The Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB) has lauded the signing of an agreement between an indigenous shipping company, Temile Development Company and Hyundai Mipo Dockyard (HMD) of South Korea.

Simbi Kesiye Wabote

A statement by the NCDMB’s Corporate Communications on Wednesday in Lagos said Mr Simbi Wabote, Executive Secretary, NCDMB, made the commendation in a video message at the signing of the agreement by the parties in south Korea.

The statement said the agreement was for the construction of a new 23,000 cubic meters Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) carrier vessel.

It said the new LPG carrier is expected for delivery on July 26, 2023 at HMD in Ulsan, Korea.

The statement said the company also signed a separate agreement with NSML – an integrated maritime services subsidiary of Nigeria LNG Ltd. for the construction and supervision of the vessel.

It said the LPG carrier vessel was the second that was being constructed by the Temile Development Company and sequel to the first vessel which was constructed in 2018.

According to the statement, the first vessel is currently chartered to Nigeria LNG Ltd for domestic LPG supply.

It said Wabote saluted Temile Development Company for its bullish initiative in investing in an area that was regarded as off-limits for local players.

He described the accomplishment as evidence of significant growth in capacity and confidence of local companies to play in the international arena and in complex areas of the oil and gas industry.

Wabote noted that the deal aligned with the board’s strategic plan of maximising the potential in the midstream and downstream sectors of the Nigerian oil and gas industry.

He added that this was especially as the oil and gas industry strives to actualise the Decade of Gas policy of the Federal Government.

Wabote said, “this project clearly supports our LPG penetration initiative in Nigeria and will further close the gap in LPG penetration in Nigeria.”

He stated further that the project would bring invaluable local content opportunities in technology and innovation, human capital development and research and development.

The NCDMB’s boss commended Hyundai for the work it was doing at the Brass Shipyard and other investment projects in Nigeria that would support the repair of vessels.

He also applauded NLNG for the strategic initiative of deploying 100 per cent LPG to the local market to close the gap in respect of LPG penetration in-country.

Wabote added that the company had helped in reducing cost as well as creating a cleaner source of energy for our people.

On his part, Temile’s Chief Executive, Mr Alfred Temile, said the company was delighted to execute the construction of its new LPG carrier with HMD.

Temile said the company was bringing onboard NSML to supervise the construction, as an indigenous company.

He said: “this demonstrates our commitment and support to the Nigeria Local Content Act and as well establishes our confidence in local capacity to deliver international acceptable standards.

“Having taken delivery of our first LPG carrier vessel which is currently chartered to Nigeria LNG Ltd for domestic LPG supply, we look forward to taking delivery of this new carrier in July 2023 to make an addition to the global gas supply industry.

“Working with HMD again makes us feel in very safe hands as we are confident that this eco-design/cleaner fuel vessel shall be constructed in line with international best practices and industrial regulations, thereby creating a space for the vessel in the international gas supply value chain.”

KNOW YOUR BODY PARTS: The Liver The liver is a vital organ located in the right upper abdomen, playing a crucial role in metabolism, detoxification, and digestion. It’s the largest solid organ in the body and is responsible for filtering blood, maintaining blood sugar levels, regulating clotting, and synthesizing essential proteins. The liver also stores energy, removes toxins, and produces bile, which aids in digestion Liver functions: · Metabolism and Detoxification: The liver processes nutrients from the blood, breaks down and balances them, and creates essential substances for the body. It detoxifies harmful substances like drugs and alcohol, converting them into less toxic forms for excretion. The liver plays a role in the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. It stores glycogen (a form of glucose) and vitamins, releasing them when the body needs them. · Digestion: The liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine to help digest fats. Bile also helps in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. · Blood Regulation: The liver regulates blood sugar levels by storing and releasing glucose. It synthesizes clotting factors, which are essential for blood clotting. It removes old red blood cells and processes bilirubin, a byproduct of red blood cell breakdown. · Other Functions: The liver plays a role in immunity, helping to fight off infections. It produces proteins that are involved in the immune response. The liver also stores iron and other essential minerals. Frequently Asked Questions About The Liver · What are the first signs of a bad liver? The initial signs of liver problems can be vague and subtle, often including fatigue, nausea, and loss of appetite. As the liver’s condition worsens, more specific symptoms may emerge, such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), itchy skin, dark urine, and light-colored stools. Abdominal pain, especially in the upper right quadrant, can also indicate liver issues. · Where do you feel liver pain? Liver pain is typically felt in the upper right abdomen, just beneath the rib cage. It can manifest as a dull, throbbing pain, a stabbing sensation, or a general feeling of discomfort in that area. In some cases, liver pain might be felt as an ache in the right shoulder or back. · What does liver pain feel like? How liver pain feels can vary from person to person, depending on the cause. However, most people often develop one or more of the following symptoms: Dull, persistent aches in the upper abdomen A feeling of fullness or bloating Sharp, stabbing pains that come and go Tenderness when the upper abdomen is touched · What is the best way to cleanse your liver? If you haven’t been working out, start indulging in a regular exercise regime to allow the toxins to come out of your body. Yoga, going running, hitting the gym, or a simple sauna session can also prove effective. If you want a natural liver cleanse, sweating is the way to go. · How to know if the liver is swollen? What are the symptoms of an enlarged liver? You likely won’t notice an enlarged liver on your own. In some severe cases, you might notice a feeling of bloating or fullness in your belly or an ache in your upper right abdomen. · What is the best drink to flush your liver? Many citrus fruits, including lemon, can be added to water to help stimulate and flush out the liver. Lemons are high in nutrients like vitamin C and antioxidants
