Nigeria LNG (NLNG) has made the final investment decision (FID) regarding the Nigeria LNG Train 7 project (Nigeria). Train 7 will have a capacity of 8 Mt/year (nearly 11 bcm/year) and will raise the liquefaction capacity of the existing Nigeria LNG plant by more than 35%, from 22 Mt/year (30 bcm/year) to 30 Mt/year (over 40 bcm/year). The construction of the new train will take up to five years with commissioning expected to begin in 2024.
Nigeria LNG is a joint-venture (JV) owned by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (49%), Shell (25.6%), Total (15%) and Eni (10.4%). In September 2019, NLNG signed a Letter of Intent (LoI) for the EPC of the Train 7 with a consortium composed of Saipem, Chiyoda, and Daewoo. In December 2019, NLNG signed a 20-year supply agreement for its proposed Train 7 project, paving the way for a FID.
