NLNG plant is not shut down
The Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas (NLNG) Limited has discredited media report stating that its plants are in prolonged shutdown and threaten gas production.
Nigeria LNG Limited (NLNG) states that the report is false and misleading, its spokesman, Mr Andy Odeh, declared in a statement.
“NLNG reiterates 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.
“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.
“NLNG remains committed to collaborating with key stakeholders to minimize the impact of the consequent gas supply shortage.”
