Significance Developing these blocks is critical for meeting Nigeria’s 2026 production target of 2.6 million barrels per day (b/d). This is important for increasing government revenues as well as meeting energy needs. Meanwhile, the state-owned Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited (NNPCL) owes traders some USD6bn for petrol imports. Impacts Local participation in the upstream petroleum sector may increase, with more Nigerian companies likely to obtain licences. Oil majors may limit investments in Nigeria in favour of more profitable opportunities elsewhere. Uncertainties over exchange rate stabilisation and foreign exchange availability may also deter foreign investment.
