The Nigerian Liquefied Natural Gas, (NLNG) Limited is working on a plant expansion plan, which will lead to the establishment of Train 8, Managing Director of the company, Phillip Mshelbila has said.
Mshelbila confirmed that the company has commenced plans to float Train 8, which will be different from the previous ones as the new Train 8 will not only address the issue of increased capacity but will lay emphasis on the reduction of carbon emissions.
This is coming as the NLNG advanced on the construction of Train 7 project, projected for completion in four years.
Mshelbila, who was represented by NLNG General Manager, Production, Leye Falade at a panel session, titled: ‘Strategies for Confronting Energy Transition,’ said that the company also lay emphasis on the value it gets in keeping the environment clean not only on the huge taxes and dividend it gives to the government and shareholders.
According to him, when the company started with providing Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) into the Nigeria Market, it started with 50,000 tons and progressively the company has moved into the Nigerian market about 400,000 tons last year and now has the target to push into the domestic market about 500,000 tons.
These efforts, he said, are to reduce deforestation, reduce emissions by providing cleaner fuel as well as save lives.
