The Nigerian Liquefied Natural Gas(NLNG), has set aside $5.5bn Train-7 investment for local industries.
Also, 12, 000 jobs and additional 40,000 would be available for Nigerians in the project development.
The managing director and chief executive officer of the firm, Tony Attah, also said, the project would deepen peace and development in the oil rich Niger Delta region.
Attah also noted that the local content component of the project is to demonstrate the improved capacity of Nigerian companies and personnel in the oil and gas sector, based on the impacts of the Nigeria Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB), on the sector.
