Operations & Strategies

Shipping

NLNG has a total of 23 ships on long-term charter for its six-train operation. All 23 ships are utilised on an integrated scheduling basis and load at NLNG Terminal in Bonny, Nigeria, for ex-ship deliveries to buyers in Europe, South America, Gulf of Mexico (GOM) including ports in Mexico and US, Middle East and Asia.

The Plant

In November 1995, a Final Investment Decision (FID) was signed by the shareholders to build a liquefied natural gas plant in Finima, Bonny Island in Rivers State. This was followed in December 1995 by the award of a turnkey Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract to a consortium of engineering firms comprising Technip, Snamprogetti, M.V. Kellog and Japan Gas Corporation (TSKJ) for the Plant (consisting of two trains - Trains 1 and 2, called the Base Project), the Gas Transmission System (GTS) and the Residential Area.

Supply Management

As part of the Business Principles, we commit to contribute to sustainable development. This requires balancing short- and long-term interests, integrating economic, environmental and social considerations into business decision-making.

LNG

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is super-cooled natural gas, chilled to -160 degrees Celsius to condense and reduce volume. Reduced volume allows for cost-effective transportation over long distances. NLNG produces 22 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of LNG from its six-train plant on Bonny Island.

LPG (Propane/Butane)

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is super-cooled natural gas, chilled to -160 degrees Celsius to condense and reduce volume. Reduced volume allows for cost-effective transportation over long distances. NLNG produces 22 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of LNG from its six-train plant on Bonny Island.

Condensate

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is super-cooled natural gas, chilled to -160 degrees Celsius to condense and reduce volume. Reduced volume allows for cost-effective transportation over long distances. NLNG produces 22 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of LNG from its six-train plant on Bonny Island.
