With the appointment of a new NNPC GMD by the President, there will be a substitution in the NLNG board.

I just pray the guy aggressively pushes for the implementation of train 7.

I just pray the guy aggressively pushes for the implementation of train 7.

I think circumstances are generally in favour of the implementation of Train 7. The president himself lamented that we are celebrating a mere 6 trains, saying "it could have been 12 trains if all had gone according to plan" which could translate to commitment on the part of FG (via NNPC the largest shareholder) towards expansion of NLNG's capacity hence Train 7. Yes the oil market is on the downturn. Oil companies are cutting expenditure including postponing and scrapping proposed projects. That should normally affect NLNG because it is basically a consortium of oil companies. Natural gas prices have also been affected with NLNG reportedly having lost 30% revenue as at April this year compared to 2014. However, to quote GM Commercial NLNG, "when you have this kind of reduction of revenue in terms of pricing, one of the other ways to mitigate this is to increase your volume and gain market share" which is exactly what Train 7 will help NLNG achieve especially with long term SPAs having been already executed with 5 buyers. In light of all this it is very probable that train 7 will go ahead as planned, which is good news in terms of employment opportunities with them. Just my thoughts.

Your thoughts are good and of course logical. Especially as it looks like it'll will further help our course.

Niger Delta Youths To Shut Down NLNG Facilities Over Planned Lagos Shipyard:

how can you explain liquefaction in bonny and ship dockyard in lagos.[i][/i]

maybe there is some unseen strategy?

Niger Delta Youths To Shut Down NLNG Facilities Over Planned Lagos Shipyard:

https://www.nairaland.com/2503395/niger-delta-youths-shut-down

First off, are you in engineering, sciences or arts? As you thinking is suspect. Can you not make informed guesses? This is an enlightened forum, don't bring tribal thinking here.
If the dry dockyard is sited in Bonny, how many ships can it service easily? You guessed it, NLNG ships solely ; not even ones from Onne port. If sited in Lagos, services thousands. Now that's an economic decision. The dockyard will be run as a revenue making entity hence needs maximum traffic to be profitable.
Please reason constructively on this thread because for one reason or the other you will be in a decision making position soon and cannot afford you spewing laced hate it tribal sentiments.

I don't know what's going on here. Most people are looking for an avenue to insult or belittle another in the name of correction. what's the point? simple issue, someone will just write a full page insulting another. it doesn't go down well with me abeg. If you insult someone trying to correct him/her then you need to evaluate your communication skills. Going forward, please let's learn to make our point without insults. Na beg I dey beg.

What u have just said makes sense in every way one looks at it. But I am curious to know how u arrived at the conclusion that the submission u quoted is tribally colored.
I read what u quoted and all it suggests, to me, is a curious person trying to know why NLNG is operating from Rivers and is involved in a plan to build a shipyard in Lagos. Since both states have access to the sea.
Ur reply is enlightening in every respect but I don't think it is appropriate to accuse of him of what u did and impugning his person. U probably have interacted with many people who have argued against the location of the project based solely on sentiments rather than logic and that has reinforced ur bias against similar arguments. I have been dealing with that sort of argument and trying to disabuse people of such notions all day here. So I understand.
I will advice u edit ur reply to him. People will come and read this thread and ur reply may incite them as well against an innocent (hopefully) question and the character of the person asking the question.
Cheers

PLEASE, go back and RE-READ my comments and question.

I think I deserve an apology for your numerous insults and as you rightly said "This is an enlightend forum".

Please, do the needful.

I think you misunderstood the dockyard to mean a port (or more appropriately an LNG export terminal) which it is not. The planned dockyard by Badagary Ship Repair and Marine Engineering Limited will serve to "bridge the gap created by the absence of an operational dockyard to cater for the repair and maintenance of Very Large Crude Carriers, LNG carriers, large and medium size carriers, drilling rigs and supports vessels." So it's basically a vessel service center and unlike in the case of an export terminal, they don't have to be side-by-side with the liquefaction plant. I think when it comes to siting such an all-purpose facility, the amount of traffic is among the major considerations (as @dway4ward mentioned though I take exception to the way he apparently concluded on your motives) plus NLNG said that Badagry was chosen (by the company) "after feasibility studies were carried out at various sites (Onne, Bonny, Olokola, Badagry, Ogogoro Island, Ladol, etc.)"

And true the dry dock is not NLNG's, they are merely promoting its development by "the investment community."

fyi...

Great, I see the "unseen" strategy now, its a good one as the business traffic is more in Lagos. However, We need good PR and proper stakeholder engagement so that this restive youths get to understand this.

You have been too aggressive in your response. The gentleman deserves an apology.

The issue now is how to make the N.D guys understand the importance of the decision.. If possible, sit with them and discuss some other alternatives on how to settle issues with them.. Maybe, a smaller branch at Bonny can settle the issue.

Haba mana, I am not violent or proud. I had read through the attached thread and didn't want those kind of thoughts displayed here. I tried to snuff out fire before it developed.
I value my teams alot ooohhh. Oya back to the matter, whither the PH peeps, your level of confidentiality na him high pass. Simple confirmation of assessment day finish una no wan provide.
It'll really be good to complete these recruitment exercise, 2 friends got the NDDC scholarship and will supplement with personal cash, make the results comot before resumption ooh. Mid September is here already.

Waoh! Thought the FEDP was coming to an end after the current batch? Interesting to see you guys promoting the forum.

At all, this is a very good program o! Na here I first see full surface Production facility. They've got everything from separators to pipeline including pig launcher and pig receiver. They just bought and installed two Christmas trees join

Dear NLNG,

Kindly recruit everyone awaiting your decision.

Resumption could be In batches. ..

Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.

sure safe to say ACs are over now. The real wait begins... #nerveRacking #GodSpeed

And thus, let the sharing begin..
Any new thing we need to know.??
..
After these 120 pple are taken, are there going to be waiting-lists and other batches.??
Any idea please.??

Well, after me and the other 119 have resumed, I doubt our organization (The NLNG) will have more people on waiting list or other batches.

This 120 figure that you guys are throwing around with reckless abandon...

The wait is on...fingers crossed. Get busy while waiting.....

When I was asking the question, I was concerned about the 121st person., because I already knew I am among the 1st 50.. Other people may trust human beigns, but I trust God..
But then, I trust that God will have mercy on the 121st person (at least up to the 130th person), and wipe their tears too..
They have tried too..
NLNG is a good firm. I know they will consider.

Hi Airsaylongcon,

The FEDP is not ending anytime soon, rather the vision is expanding to encourage more philosophers and groom nation-changing professionals.

We sincerely appreciate the endorsement.

Photos of the construction progress of the FEDP Pilot Oil & Gas Surface Production Facility in Lekki, Lagos, will be uploaded on the Forum periodically.
