Nigeria LNG Ltd (NLNG) has signed agreements with NNPC Ltd and several oil companies to deliver 1.29 billion standard cubic feet of gas per day (bcf/d) for 20 years in support of its liquefaction plants and expansion projects, Reuters reported a statement released by the company.
The contracts, which include options for extension, involve partners such as Shell Nigeria, Oando Group, Aradel Holdings, and First E&P. They are aimed at addressing persistent upstream gas supply gaps while driving Nigeria’s energy transition and industrialization goals.
The gas volumes will be ramped up progressively to feed the $10 billion Train-7 project on Bonny Island in Rivers State, which is currently 80% complete.
NLNG is Nigeria’s flagship liquefied natural gas company and one of Africa’s largest gas producers. It is a joint venture co-owned by NNPC Ltd (49%), Shell Gas (25.6%), TotalEnergies (15%), and Eni (10.4%).
