Oil Firms Owe Banks N5.93tn Amid Losses, Theft

Data from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has shown that oil firms operating in the downstream and upstream subsectors of the Nigerian oil and gas industry are owing banks N5.93tn as of June 2022.

Operators in the downstream, natural gas and crude oil refining subsector are owing banks N4.28tn.

The data also revealed that operators in the upstream and services subsectors are indebted to banks to the tune of N1.65tn.

This shows an increase of N250bn from the total debt of N5.68tn in December 2021.

The Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria had, in March, raised the alarm over the huge losses incurred by operators in the oil and gas industry as a result of vandalism and oil theft.

The President of PENGASSAN, Festus Osifo, disclosed that over 90 per cent of crude oil pumped into the Trans National Pipeline by operators between October 2021 and February 2022 was vandalised.
