The MD/CEO Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas, Dr. Philip Mshelbila said in Lagos on Tuesday that
NLNG’ assets and facilities are not affected by flood currently ravaging some parts of the country.
He disclosed this during the 15th anniversary of the Domestic Supply Obligation Programme with an international Conference and Exhibition themed: “15 Years of Domestic LPG Supply Intervention: Looking Back and Looking Forward.”
“Our capacity to produce is intact. We would continue to load, and want to assure Nigerians of our corporation.”
The President of the Nigerian Liquefied Petroleum Gas Association (NLPGA), Mr. Felix Ekundayo in his remark disclosed that NLNG’s domestic supply intervention created the much-needed foundation for what has grown from a 60,000MT market in 2007 into a 1.3MT market and is still growing.
He added that one of the most important hallmarks of the intervention by NLNG was that, “it has drastically reduced supply disruptions and birthed several indigenous companies in Nigeria’s LPG market”.
To celebrate the milestone achievements, Ekundayo said
‘‘This 15th year anniversary which coincides with the Decade of Gas as announced by the Federal Government of Nigeria presents an auspicious time to celebrate the achievements of this programme and deliberate on what opportunities a 200 million population presents especially in areas of power generation, autogas, agriculture and technology as low hanging fruits”.
The event co-hosted by the NLNG and NNPC starts today, 25th and will be rounded off on the 26th October, 2022 at Eko Hotels and Convention Center, Victoria Island, Lagos.
In attendance are key industry leaders from the public and private sectors, technocrats, importers, marketers, traders, and for the first time, young professionals as part of NLPGA’s efforts to nurture early interest in the sector.
