- Gabon to monetise flared gas via offshore LNG project
- DP World-backed Cap Lopez LNG due online in 2027

The project centres on Cap Lopez, Gabon’s main Atlantic oil terminal, where DP World’s shipyard arm, Drydocks World, is converting an existing LNG carrier into a floating storage unit, or FSU. The unit will anchor offshore gas processing and exports, allowing Gabon to capture volumes that have historically been burned off during oil production.
