SBO Energy
001
An Integrated Nigerian Energy Company

National
momentum.

Nigeria holds over 200 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. SBO Energy builds the infrastructure that turns it into cheaper fuel, cleaner power and real jobs — from processing plants to the conversion centres moving the nation's vehicles onto gas.

Delivery record

Delivering
response.

When the Federal Government moved Nigeria onto compressed natural gas, SBO answered at national scale — 5,000+ CNG kits and cylinders supplied directly to the Presidential CNG Initiative, and a mega conversion centre built and operating at Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos.

One company, two engines

Unique
symmetry.

SBO's model divides into two independent, reinforcing engines: we develop the supply of gas — processing, storage, logistics — and we build the demand for it, converting vehicles, generators and industry to run on what Nigeria already has.

Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos

Proven
process.

Our mega conversion centre was built hand-in-hand with the Presidential CNG Initiative and runs today — trained technicians, certified installs, round-the-clock throughput. It is the template we are replicating across the South West.

005
Gas-to-Power

Stable
network.

Diesel is the most expensive way to keep Nigerian industry running. SBO converts generator fleets to natural gas at zero upfront cost, recovered through long-term gas supply agreements — five years on hybrid conversions, ten on new gensets.

What comes next

Beyond
gas.

Gas is the bridge, not the destination. SBO is extending into solar and renewable generation, flare-gas capture with carbon credit monetisation, and gas-fired compute — powering the data infrastructure Africa's digital economy will demand.

About Us

Built in
Lagos.

A Nigerian energy company with a global operating standard — founded 2024, working across three continents.

001
Our story

Founded for
this moment.

SBO Energy Limited was founded in Lagos in 2024, at the exact moment Nigeria committed to gas as its transition fuel. We assembled operators, engineers and dealmakers from media, finance and energy — then went straight to work as a delivery partner of the Presidential CNG Initiative, supplying equipment at national scale and building conversion infrastructure on the ground.

Today SBO spans the full gas value chain — upstream participation, processing, distribution, conversion and power — with offices in Lagos, London and Los Angeles.

What we do

Four connected
disciplines.

01 · Convert

Clean Mobility

CNG conversion centres, kit assembly with an international technology partner, cylinders and refuelling networks.

02 · Process

Gas Infrastructure

Gas processing, LPG production and flare-gas capture that turns waste into product and carbon credits.

03 · Power

Gas-to-Energy

Zero-upfront generator conversion for industry, recovered through long-term gas supply agreements.

04 · Explore

Upstream

Participation in producing assets and national licensing rounds to secure the molecules we deliver.

Vision & Mission

Energy for a
generation.

001
Vision

Africa's most trusted
gas company.

To be the partner of choice for Nigeria's energy transition — the company governments, industry and households trust to deliver cleaner, cheaper, reliable energy at national scale, and the proof that African infrastructure can be built to a global standard, by Africans, profitably.

002
Mission

Build the bridge,
own the road.

We design, finance and operate the infrastructure that moves Nigeria from imported liquid fuels to domestic gas — conversion centres, processing plants, refuelling networks and gas-fired power — creating jobs, savings and cleaner air in every community we touch.

003
How we operate

Principles under
pressure.

Environment

Cleaner by design

Every conversion cuts CO₂ by up to 30% against petrol; every flare-gas project turns waste into product. We measure impact and monetise it through carbon markets.

Social

Jobs before slogans

Technicians trained, workshops franchised, local cylinder manufacturing — 30,000+ direct jobs targeted, with opportunity flowing to the communities that host us.

Governance

Global standard

CBN-era financial discipline, international partners, and structures built for institutional capital — audited, insured and bankable.

Gas in Nigeria

The decade
of gas.

Why the world's next great energy story is being written here.

001
The endowment

Natural
abundance.

Nigeria holds 200+ trillion cubic feet of proven gas reserves — Africa's largest — yet roughly 7 billion cubic metres still flare into the sky each year while the nation imports refined fuel. The gap between what Nigeria has and what Nigeria uses is the opportunity of a generation.

Why
now.

Subsidy removal made petrol honest. Policy made gas national. The economics finally point one way.

The policy engine

The state is
all-in.

The Decade of Gas declaration, the Petroleum Industry Act, and the Presidential CNG Initiative align government, regulators and federal infrastructure funds behind one goal: move Nigeria onto its own gas. SBO is already inside that machine — as a supplier, a builder and an operator.

The road ahead

Three fronts,
one future.

Mobility

Every fleet on gas

Buses, trucks, keke and ride-hail — converted at scale through workshops, mother-daughter stations and cascade logistics.

Industry

Every genset on gas

Factories and estates off diesel and onto piped or virtual-pipeline gas — cheaper power, cleaner books.

Beyond

Every molecule monetised

Flare capture, carbon credits, LNG export exposure and gas-fired compute for the digital economy.

Where does SBO stand in all of this? Exactly where a builder should — with equipment delivered, a centre operating, plants in development and the state as a partner. The decade of gas is not a thesis we are watching. It is a programme we are executing.
