Bonny, Nigeria
Bonny (originally Okoloma) is a traditional, coastal town and local government area (LGA) in Rivers State in Southern Nigeria, located on the eponymous island on the Bight of Bonny. It is also the capital of the Kingdom of Bonny.
The region produces a type of crude oil known as Bonny Light oil. Much of the oil extracted onshore in Rivers State is piped to Bonny for export. It has the biggest LNG gas plant in Nigeria, with six trains. Currently, the Federal Government of Nigeria has set plans for the construction of the seventh train of the NLNG to boost its gas production in anticipation of dominating the African market.
Bonny has a bridge being constructed from Bodo in Gokana LGA (also in Rivers State) to enable land transportation. A deep seaport is underway as a corporate social responsibility project from CCECC.
