NNPCL called it a major boost towards strengthening Nigeria’s energy transition and economic growth. NNPC Limited, alongside “leading upstream gas suppliers” said they have signed Gas Supply Agreements (GSAs) with Nigeria LNG Limited (NLNG) for a daily supply of 1.29 billion standard cubic feet of Feedgas. The agreements which have just been signed at the company’s House in Abuja according to the embattled firm reflect a commitment to sustainable gas development and industrialization.
Energy Window International (Media) learnt that the 20-year GSAs, with extension options would involve key industry players such as Shell Nigeria Gas, Amni International, Sunlink Energies, First E&P, SNEPCo, NNPC Gas Marketing Limited, NNPC E&P Limited, Oando Group, as well as Aradel Holdings.
Dr. Philip Mshelbila, Managing Director/CEO of NLNG, described the agreements as a game-changer and capable of ensuring a reliable gas supply to NLNG’s Bonny Island plant as well as boosting Nigeria’s global energy market presence while supporting whatever industrialization or economic aspirations Nigeria may want achieve.
