The Nigeria LNG (NLNG) has clarified that its plant on Bonny Island is still operational, debunking reports of a prolonged shutdown, Andy Odeh, NLNG’s General Manager of External Relations and Sustainable Development has stated.
Odeh, in a statement released on Friday and obtained by EnergyDay, emphasized that the report claiming a shutdown was false and misleading.
According to him, despite the ongoing force majeure and challenges in gas supply caused by sabotage and vandalism of upstream gas suppliers’ major liquids evacuation pipelines, the plant continues to produce liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).
Odeh in the statement said, “NLNG receives feed gas from its upstream gas suppliers and maintains its cargo loading operations without interruption.
The company remains committed to collaborating with key stakeholders to minimize the impact of the resulting gas supply shortage.
