NLNG: How Methane Reduction Can Pay for Itself, Boost Gas Revenue

The Nigeria LNG Limited (NLNG) has urged gas producers globally to treat methane reduction as a business priority, arguing that curbing methane losses can increase gas revenues, improve plant efficiency, and reduce emissions. NLNG's Managing Director and CEO, Adeleye Falade, made the call at the Gastech 2026 Exhibition and Conference in Bangkok, Thailand, stating that methane abatement should be viewed as an opportunity to recover lost gas and generate commercial returns. He spoke during a panel titled 'Capturing the Lost Opportunity: Driving Global Alignment on Methane Abatement Across Natural Gas S'. NLNG's boil-off gas and start-up recovery projects target a 10-15% emissions cut, and Falade noted that NLNG's role in gas monetisation has cut flaring from 65% to sub-20%.
