Gas-based industry
The Gas Revolution Industrial Park at Ogidigben is planned on about 2,700 hectares to host fertiliser, methanol, petrochemical and aluminium plants. After years of delays, a development deal worth about $20 billion was announced with Alpha GRIP Management Company and China National Chemical Engineering International Corporation.

A major gas-fired power station sits outside Ughelli, and the Kwale Free Trade Zone is being built around a connection to the OB3 gas pipeline. In Effurun, the Petroleum Training Institute and the Federal University of Petroleum Resources train engineers and technicians for the oil and gas industry.
