Our Bonny Island gas plant still operational — NLNG

The Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas Limited (NLNG) has faulted report that its gas plant on Bonny Island has shut down operations.

Describing the report as false and misleading,the company 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.

Andy Odeh,General Manager, External Relations and Sustainable Development,NLNG,who cleared air on the report in a statement on Friday,said the plant continues to produce LNG and LPG commensurate to the feed gas it receives from its upstream gas suppliers.

According to the statement,its cargo loading operation also continues without interruption,while the llatest cargo from the Bonny plant sailed on 17th August 2023 to the St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, carrying 140,000 M3 of LNG.

It added:”NLNG remains committed to collaborating with key stakeholders to minimise the impact of the consequent gas supply shortage”
