is being unnecessarily delayed? Aba is the largest city by land area in Igboland and i want that place to be developed, esp with this power plant that would assist businesses there but the truth is that Mr Nnaji's greed has set those plans back. Forget the april date he has set again. April will come and go, then he will tell us september again. I never said that Obijackson was in competition with Nnaji but you will see with your eyes how swiftly the Okija plant will be completed and put into use.

I understand you but we should be using the money for building long pipelines on research on new technologies this system of energy is very expensive and getting out dated.
