NPA, NLNG Deepen Partnership For Increased Exports
By Jerry Aguigbo
In a bid to further deepen the operational collaboration necessary to grow exports, Managing Director / CEO Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), Dr. Abubakar Dantsoho received the Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Liquiefied Natural Gas (NLNG) Limited, Dr. Phillip Mshelbila on Monday 20th January, 2025 at NPA Headquarters in Marina.
Dr. Mshelbila who spoke during the visit, expressed Nigeria LNG’s appreciation for NPA’s continued support, even as he solicited increased synergy as NLNG Limited is expanding its LNG production capacity to take advantage of increased global demand.
Responding, Dr. Dantsoho said “imbued by the mandate of the Honourable Minister of Marine and Blue Economy Adegboyega Oyetola for the NPA to support the increased export orientation of the Federal Government, we assure you of our unwavering support. Nigeria LNG (NLNG) has played a key role in Nigeria’s economic development and export growth since inception. We will grow this partnership,” he said.
Nigeria’s attainment of trade surplus of 5.81 trillion naira (or 3.7 Billion USD) in third quarter of 2024 as reported by the Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) foreign trade alert was through exports predominantly consummated on the platforms of the Nigerian Ports Authority.
