Taqa Arabia Unit Signs Deal for Tanzania's First Small-Scale LNG Plant

Taqa Arabia's LNG arm Rosetta Energy Solutions has signed a binding gas sale agreement to develop Tanzania's first small-scale liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant with the Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation and pan-African investor Africa50.

The project, which aims to begin commercial operations in 2027, will supply domestic gas for industrial, residential, and transport customers across Tanzania who sit outside the existing pipeline network.

This deal follows a broader regional LNG push by Rosetta Energy Solutions, which has inked similar framework agreements with Equatorial Guinea in 2022 and Mauritania in 2023.
