The NGC project, which was operated by Eni before the establishment of Azule Energy, is Angola’s first non-associated gas development, with a processing capacity of approximately 400 million standard cubic feet of gas per day (MMscfd) and 20,000 barrels of condensate per day. Gas is sourced from the offshore Quiluma and Maboqueiro fields, treated and then supplied to the Angola LNG plant for export and domestic consumption.
Today’s milestone marks a decisive step in positioning Angola as a strategic player in the global natural gas market. The NGC project supports the country's energy diversification and represents responsible resource development, enabling growth in other key sectors such as fertiliser production for agriculture.
The gas treatment plant entered the commissioning phase with gas in November 2025, marking the beginning of operations for the NGC project - achieved just 24 months after the groundbreaking ceremony in October 2023 and six months ahead of the sanctioned schedule.
