CNG is still being transported all over the world for small scale industries/users.

The idea of compressing the NG ensures space maximization.

We are talking of an IPP plant here. Where will they even transport the gas from?
You also need to check out the cost, is that IPP station worth all the cost that is going into its operation? Capital NO.

There are no two ways to getting gas to those IPP plants in Lagos, they will always need a gas pipeline, gas compressor facilities and underground gas units.

The idea of transporting compressed natural gas to the plant using Osinbajo's tankers is not only absurd, it is does not make any sense commercially.

What bullocks are you yapping about? There are CNG trucks designed to transport stored CNG to Power plants.


If there is a need for such design, it is very possible, it means the power plants can be ready at a short space of time, and the cost of building such power plants will be far less, as there would no need for a long stretch of gas pipelines from gas suppliers to Power plant, and the issue of pipeline vandalism is out of the way. you wrote [b][/b] My response to that is,your ignorance is not permissible or does not justify that it cant be done.

I've heard of CNG vessel tankers and I know trucks and buses that use CNG as fuel, I don't know of CNG tanker trucks in Nigeria.
Could you please show us examples of such trucks in Nigeria?

The island power project you are harping on is designed to get its CNG through a gas pipeline to be constructed from egbin to Lagos Island, they are not even talking about tankers.

The said pipeline is still a pipe dream.

The crux of my argument is you can not run a power plant of that magnitude successfully in Nigeria without having or connecting to a gas pipeline for gas supply.

Yourself and osinbajo should save us the bollocks of using tanker trucks to transport CNG to power plants.

Currently, there are over 100 production, transport and storage
facilities across the country. When LNG is returned to its gaseous
state, it is used across the residential, commercial and industrial
sectors for purposes as diverse as heating, cooking, generating
electricity and manufacturing a wide variety of products. LNG is
also used as a fuel for heavy-duty and other vehicles.

Aunty, the conversation has moved on, you came late to the party. We are not talking about LNG, ok.

We are talking about transporting CNG via tanker trucks.

Let's even talk about your regasification,

You really need to check regasification costs, especially the cost of constructing a regasification facility before using that word like it's beans.

You need to chose a single argument here - I'm referring to the 'serious boob' you claimed the prof made.

I'm no expert in power production but this much is clear - the gas supplied to households and power plants are transported as LNG and regasified.

The professor made that statement referring to the issue of transporting fuel to power plants. Now it's clear exactly what the prof was insinuating your problem is now cost?

[quote author=arresa post=31441279]Illiterate villager with worthless and unproductive governors, they've built 6 power plants and this is the only and first one in Lekki.

Even sef, the folks in lekki don't pay taxes..?




We are spending money building power plants to give uninterrupted power supply to our public institutions and facilities like water works because your crooked, corrupt and incompetent PDP and Jonascam looted us dry into continued darkness.

Btw, do they even have water works in your village to start with?[/qu

hw much do lagos state contributes to federal gvt purse?
tell me this n i will knw jonathan is stealng ur money or else ur masters are thieves.

You need to go read my post again, maybe you might just spot your prof's ignorance.

Here you go - the only boob here is you. One for even mentioning LNG in the first place and one for trying to critique the lovely professor :p

Now my question is - why isn't this being done at the existing power plants in Nigeria. Doesn't that solve the whole problem?

You showed us cylinders, where are the tankers? Or cylinders are the same thing as tankers?

Yes, I did mention LNG because I knew they were not going to power that plant with LNG.

looooool you are hilarious!!!

so now because they are cylinders and not tankers they cant be used to transport CNG?

You are the one that mentioned LNG not Osinbajo so clearly he has more knowledge on the matter than you

We are telling you something is commercially insane!

A power plant needs constant supply of gas which can be effectively met by constructing the said gas pipeline as contained in the initial design. Your gas cylinders cannot meet that demand.

Again, I requested to see that CNG tanker, you showed me gas cylinders. God dey o lol

Your prof said they will transport gas to the plant via tankers and I said does he think we are talking about LNG cos I know no sane person would want to supply gas constantly to a plant of that size, you can't just keep up.

So what you are saying is that CNG supplied via these same cylinders are not currently used to generate electricity in Nigeria? Or that it is commercially insane?

Just making sure you cant change your argument again

arresa:
Tinubu built the first IPP in Nigeria when your otuoke dullard was still a boys scout in the creeks.


Again, you people love to run your mouth but you know nothing about your country...

What a shame...

have you heard of Imiringi?
That power plant was built in the 1980s.

And it is not in Eko.

My conclusion,
APC supporters need deliverance from Alfa Bello.

owobokiri:
Another elitist project commissioned to serve the interest of the affluent first, before the suffer heads. This same fashola commissionsed a power plant some months back that was biult to power JUST Alausa, his base!!! And we have some disoriented bunch of headless APC agberos all over here shouting Eko oni nonsense. . Do you guys realise that Lagos is richer than most West african states with better infastructure? Do you realIse that with her economic clout, Lagos should be biulding her own massive plants for all including for those at Ajegunle and not just for those in Ikoyi? Where are fasholas signature projects after 8 solid years in power? Clearing of Oshodi? Turning a white elephant project like the monorail into another Ajeokuta steel plant? Now he is commissioning china made generators as power plants! Paper weight political bimbos masquereding as the new messiahs. . .

ShowYourCertificate:
But why are there incessant power outages in Lagos? Before now, they would say the FG has failed in providing power to the masses. They would also blame the FG for not removing Power Generation from the exclusive list. Now it has been removed. Each state can generate its own electricity. But we still have power outages in Lagos. Why?

APC has failed.

ednut1:
with the amount of IGR Lagos earns. fashola is a failure. jst using d money to pay his master ,planting trees about in selected areas and erecting toll gates to scam pple. elitist mumu

I pity for this country. A country where some beings supporting a party calls another one failed and clueless while their own party is worse than the one being tagged failure and clueless.

Sometimes I wonder if all these things being commissioned in Lagos are all inside the government house or the GRA. Looking at the real Lagos state before 1999, when we were still residing at Orile, we weren't supplied water by Lagos state waterboard all the time but we could still boast of little effort from the military government. Immediately after 1999, we stopped having water supply from water boards.

Since 1999, we have been buying water that we use and they say this government is working, power generation changed hands from federal controlled PHCN to Lagos state controlled Eko/Ikeja destribution companies and what did we have? Outrageous bills for darkness supply. 20-30hours power per month. With PHCN/NEPA, we could at least boast of over 150hours of power supply per month, unlike Eko and Ikeja destribution company.

They just keep a blind eye to the simple truth about APC being a failure. Lagos state government only serves the rich in areas like Ikoyi, VI, Lekki, etc.. Some poor people out there suffering as a result of mismanagement of the Lagos state tax payers money will still be singing Sai Buhari in tears.

We shall all overcome.

A thread was earlier opened on the Osinbanjo goof and the issue laid to rest.It will candidly be a waste of time and a digression discussing it here again. Search for the thread,something about "Osinbanjo does not know gas" or so.

The only reason I quoted you is to correct the misinformation and to clarify that CNG is transported every where in the world for SMALL scale industry users.
