Our project

LNG Processing Facility

The Bayelsa LNG Export Project is strategically positioned as a long-term, low-cost LNG producer, leveraging the substantial natural gas reserves of the resource-rich Niger Delta region. The Phase 1 development is scheduled to commence LNG production in 2030, establishing the project as a competitive and reliable player in the global LNG market.

Phase 1 will involve the commissioning of Trains 1-4, each with a design capacity of 1.5 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa), resulting in a total production capacity of 6 Mtpa. Upon the successful completion of Phase 1, the Phase 2 Expansion will introduce an additional four LNG trains, increasing the facility’s overall capacity to 12 Mtpa. This expansion will further strengthen Bayelsa LNG's position as a key supplier to both established and emerging LNG markets globally.

LNG Export Terminal

The LNG Export Terminal will be strategically located near the Atlantic Ocean for efficient marine access. The terminal will feature advanced storage tanks designed to meet international safety standards, ensuring secure containment and optimal thermal performance. Loading docks will be capable of servicing a range of LNG carriers, from small vessels to large tankers, allowing for flexible export operations.

In addition to storage and loading facilities, the terminal will include high-capacity pipelines, power systems, and advanced control and monitoring technologies to optimize performance, safety, and enable scalability for future growth. Built with a focus on environmental sustainability, the terminal will incorporate technologies for emissions control and water management, ensuring compliance with national and international regulations while minimizing ecological impact.

Our Subsidiaries

TWD Energy, will operate two key subsidiaries, each designed to enhance profitability and create added value:

TWD Transport Company This subsidiary will be established to provide dedicated shipping capacity for the Bayelsa LNG Project. Fully owned by TWD Energy and its shareholders, the company will play a critical role in ensuring reliable and efficient transportation of LNG to global markets.

TWD Ship Management Company This privately held limited liability company will offer comprehensive shipping services, including crew training, manning, fleet management, and consultancy. This subsidiary will support the Bayelsa LNG Project's operational needs, optimizing fleet performance and ensuring the highest standards in ship management.

Our Location

The Bayelsa LNG Export Facility will be strategically located onshore, in the shallow waters of the Niger Delta region, with direct access to the Atlantic Ocean. This prime coastal site ensures efficient logistics for LNG transportation to global markets.

As a project shareholder, the Bayelsa State Government will provide 500 acres for the project. The region already hosts major international and national oil and gas operators, including Chevron, Shell, Agip, CNPC, Addax, ExxonMobil, Total, and ENI, underscoring its long-standing suitability for large-scale energy infrastructure.

The Niger Delta holds vast natural gas reserves, with over 100 trillion cubic feet—approximately 80% of Nigeria’s total gas resources. The Gbaran-Ubie gas field in Bayelsa contains Africa's largest gas well, solidifying the region's significance as a major hub for natural gas production and export.
