Nigeria LNG Train 7: A Milestone for Local Content and Manufacturing
The $10 billion NLNG Train 7 project represents a transformative opportunity for Nigerian manufacturers and service providers. Learn how local companies like Lolite Energy are contributing to this landmark expansion.
Introduction
Nigeria LNG Limited's Train 7 project is one of the most significant developments in Africa's energy sector. With a projected investment of $10 billion, this expansion will increase Nigeria's LNG production capacity by 35%, from 22 to 30 million tons per year.
Local Content Requirements
The Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB) has set ambitious targets for local participation in the Train 7 project. This creates unprecedented opportunities for Nigerian manufacturers to supply critical components including:
- Structural steel and fabrication services
- Pipe products and fittings
- Fasteners in various grades (carbon, stainless, duplex)
- Valves, gaskets, and heat exchangers
- Engineering design and documentation
