New LPG Plant in Batanga, with Target of 15 Thousand Tons, in the Etimboué Department, Ogooué-Maritime, to Supply National Market.

Perenco Oil & Gas Gabon (POGG) has just announced the official inauguration of the Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) plant in Batanga, as part of an ambitious gas development project in Gabon. The project, which began in 2006, aims to utilize the associated gases from oil fields operated by POGG, enabling the extraction of LPG for use in power plants and the national industry, as well as allowing the export of excess to the international market. This new phase aims to produce 15 thousand tons of LPG to supply the national market, representing approximately 35% of internal demand and reducing imports by more than 50%.

Additionally, the delivery of gas to Mayumba is planned, where a 20 MW power plant will be built along with a High Voltage line to Tchibanga to supply the local market, further boosting gas production and expansion in the country. It is expected that this project will create over 500 local jobs and provide stable and clean energy for more than 80,000 households, as well as an energy solution for existing and future industry in the area, consolidating Perenco’s commitment to sustainable and prosperous development in Gabon.

Expansion of Gas Production at the Liquefied Petroleum Gas Plant

The inauguration of the expansion of the Liquefied Petroleum Gas plant, led by General Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema, marked an important milestone in the country’s gas development. With the inauguration, gas production capacity was significantly increased, strengthening the country’s position as a major player in the oil and gas market.

This expansion not only helps recover associated gases from oil fields but also enables a more efficient and reliable gas delivery to meet growing demand. The development of industrial projects like this is crucial to ensure that the country maximizes its natural resources and promotes sustainable economic growth.

The functioning of this expansion will not only benefit the national economy but will also create job opportunities and foster economic development throughout the region. Furthermore, the increase in gas production will have a positive impact on gas exports, further contributing to national revenue.

The ongoing commitment to gas development is essential to ensure that the country remains competitive in the global energy market and continues to attract strategic investments in the oil and gas sector. With the inauguration of this expansion, the country is taking a significant step toward its vision of becoming one of the leading gas producers in the region, securing a prosperous and sustainable future for future generations.
