The Otakikpo 12MMSCFD LPG Extraction Plant is fully operational. The plant is an associated gas utilization project and a critical part of the FOML’s gas flares-out project aimed at eliminating gas flaring and industrializing the host community by using the gas to generate energy to the benefit of both the host community and the country at large.
The Otakikpo 12MMSCFD LPG Extraction Plant will supply approximately 60 metric tons of LPG (cooking gas) daily to the domestic market.
The plant operates on a hybrid system and consists of four major processes: compression, dehydration, refrigeration, and hydrocarbon separation. The project reiterated FOML’s intention to showcase the success of the project to other industry players and the Government as one of its contributions to eliminating associated gas flares in Nigerian oil fields.
The Otakikpo 12MMSCFD LPG Extraction Plant underscores the importance of delivering reliable and affordable energy to the world while maintaining environmental and social excellence. It is the progress made in our efforts to ensure the greenhouse effect is eliminated in FOML operations.
It is our sustainable culture that propelled FOML to prioritize, plan, and implement the development of associated gas reserves in parallel with the oil reserves; a very atypical strategy that separates us from our peers in the industry.
First Otakikpo Midstream Ltd (FOML) will continue to strive to be positioned as one of the elite companies to deliver the energy the world deserves through a powerful combination of capital efficiency, low costs, and sustainable development
