Analysis

The Pan Ocean Gas Utilization Project in Nigeria is a CDM fugitive gas project with VVB-confirmed additionality, but suffers from significant baseline over-estimation (actual reductions are 59–82% below PDD projections), questionable 0% leakage treatment, and multiple post-registration design changes. The project is delivering far less than originally estimated, which is conservative for the credit buyer but raises questions about the robustness of the underlying project design and monitoring.
