EPC Contract Win for Sixth LNG Train in NigeriaNigeria LNG Limited has awarded the EPC contract for the NLNGSix project at its existing liquefied natural gas facility to a joint venture team. The partners of the equal joint venture team, known as TSKJ, include Technip, Snamprogetti, KBR and JGC Corporation. This is the fourth project that TSKJ has contracted with NLNG. The addition of the sixth train will boost NLNG's production capacity by four million tonnes per annum of LNG, to an overall production capacity for the complex of 22 million TPA of LNG and five million TPA of natural gas liquids. The sixth train is scheduled to start up in the fourth quarter of 2007 and most of the production has been sold for North American destinations. TSKJ has been executing projects on Bonny Island for NLNG since 1995 and was awarded this contract as an option to the current NLNGPlus project (trains 4 and 5), which is currently in advanced stages of construction and scheduled to begin production next year. NLNG shareholders are Nigerian National Petroleum Company (49 percent) and subsidiaries of Royal Dutch/Shell (25.6 percent), Total (15 percent) and Eni (10.4 percent).
