BREAKING 🚨: NNPCL NNPC Limited Technical Team Visits Eba Oil Well Ahead of Commercial Drilling in Ogun State. A technical team from the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has visited the oil well at Eba, Ogun Waterside Local Government Area, as preparations intensify for the commencement of commercial drilling operations in the state. The visit forms part of the federal government’s efforts to mobilise the technical expertise and infrastructure required for drilling, following the approval for commercial operations by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Officials of NNPCL worked alongside the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) and national security agencies to assess the site and confirm its suitability for production. The technical delegation was led by Hussein Aliyu, Project Coordinator for Enserv, who headed the entire NNPCL Enserv technical team. Other members of the team included Wasiu Adeniyi, Onwugba Kelechi, Engr. Rabiu M. Audu, Ojonoka Braimah, Ahmad Usman, Akinbosola Oluwaseyi, Salisu Nuhu, James Amezhinim, Yusuf Abdul-Azeez, Amararu Isukul, and Livinus J. Kigbu. Governor Prince Dr. Dapo Abiodun, CON described the development as a historic milestone for Ogun State, noting that the commencement of drilling at Eba could boost local economic growth, create jobs, and attract increased federal investment to coastal communities. Reports indicate the presence of hydrocarbons in the Ogun Waterside corridor, which prompted preliminary surveys and technical engagements by the NNPCL team. Ogun State authorities also conducted independent verification of the oil well’s coordinates, confirming that the discovery lies within the state’s territorial boundaries. To safeguard the project, naval security units have been deployed to the site for over 18 months, facilitated by the Ogun State Government, to protect the facility and surrounding areas. The Eba oil well project is seen as a strategic expansion of Nigeria’s oil production beyond the traditional Niger Delta region. Stakeholders say the next steps will focus on meeting regulatory standards, protecting local interests, and ensuring that commercial drilling operations proceed smoothly. Appreciation was also expressed to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his support and commitment to the development of frontier oil basins and the equitable distribution of Nigeria’s energy resources, the statement added.

PRESS STATEMENT PRIVATE SECURITY CONTRACTORS INTERCEPT 800,000 LITRE CAPACITY VESSEL WITH STOLEN CRUDE OIL Following the receipt of credible intelligence, a Private Security Contractor engaged by NNPC Ltd., Messrs. Tantita Security Services, intercepted a suspicious Vessel with a Cargo of Crude oil on board on July 7, 2023. The Vessel, MT TURA II (IMO number: 6620462), owned by a Nigerian Registered Company, HOLAB MARITIME SERVICES LIMITED with Registration Number RC813311, was heading to Cameroun with the Cargo on board when it was apprehended at an offshore location (Latitude: 5.8197194477543235°, Longitude: 4.789002723991871°), with the Captain and Crew members on board. Preliminary investigations revealed that the crude oil cargo onboard was illegally sourced from a well jacket offshore Ondo State, Nigeria. There was no valid documentation for the Vessel or the Crude Oil Cargo onboard at the time of the arrest. Further investigation into the activities of the vessel at the NNPC Ltd. Command and Control Centre also revealed that the Vessel has been operating in stealth mode for the last twelve (12) years. The last reported location of the Vessel was Tin Can Port in July 2011. Details of this arrest and the outcomes of the investigations were escalated to the appropriate Government authorities, upon which it was concluded to destroy the Vessel to serve as a strong warning and deterrent to all those participating in such illegal activities to cease and desist. Destroying vessels involved in transporting stolen crude oil is of paramount importance as a strong deterrent. The illegal trade of stolen crude oil not only inflicts significant economic losses on Nigeria and legitimate stakeholders in the oil industry, but also perpetuates a cycle of corruption, environmental devastation, and social instability. NNPC Ltd. assures Nigerians that we will sustain the momentum in the war against crude oil theft until it is brought to a halt. Garba Deen Muhammad Chief Corporate Communications Officer NNPC Ltd.
