The Ghana Tema liquefied natural gas (LNG) import terminal project under construction by China Habour Engineering Company (CHEC) will significantly boost Ghana’s natural gas supply, CHEC said on Wednesday.
Speaking with Xinhua in an interview, the company said that the project, which is expected to be completed next year, will equip the country with an annual capacity of around two million tons of natural gas.
Wu Duogui, the project’s deputy chief engineer, said the Chinese contractor has been working full force on the project despite multiple challenges, including the pandemic, and has every confidence to believe that the project will be completed with guaranteed quality. .
“This is Ghana’s first LNG import terminal project, so it is foreseeable that an abundant supply of natural gas will boost the country’s economic progress and improve people’s lives,” Wu added.
Ebenezer Martey Doku, a 35-year-old Ghanaian CHEC worker, praised the project as a milestone and said it will address the growing needs of the Ghanaian population for natural gas, which is urgently needed in many sectors.
“The project has also created many job opportunities for locals, and working with the Chinese company has helped me hone my skills and be more competitive in the job market,” he added.
