Floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) is rapidly emerging as a cornerstone of Africa’s gas development strategy, as the continent prepares for a sharp rise in demand and seeks faster, more resilient pathways to market, says energy advocacy group African Energy Chamber (AEC). According to the AEC’s ‘State of African Energy 2026 Outlook’, Africa’s natural gas demand is projected to increase by 60% by 2050, underscoring the urgency of bringing new supply online, efficiently and at scale.
