Nigeria LNG Limited (NLNG) has placed a disclaimer on oil and gas training programme organised by Almond Technical Career Development, in partnership with Deopel Engineering and School of Professional Mentoring and Capacity building, allegedly for NLNG’s Train 7 Project.

The organisers, in the publicity material, allege that NLNG mandated consultants to organise training sessions for those interested in participating in the project. They also claim that attendees of these training shall be enlisted for employment in the database of the main Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contractor.

However, NLNG in a statement issued on Tuesday and signed by Andy Odeh, Manager, Corporate Communications and Public Affairs, said:

“NLNG expressly disassociates itself from this training programme.

“NLNG IS NOT collaborating with any company for the recruitment of personnel for its Train 7 Project.

“NO COMPANY has been awarded the EPC Contract for Train 7 as the selection process is still ongoing.

“Members of the public are hereby urged to take necessary steps to verify claims of persons purporting to act on behalf of NLNG.

“Members of the public are also advised NOT to make financial transactions in response to such claims and to report any of such incidents to the appropriate law enforcement agencies.

“NLNG’s website, www.nigerialng.com or www.nlng.com, credible national newspapers and electronic media remain sources of credible information regarding NLNG’s Train 7 project.

“NLNG expressly disclaims any liability for any losses incurred by any person(s) as a result of reliance on such fraudulent communications, e-mails or publications.”
