Nigeria's Oil Licensing Round Aims to Boost Production and Reserve Targets

Nigeria's ambitious 2025 oil licensing round aims to boost production and reserve targets. The Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission seeks to add 500 million barrels to the country's reserves and increase crude oil production by 300,000 barrels per day within three years.

Stakeholders emphasize that protecting oil assets is crucial for achieving these objectives. They argue that improved security must accompany investment initiatives to attract investors and support stable production levels.

The Federal Government engaged Tantita Security Services Nigeria Ltd to support the protection of oil assets in the Niger Delta region. The company works alongside other security agencies in carrying out surveillance activities aimed at protecting oil facilities and supporting stability in the region.
