Rovuma LNG Phase 1, Mozambique
Name of the Project
Rovuma LNG Phase 1.
Location
Afungi peninsula, in Mozambique.
Project Owner/s
A joint venture between ExxonMobil Development Africa, Eni and CNODC Dutch Cooperatief.
Project Description
The project aims to monetise more than 60-trillion cubic feet of gas in the deep-water Area 4 of the Rovuma basin.
The operation will have a total liquefied natural gas (LNG) nameplate capacity of 18-million tonnes a year, comprising 12 fully modularised LNG trains of 1.5-million tonnes a year each.
The plant design will feature electric-driven LNG trains instead of gas turbines, reducing greenhouse-gas emissions compared with conventional LNG projects. It will also include prefabricated and standardised modules to be assembled at the project site in Mozambique, offering cost competitiveness and certainty in delivery schedule.

Capital Expenditure
$24-billion.
Planned Start/End Date
A final investment decision is expected in 2026.
