The leadership of the Nigeria-Japan Chamber of Commerce (NIJACC), led by our President, Chf. Mandyking E. Ijoma, paid a strategic visit to UTM FLNG Limited to meet with their executive team and Group Managing Director, Dr. Julius Rone (OFR).
UTM FLNG is making history by developing Nigeria’s first-ever Floating Liquefied Natural Gas facility. This landmark $5B energy project is being built in close collaboration with world-class engineering giants, including JGC Holdings (Japan Gas Corporation).
As NIJACC prepares for the landmark Nigeria Business Forum in Japan this August, 2026, our visit highlights the incredible potential of deep-tech industrial partnerships between our two nations. This project won't just scale up clean energy exports; it's a massive step forward for domestic capacity building and localized technology transfer.
