Nigeria LNG Ltd. (NLNG) partners made a final investment decision (FID) to expand NLNG’s 6-train LNG plant at Finima on Bonny Island, Nigeria (OGJ Online, Aug. 2, 2004). The brownfield development, which is expected to start-up in 2024, will increase the annual production capacity to more than 30 million tonnes of LNG per year from the current 22.5 million tonnes/year, Nigerian National Petroleum Corp. (NNPC) reported Dec. 27.
The expansion adds 7.6 million tonnes/year of LNG—4.2 million tonnes/year from a new liquefaction train (Train 7), and 3.4 million tonnes/year from the debottlenecking of existing trains.
NLNG is a Nigerian joint venture of NNPC 49%, Shell 25.6%, Total 15%, and ENI (NA) NV 10.4%.
In operation since 1999, NLNG has delivered over 4,700 LNG cargoes around the world.
