  1. Recovery of Associated Gas for independent power generationThe Kwale – Okpai Project Nigeria Paolo LINZI Safety, Environment and Quality VP Eni E&P Division

  2. Agenda • Background: Flaring down in Nigeria • The Kwale - Okpai Project overview

  3. Eni‘s Action Plan on Kyoto Protocol • Eni Action Plan for Flaring / Venting reduction • R&D activities: CCS Project and GTL pilot project • Development of a sustainable energy model and definition of the transition path

  4. Flaring Down in Nigeria View of Nigerian flares as seen from the satellite An unusual brightness in the dark of the African continent Nigeria produces 2.3 M Bopd of oil and 6 BScf/day of associated gas. About 45% of produced gas is presently flared. Gas reserves in the country are estimated to be 180 Tcf The government through fiscal incentives has opened new markets The exportation of liquefied natural gas (N-LNG) started in 1999

  5. History of Eni in Nigeria (1) • 1962 Establishment of “Nigerian Agip Oil Company” NAOC starts exploration activities • 1973 First jv with Nigerian government (60% NNPC) • 1976 Electric power supply to Brass community • 1980 Establishment of AENR ltd • 1985 Gas re-injection in Obiafu-Obrikon plant • 1989 NAOC acquires 5% of the Shell assets (increase of about 60,000 bopd equity) • 1989 Establishment of Nigeria LNG ltd (Agip 10.4%)

  6. History of Eni in Nigeria (1) • 1994 First NGL supply to Eleme petrochemical • 1996 Establishment of NAE Ltd • 1997 Renewal of NOAC jv OMLs until year 2027 • 1999 NAOC provides first gas for N-LNG plant • 2000 NAOC defines a plan to reach “zero flaring” • 2001 NAOC signs the first electric power sale agreement for the IPP at Okpai • 2003 Start up of Abo field (first off-shore deep water in Nigeria) • 2003 Establishment of “Brass LNG Ltd” (Eni 17 %) • 2005 Start-up of Okpai IPP (first IPP in Nigeria)

  8. Agenda • Background: Flaring down in Nigeria • The Kwale - Okpai Project overview

  9. The Project Concept PURPOSE/ACTIVITY Utilization of previously flared associated gas produced in the Kwale Oil-Gas Processing plant • Transportation of the gas through a 14 km long pipeline • Use as fuel in plant and in ad hoc built Combined Cycle Gas Turbine Independent Power Plant

  10. On-grid energy installed capacity in Nigeria

  11. Project Description • IPP PROJECT PARTNERS • NNPC (60%); NAOC (20%); PONL (20%) • TECHNOLOGY • Gas dehydration, taking up ullage at the existing Kwale OGPP; • Gas compression • 14 km pipeline inter-connector from the Kwale OGPP to the IPP at Okpai • A 480 MW combined cycle gas turbine power plant

  12. Methodology Overview Approved Methodology AM0009 version 02 Recovery and utilization of gas from oil wells that would otherwise be flared

  13. Baseline and Monitoring Plan BASELINE CO2 equivalent emissions from flaring of associated gas, less: • Volume of dry gas exported from Kwale plant to OB/OB gas plant • Volume of dry gas used for reinjection at OML 60 MONITORING Ex post monitoring of various carbon flows across the gas recovery, processing, export, and emergency relief (flares) systems, plus any accidental releases through plant or pipeline failure

  14. Boundaries and Crediting Period BOUNDARIES The project boundaries are the Kwale Oil-Gas Processing Plant and the pipeline inter-connector between Kwale OGPP and the IPP CREDITING PERIOD A crediting period of 10 years (2006-2015) has been chosen OVERALL CREDITS 14.97 Miln tones CO2eq

  15. Additionality assessment

  16. Conclusions The Clean Development Mechanism A help for the Oil &Gas sector in the economic efforts to: • Cut flaring and venting emission • Deploy Efficient Technologies in developing countries The Kwale – Okpai Project A contribution to sustainable development. Its benefits: • A significant step to Eni "Zero Gas Flaring" Plan • Climate change mitigation • Deployment of sustainable technology in Nigeria • Boosting CDM projects development in Nigeria • New opportunities to implement flaring down projects worldwide
