A new offshore project in the Gulf of Guinea will feed gas to another LNG processing and export train at Bonny in Nigeria
Shell and Sunlink Energies and Resources have taken a final investment decision (FID) on an offshore gas project in the Gulf of Guinea that will feed a new processing train on one of the world’s largest LNG export facilities.
Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Co expects the gas project to begin production before the end of this decade to feed a seventh train at the Nigeria LNG (NLNG) plant on Bonny Island.
Shell will develop the HI gas field, discovered in 1985 in around 100 m of water depth and about 50 km from shore, initially installing a wellhead platform with capacity to drill four wells over the H1 field and a multiphase pipeline to deliver gas and associated liquids to a processing plant at Bonny.
Condensates will be separated and exported through the nearby tanker loading terminal and gas will be liquefied in train 7 of the NLNG plant.
