Shell Nigeria is the colloquial name for Royal Dutch Shell's Nigerian operations carried out through four subsidiaries—primarily through Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria Limited (SPDC). Royal Dutch Shell accounts for more than 40% of Nigeria's total petroleum production (899,000 barrels per day (bpd) in 1997) from more than eighty fields.

Nigeria's Gbaran-Ubie oil and gas project comes on-stream
07/07/2010
The Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria (SPDC) has begun producing oil and gas from the Gbaran-Ubie project in the Niger Delta, providing an important new source of energy for export and domestic markets.

When fully operational next year, it will be capable of producing 1 billion standard cubic feet of gas a day (scf/d), equivalent to about a quarter of the gas currently produced for export and domestic use in Nigeria. It will also produce as much as 70,000 barrels of oil per day. The project's gas processing plant is now producing 200 million scf/d from the first two wells out of a planned total of 33.

"This project will deliver substantial benefits for the country," said Mutiu Sunmonu, Managing Director of SPDC. "It will provide liquefied natural gas and oil for export and gas for electricity generation in Nigeria".

The project, which incorporates five oil and gas fields spread over a 650 square kilometre area of Bayelsa and Rivers states, has taken five years to build.

Most of the gas will go to the Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas plant in Bonny to support existing export contracts. Power will be generated with gas from Gbaran-Ubie at the Bayelsa State power plant at Imiringi, as well as a new 225-megawatt power plant being built in Gbaran by the federal government.

The construction phase created almost 6,000 jobs and some 140 Nigerian companies contributed goods and services worth more than $1 billion. In the operations phase, over 300 people will be permanently employed at the plant.

The project also includes a comprehensive community development programme. Put together in close consultation with local communities, it focuses on electricity, health, education and infrastructure.

In all, about 200,000 people will benefit from electrification projects associated with the building of the plant. Many of these have been connected to the electricity grid for the first time, while many more will benefit from the supply of back-up power from the central processing facility, ensuring continuous electricity supply to homes and businesses.

  • Shell CEO, today, predicted oil will spike to over $5 in 2011. WAKE UP, they are robbing you blind and using fake terror to gain and keep their hold. The root of ALL evil is the love of money, even terrorism.
