On November 23, 2024, Wison New Energies (WNE) held a grand hull launching ceremony for the NGUYA FLNG project at its Nantong Yard, celebrating the achievement of 20 million manhours LTI free milestone. The ceremony marks a significant milestone in the progress of the Eni Congo FLNG project.
At the ceremony, the hull of the NGUYA FLNG project was successfully launched, and the vessel was officially named—NGUYA FLNG.
The NGUYA FLNG project was signed between Wison New Energies and Eni Group in December 2022. It is a floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facility with an annual production capacity of 2.4 million tons. The NGUYA FLNG, measuring 350 meters in length, 60 meters in breadth, and 35 meters in depth, is expected to achieve intake conditions by the end of 2025.
Upon completion, the NGUYA FLNG will be deployed offshore near Pointe-Noire, Republic of the Congo, where it will allow Eni Congo LNG project to reach the plateau rate and export about 4,5 billion cubic meters per year. The successful implementation of this project will further deepen cooperation between Wison and Eni in line with respective targets in the energy transition process.
This celebration marks not only a critical moment for the hull launch but also a demonstration of WNE’s achievements in safety management. The achievement of 20 million manhours LTI free milestone reflects the company’s strong commitment to the QHSE (Quality, Health, Safety, and Environment) management philosophy and underscores Wison’s high regard for employee safety and health.
In light of the global energy transition, Wison New Energies will continue to leverage its strong construction capabilities and innovative strength to steadily promote the development of clean energy. Looking ahead, Wison is excited to collaborate with global partners to create a bright future for clean energy.
