Philip Mshelbila
Dr. Philip Mshelbila is the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas Limited (NLNG). He has highlighted the significant operational challenges faced by NLNG due to repeated attacks on gas pipelines by vandals, leading to a decrease in the company's ability to meet global liquefied natural gas demand. During a recent panel discussion at the Nigeria International Energy Summit, he expressed concerns over energy security in Nigeria, noting that only two of the company's six gas trains are currently operational due to pipeline damages. Mshelbila has called for urgent attention to the security of gas infrastructure to prevent further detrimental impacts on Nigeria's LNG exports.
