Bayelsa Partners US Energy Firm Fulcrum LNG to Combat Gas Flaring and Boost Power Supply.
The Bayelsa State Government has entered into a partnership with United States based energy company Fulcrum LNG to develop a gas gathering facility aimed at reducing gas flaring, improving environmental sustainability and expanding access to electricity.
The proposed facility is expected to capture natural gas that would otherwise be burned off during oil production and channel it into productive use, including power generation and other energy related activities.
The partnership reflects Bayelsa’s efforts to harness its abundant natural gas resources to support economic development, strengthen energy security and address environmental challenges associated with oil and gas operations in the Niger Delta.
Fulcrum LNG is a US based energy infrastructure development company specializing in natural gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects, including gas gathering, processing and power generation solutions.
The company’s approach involves developing infrastructure that enables governments and industry operators to commercialize stranded gas resources while reducing waste and improving energy availability.
