TotalEnergies Approves Ima Gas Development Project Offshore Nigeria

TotalEnergies has made a final investment decision to develop the Ima gas field in Nigeria, which will supply one-third of the gas needed for the expansion project at the Nigeria LNG liquefaction plant.

The Ima gas field is located in shallow waters near Bonny Island and will be developed with a single platform connected by a 22 km pipeline to the Nigeria LNG plant.

The production start-up is expected in 2028, with a plateau of 350 million cubic feet per day, equivalent to over 60,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day.

The Ima project is characterized as low-cost and low-emissions, with a simplified platform design, electric power supply from shore, no flaring, and permanent methane detection and monitoring.
