Seplat Energy Plc, a Lagos and London-listed oil and gas producer, has said that its ANOH gas plant installation works reached mechanical completion on Dec. 29, 2023, in line with the revised timetable.
Mrs. Chioma Afe, Director of External Affairs & Social Performance at Seplat Energy, disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday in Lagos.
Afe emphasized the milestone achievement, underscoring the absence of any recordable Lost Time Incidents (LTIs) over 11 million man-hours.
- “The ANOH Gas Processing Company (AGPC), an incorporated joint venture between Seplat Energy and NNPC Gas Infrastructure Company (NGIC) Ltd, is delivering the ANOH gas plant with Phase One processing capacity of 300mmscfd.
- “Upon commencement of operations, the plant will deliver dry gas, condensate, and LPG to customers.
- “It is envisaged that AGPC will sell the gas and LPG domestically, and the condensates to the international market,” she said.
Plant to supply dry gas, condensate, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)
Speaking on the development, Roger Brown, the company’s chief executive officer, will provide wet gas sales from OML 53 as well as dry gas.
He stated that will further reduce Seplat’s and Nigeria’s carbon intensity and increase energy supplied to the Nigerian domestic market.
- “Once completed, ANOH will provide two income streams for Seplat – wet gas sales from OML 53 to the gas plant and dividends from the joint venture ANOH Gas Processing Company, which will operate the plant.
- “ANOH’s gas will further reduce Seplat’s and Nigeria’s carbon intensity and increase energy supplied to the Nigerian domestic market,” he added.
