据Champion Newspapers Limited 4月24日消息，拟建的一座225兆瓦独立发电厂正在寻求壳牌尼日利亚天然气公司(SNG)的天然气供应，后者是国内领先的天然气供应公司，其客户名单上有150多家公司。
SNG董事总经理Ed Ubong表示，该公司有能力为位于尼日利亚西南部的Coodsynergyn Oil西非有限公司（CS OWA）推广的项目提供所需的所有天然气。
Ubong周一表示：“我们已经与CS OWA签署了条款协议，作为潜在天然气买卖协议的前奏。”他补充说，新的合作伙伴关系“将深化国内天然气利用，促进进一步的工业化，并使当地工业能够获得可靠且负担得起的能源，以繁荣发展并为尼日利亚人创造就业机会”。
根据条款协议，SNG将建设必要的基础设施，将发电厂连接到Escravos Lagos管道系统，以便于获取天然气。
尼日利亚壳牌能源业务部门总经理Markus Hector表示，作为联邦政府“天然气十年计划”的一部分，天然气发电项目将弥合尼日利亚的能源缺口，从而为经济带来巨大利益。
他说：“尼日利亚是壳牌的重要心脏地带，并将继续如此。我们将继续在该国投资，以帮助满足其能源需求，重点是增加天然气的地位。SNG作为壳牌能源业务线的一部分，旨在通过为尼日利亚人民和企业提供更多、更清洁的能源来推动电力发展战略。”
CS OWA董事总经理Olugbenga Odusanya博士表示，他对新电厂的前景感到兴奋，该电厂有潜力打开国内天然气市场，并为尼日利亚的工业化作出贡献。

Shell considers powering 255MW electricity project
A proposed 225 Megawatts independent power plant is seeking gas supply from Shell Nigeria Gas (SNG), a leading domestic gas supply company with over 150 companies on its customers’ list.
Managing Director of SNG, Ed Ubong, says the company has the capacity to supply all the gas needed for the project being promoted by Coodsynergyn Oil West Africa Limited (CS OWA), and to be located in Southwest Nigeria.
“We have signed the heads of terms agreement with CS OWA as a prelude to a potential Gas Sale and Purchase Agreement,” Ubong said on Monday adding that the new partnership “will deepen domestic gas utilisation, enhance further industrialisation, and enable local industries to have access to reliable and affordable energy to thrive and create employment opportunities for Nigerians.”
According to the heads of terms agreement, SNG will build the required infrastructure to connect the power plant to the Escravos Lagos Pipeline System for easy access to gas.
General Manager Shell Energy business line in Nigeria, Markus Hector, said the natural gas-fired power project would bring tremendous benefits to the economy by bridging Nigeria’s energy gap as part of the Decade of Gas initiative by the Federal Government.
He said, “Nigeria is an important heartland for Shell, and will remain so. We will continue to invest in the country to help meet its energy needs, with a focus to grow gas positions. SNG as part of the Shell Energy business line is positioned to drive the powering progress strategy by delivering more and cleaner energy to the Nigerian people and businesses.”
Managing Director of CS OWA, Dr Olugbenga Odusanya, said he was excited about the prospect of the new power plant with potential to unlock the domestic gas market and contribute to industrialisation in Nigeria.
