Ghana Web: GNGC to complete Atuabo Gas commissioning by Jan ending

The commissioning process of the Atuabo Gas Processing Plant in the Western region is scheduled to be completed by the end of January, 2015, the Ghana Gas Company has said. The process was stalled in December last year due to technical difficulties.

The Ghana National Gas Company (GNGC) – operator of the Atuabo Gas Processing Plant – at the time said it was working with state power producer, Volta River Authority (VRA) and Tullow Oil – to scale certain hurdles encountered in the ongoing commissioning process – a situation which GNGC admitted affected the commissioning schedule.

The VRA, according to a statement issued Wednesday December 17, 2014 signed by GNGC Board Chairman Prof Kwesi Botchwey, nonetheless benefitted from substantial flow of gas for power production from the Atuabo plant.
