Nigeria LNG Limited (NLNG), one of Africa’s leading energy companies, has announced the opening of applications for its 2025 Graduate Trainee Programme. Established in 1989, NLNG harnesses Nigeria’s natural gas resources to produce Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and Natural Gas Liquids (NGLs) for domestic and global markets. The company has become a critical player in Nigeria’s economic diversification and energy transition strategy.

The Graduate Trainee Programme is designed to recruit and develop high-potential Nigerian graduates across engineering, sciences, social sciences, project management, shipping, and related fields. Candidates are required to hold at least a Second Class Upper bachelor’s degree, an NYSC completion or exemption certificate, and demonstrate strong problem-solving and teamwork competencies.
According to NLNG, the initiative offers more than just a pathway to employment. Successful applicants will receive a competitive salary, structured training, mentorship from industry experts, and long-term career development opportunities within the oil and gas sector.
The programme reflects NLNG’s equal opportunity policy, encouraging applications from women and persons with disabilities, with reasonable adjustments made during the recruitment process.
Applications must include key documents such as educational certificates, a government-issued birth certificate, and NYSC certification. However, candidates are advised to carefully review the step-by-step application process and the full list of mandatory attachments via the official careers portal.
