Verification Analysis

Finding: The claim that Nigeria LNG is building a seventh production train is ACCURATE.

Reasoning:

• Nigeria LNG currently operates a six-train gas liquefaction plant complex producing 22 million metric tons per annum (MTPA) of LNG¹.
• The Train 7 project was approved with a Final Investment Decision on December 27, 2019, and the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction contract was awarded in May 2020 to the SCD JV Consortium (Saipem, Chiyoda, and Daewoo)²³.
• The project has reached approximately 88% completion and is expected to come online in 2026³.
• Train 7 will add 8 million tonnes per annum of production capacity, increasing Nigeria LNG's total liquefaction capacity from 22 MTPA to 30 MTPA (a 35% increase)³⁴.
• The project includes building a 7th Complete Train (CT), a Common Liquefaction Unit, new LNG jetty, condensate stabilization unit, and associated infrastructure¹.
