Constructed by Samsung for Whole, with closing engineering finished on the Ladol Free Zone in Lagos, the Egina vessel is a milestone in Nigeria’s oil trade.
This 330m-long large was towed 130km off the coast of Nigeria to Whole’s Egina deep offshore subject. It departed in late August, and as soon as it’s plugged into 44 subsea wells, it should draw up 200,000 barrels per day of crude — some $70m at right this moment’s costs.
We spoke to Jide Jadesimi, the top of enterprise growth at Ladol, about making issues in Nigeria, build up the talents base for industrialisation, and pay for all of it.
