NIGERIA PLANS TO STOP OIL SWAPS AND GO DIRECTLY TO REFINERS

Nigeria will replace crude oil swap agreements in March with a system under which it will directly sell crude oil to refiners and purchase refined oil products from them, the state oil company said some days ago.

Nigeria, Africa’s biggest oil producer, is almost wholly reliant on imported gasoline, kerosene and other petroleum products, despite exporting around 2 million barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil. Efforts to revamp the country’s own long-neglected refineries have met with limited success.

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) said in November that it would move away from swap agreements, also called “offshore processing arrangements” (OPAs), to improve transparency.

“The crude-for-products exchange arrangement popularly referred to as crude swap will be replaced by a Direct-Sale-Direct-Purchase (DSDP) arrangement which would take off next month,” NNPC spokesman, Ohi Alegbe, said some days ago.

Alegbe said this had been announced by Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu, minister of state for petroleum resources, during an appearance before a parliamentary committee set up to investigate NNPC swap arrangements. (Guardian)

EXPORT

Hmmm!!! Folks, let us say the truth and shame the #devil.

Nigerians cannot continue to lose money to #foreigners in the course of export #business. Exporters, would you like to keep on being scammed?

EXPORT

Fellow #Nigerians, are you aware that our #crude #oil will soon become useless? Yes, it will, in no distant time, become #valueless owing to the fact that the #countries that rely on it as their only source of #energy are developing more affordable #alternative sources of energy. When this finally happens, what will we do? How are we currently preparing for this imminent #economic doom? Which other sector will continue to stabilize our economy? Nigerians, the only #solution is developing the #agricultural sector. In fact, this is the only #solution. Very soon, the major source of revenue will become agriculture and #agro-exports. How are you positioning yourself to play big in agro-export #business?
