Government, investors to finalise negotiations on LNG next month

Dar es Salaam. The government expects to finalise agreements with international companies for the development of a proposed liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant next month after scrutinising the drafted documents.

Negotiations have been ongoing between Tanzania and global oil majors, but the Petroleum Upstream Regulatory Authority’s (PURA) director general, Mr Charles Sangweni, said yesterday that the agreements will be reviewed by the end of February this year before being submitted to the Attorney General’s Office (AG) for vetting.
