The Pacificator vessel, operating under Sonangol Gás e Energias Renováveis, recently docked at the Soyo terminal, marking Angola LNG’s significant milestone of the 100th pressurized butane cargo shipment.
This achievement signifies a pivotal moment for the company, as highlighted in a statement.
It underscores Angola’s strides in the energy sector through harnessing its natural gas resources. Notably, Angola achieved self-sufficiency in butane gas production back in 2017, a testament to the company’s commitment and partnerships.
Moreover, 2023 witnessed the 400th shipment of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), coinciding with the 10th anniversary of Angola’s inaugural safe LNG transportation to Brazil in 2013.
Renowned for delivering clean and dependable energy, Angola LNG has earned global recognition for its reliability and professionalism.
The company’s stellar reputation mirrors the dedication and professionalism of its workforce, with 83% being local employees—an ongoing increase since its establishment.
A senior company official shared with Jornal de Angola, “Angola LNG remains committed to its vision of being a trustworthy supplier in both local and global markets, a strong community contributor, and a model for sustainable development in Angola.
Our 100th shipment of pressurized butane affirms our dedication to the country and our support for Angola’s economic growth.”
He further emphasized the company’s interest in pursuing attractive initiatives within the oil and gas sector, enhancing additional gas sources, contributing to operational sustainability, and ultimately fostering national economic development.
The impending Sanha Lean Gas Connection Project aims to gather and channel extra gas to Angola LNG’s advanced processing facilities, with the initial gas delivery anticipated next year.
