The Cabinda Gulf Oil Company (CABGOC), a subsidiary of Chevron, has successfully achieved first gas from its Sanha Lean Gas Connection project in Angola.
Valued at $300 million, the project involves the development of a platform that connects to the Sanha condensate complex and features pipelines linking Blocks 0 and 14 to the Angola Liquefied Natural Gas (ALNG) facility and the Soyo power plant.
The first phase of the project will deliver approximately 80 million standard cubic feet of natural gas per day (mmscf/d) to the ALNG plant.
The second phase will increase the supply by an additional 220 mmscf/d, bringing the total feedstock to Angola LNG to 600 mmscf/d.
“Achieving first gas from the Sanha Lean Gas Connection demonstrates CABGOC’s success in maximizing value from existing resources in Block 0 while enhancing its capabilities in Angola.
As a long-term partner in the country, Chevron continues to build on its 70 years of operational excellence in Angola, committed to providing reliable, affordable, and lower-carbon energy for the benefit of the people of Angola,” said Billy Lacobie, Managing Director of Chevron’s Southern Africa Strategic Business Unit.
