Victoria Oil & Gas’(VOG’s) subsidiary, Gaz du Cameroun S.A. (GDC), is now supplying approximately 4.5 Mmscf/d of gas to the 16 Altaaqa Gensets installed at Bassa Power Station. Following the pipeline connection to Bassa by GDC and the successful installation of the Gensets by Altaaqa, 20MW of power generated is now being fed into the grid. Total GDC gas production has risen from 4.5 Mmsc/d to approximately 8.5 Mmscf/d.
With the Bassa power supply online, Altaaqa will now focus on completion of Genset installation at the 30-MW Logbaba Power Station. The original schedule of having all 50MW online by the end of March 2015 is now expected in April 2015 due to shipping delays.
Kevin Foo, executive chairman, said: “4.5 Mmscf/d of gas from Logbaba to supply 20MW of power from Bassa to the national grid is a proud achievement for GDC and an important step forward for Cameroon. Our partners Altaaqa and ENEO deserve hearty congratulations. All companies are now focussed on delivering the 30MW from the Logbaba Station.”
