NLNG Unveils New Brand Identity

Nigeria LNG Limited has announced a rebranding initiative featuring a new logo aimed at enhancing energy supply to Nigerians and global customers. The unveiling took place during a press briefing in Lagos, where the company also confirmed the retirement of Andy Odeh, the General Manager of External Relations and Sustainable Development. He will be succeeded by Mrs. Sophia Horsfall. The new branding reflects NLNG’s commitment to innovation and sustainability, positioning the company as more than just a gas supplier but as a comprehensive energy provider dedicated to promoting a greener environment. Odeh expressed gratitude for the media’s support throughout his 26-year tenure and requested the same for his successor. Horsfall highlighted that the rebranding signifies a commitment to providing clean, accessible, and reliable energy. She emphasized the importance of media collaboration in shaping public perception and fostering trust. As she steps into her new role, she aims to strengthen partnerships with the media to enhance NLNG’s influence and aspirations.
NLNG sustaining gas exports, local supplies amid Force Majeure challenges -Odeh

Amidst reports of Force Majeure, the Nigeria Liquified Natural Gas (NLNG) has emphatically confirmed the uninterrupted flow of sustainable gas exports and local supplies from its Rivers State facility. This confirmation directly refutes recent news articles that suggested otherwise. Andy Odeh, the General Manager of External Relations and Sustainable Development at NLNG, labeled the aforementioned reports as both false and misleading. Odeh clarified that the NLNG’s operational activities on Bonny Island remain active, despite the prevailing Force Majeure. He added that the NLNG’s cargo loading operation also continues without interruption. “The latest cargo from the Bonny plant sailed on 17th August 2023 to the St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, carrying 140,000 M3 of LNG,” Odeh said. He said the NLNG remains committed to collaborating with key stakeholders to minimise the impact of the consequent gas supply shortage. The declaration of Force Majeure came as a result of the disruption in the availability of major liquids evacuation pipelines caused by acts of sabotage and vandalism by unidentified parties. In spite of this setback, the NLNG facility steadfastly continues the production of both Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) and Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG). These outputs are proportionate to the volume of feed gas received from their upstream gas suppliers. This concerted effort caters to the demands of the domestic market. In the face of the ongoing gas supply shortage brought about by the disruptions in upstream gas supply chains, Odeh reiterated the NLNG’s unwavering commitment to collaborating closely with key stakeholders. This collaborative approach aims to mitigate the adverse impacts stemming from the gas supply shortage. Ultimately, NLNG’s confirmation of the continuous gas export and local supply operations serves as a reassurance to stakeholders and the general public alike. Despite challenges, the NLNG remains steadfast in its commitment to maintaining a stable supply of gas and fostering effective collaboration to navigate these complex circumstances.
