The dominance of foreign capital and its impact on indigenous technology development in the production of liquefied natural gas in Nigeria

Review of African Political Economy, 2018, vol. 45, issue 157, 478-490

Abstract: The briefing argues that the Nigerian economy is foreign capital driven and that the rentier character of the state has facilitated dominance of foreign capital in the gas sector. Furthermore, that the control of the sector and consequent reliance on foreign technology have distorted and stagnated local initiatives toward development of indigenous technology in the production of liquefied natural gas.
