List of Oil Companies in Nigeria in 2021

Nigeria’s sole source of income and revenue is the petroleum industry which constitutes about 95% of the foreign exchange of Nigeria as a whole. oil and gas companies plays a very crucial role in improving or downgrading the Nigerian economy and that is why I will be focusing on the petrol cap release the right area so you should be aware of them.

Oil and gas industries provide a lot of money to the government of Nigeria and statistics have shown that it contributes up to 65% of budget funds in Nigeria. Nigeria is known to be the biggest oil exporter in Africa and one of the best countries that produce oil in the whole world. Nigeria has a lot of oil reserve which is up to 17 and 22 billion barrels of oil. The other sources that claim these barrels are up to 35 billion.

Nigeria has a reserve located and can be easily found in the Delta of Niger river. Other coastal regions in Nigeria also contribute to oil and gas. Currently, in Nigeria, we have over 1400 active power wells and more than 150 oil Fields.
Nigeria also contributes to natural gas reserves as it gives up to 5300 square kilometres to the world. Nigeria’s biggest natural gas companies being handled by Nigeria liquefied gas company.
The top petroleum companies in the world work with Nigeria and others to process our crude or you and return it back to us for sale.

Oil companies in Nigeria have been divided into several categories and they are;

Upstream companies

these are the kind of oil companies that are into exploration and production of crude oil or crude gas. While some of these companies hold direct licence to produce crude oil some have partnered with licences and going to a joint agreement with them. This category is not to be one of the most lucrative aspects in the oil and gas industry.

Downstream companies

These are the kind of value companies that involved the marketing of products after refinement. These activities include lube plants, filling stations, domestic gas sales outlets, the supply and trading of crude oil as well as the terminaling is also part of this category.

Midstream companies

This midstream is the category between the upstream and downstream. the function of midstream companies is that they extract carbon resources and make downstream deals that involve marketing them after it has been processed. Refining or processing of oil is midstream. Processing gas is also midstream, they’re also companies that build pipelines or manufacture processing plant for personal use-or-lease and that is also midstream.

Oil servicing companies.

There are special contractors that help both upstream and downstream oil companies to deliver their projects. We have some oil servicing specialisations which include logistics, drilling, seismic, logistics, survey, reservoir services, data processing, well services, mud logging, data processing and others.

there are several new companies in Nigeria do the ones we usually hear about are the top ones or the ones that offer a scholarship in secondary schools and University but Nigeria is a big member of the organization of petroleum exporting countries in the world with huge mineral resources so it’s no shock that there are lots of oil-producing companies in Nigeria.
