Olam bags $1.3bn gas deal with Gabon

The agreement with Gabon is to set up a port-based Ammonia-Urea complex.

According to OLAM, a leading global, integrated supply chain manager and processor of agricultural products and food ingredients, the signing of agreement marks an important milestone for their company.

The signed Implementation and Assignment Agreement and Definitive Gas Supply contract with RoG was for a cumulative quantity of 0.75 trillion cubic feet of natural gas for this phase of the Project for a period of 25 years at a competitive fixed price. The gas pipeline network for the delivery of the same is already in place and gas would be ready to be supplied to the Project from July 2014, the expected date of commissioning of this plant. In addition, RoG has allotted land for the Project.

Managing Director and Global Head of Olam’s Agri-Inputs business, Mr V Srivathsan said, “this is a key milestone in the implementation of this important Project as it provides certainty to the supply of natural gas at a competitive price that will allow this Project to be one of the lowest cost urea producers globally".

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
