LNG

Italian energy company Eni has started natural gas production from the Sankofa gas field offshore Ghana as the West Africa nation still awaits firm progress on one of the various LNG import projects it has been involved in to meet its growing energy needs.

Gazprom Global LNG, part of the trading arm of the Russian natural gas company, said it signed an initial 12-year gas sales agreement with Ghana National Petroleum Corp., the state-owned energy company in the West African nation.
