Name of the Project
HI gas project.

Location
The HI field was discovered in 1985 and is situated in water 100 m deep about 50 km off the shore of Nigeria.

Project Owner/s
Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company (SNEPCo), a subsidiary of Shell plc, together with Sunlink Energies and Resources.

Project Description
The current estimated recoverable resource volumes are estimated at 285-million barrels of oil equivalent.

The project will supply about 60 000 bbl of oil equivalent a day at peak production to Nigeria LNG (NLNG; with the Shell interest 25.6%), which produces and exports liquefied natural gas (LNG) to global markets. The increase in feedstock to NLNG, through the Train 7 project, which aims to expand the Bonny Island terminal’s production capacity, is in line with Shell’s plans to expand its global LNG volumes by an average of 4% to 5% a year until 2030.

The project comprises a wellhead platform with four wells, to be installed at the HI field location, a pipeline to transport the multiphase gas to onshore at Bonny, and a gas processing plant at Bonny, from where the processed gas will be transported to NLNG and the condensate to the Bonny Oil and Gas Export Terminal.

Potential Job Creation

Capital Expenditure

Planned Start/End Date
Production is expected to start before the end of this decade.

Latest Developments
SNEPCo, Sunlink Energies and Resources made a final investment decision on the HI gas project in October 2025.
