Eni announces the first gas delivery from the New Gas Consortium (NGC)’s Quiluma field, a major milestone for Angola’s energy sector.

Initial gas export from Quiluma is set at 150 MMSCF/day, with output expected to ramp up to 330 MMSCF/day within 2026. Gas will be treated at the NGC gas treatment plant in Soyo, inaugurated in November 2025, and then supplied to the Angola LNG plant for export and domestic consumption.       

NGC (Azule Energy, operator, 37.4%; CABGOC, 31%; Sonangol E&P, 19.8%; TotalEnergies, 11.8%) has been operated by Eni before the establishment of Azule Energy, an Eni upstream satellite. NGC focuses on the development of the first non-associated gas fields in the Republic of Angola and is set to both maximise the country’s LNG export and the utilization of domestic gas for local development.     

Azule Energy, a bp and Eni company, produces more than 230,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day and is a key contributor to Angola’s energy development and transition.
