Major projects
Shell companies in Nigeria develop projects onshore in the Niger Delta and offshore in the Gulf of Guinea. These are challenging locations.
The delta is an area roughly the size of Portugal. It is half swamp, half land, with a maze of creeks and mangroves. Equipment has to be transported on barges for hundreds of kilometres.
The deep water operations are 120km offshore in water 2.5 km deep.
Gbaran-Ubie integrated oil and gas project
Once it is operating fully the Gbaran-Ubie integrated oil and gas project will significantly increase Nigeria’s gas supply.
Bonny Terminal upgrade
New facilities at the Bonny crude oil terminal have more than doubled the amount of oil it can process.
Bonga deep water project
Nigeria’s first deep water oil discovery has brought new technology to the country.
