NLNG plant is not shut down- official

NLNG plant is not shut down- official

By Yusuf Yunus

The Nigeria LNG Limited (NLNG) has reiterated that operation at its plant on Bonny Island is still active despite a Force Majeure, which still subsists due to the unavailability of upstream gas suppliers’ major liquids evacuation pipelines occasioned by sabotage and vandalism.

Its General Manager, External Relations and Sustainable Development, Mr Andy Odeh disclosed this in a statement on Friday.

According to the statement, “Our attention has been brought to a report on 17th August 2023 titled “NLNG prolonged shutdown threatens gas production,” published in one of the national newspapers.

The company states that the report is false and misleading.

“The plant continues to produce LNG and LPG commensurate to the feed gas it receives from its upstream gas suppliers. Its cargo loading operation also continues without interruption.

“The latest cargo from the Bonny plant sailed on 17th August 2023 to the St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, carrying 140,000 M3 of LNG.

Odeh said that NLNG remains committed to collaborating with key stakeholders to minimise the impact of the consequent gas supply shortage
