Okay, they have tried, for almost sixty years.

PLEASE, the SEC and NNPC must ensure that the company's assets are not acquired by Oando. Wale Tinubu has consistently showed that he lacks capacity to manage multibillion dollar acquisitions which puts that company in severe debts to be acquired by AMCON which takes a toll on money meant for development.

Pls be sincere for once, where is Nigeria taking their oil to refine?

Why can't Nigeria refine her oil here, let's call a spade a spade. Buhari promised us hardship, he's started delivering.

Your multinational company cannot continue to leave , how many have u attracted to replace those that have left?

The last time it was a number of company delisted from Nigerian stock exchange , now this !

They are divesting, meaning their stake will be sold to another willing oil and gas firm. Assets usually are sold off with staffs and all

Aramco is to Saudi Arabia what NNPC is to Nigeria.

Today, Aramco is rumoured to be the most valuable company in the world and where’s your NNPC.

Private investment is good for every country...don’t use the inferiority complex of the black man as an excuse.

We are our own problem.

Buhari will give their oil block to the Russians. Chevron is owing Nigeria a big percentage of the $61bn the oil majors are owing Nigeria and they got to pay before they leave.

Yenyenyenyen truly educated my ass. Please say what you know.

NNPC has a 60/40 sharing formula with every single oil company operating in Nigeria. It's called a JV for that reason. So for every dollar Chevron makes, NNPC takes 60 cents our of it. The real question is: what happens to that 60 cents? Can Nigeria account for that money? How many jobs are realistically given on merit at NNPC? what is the state of the refineries operated by NNPC? Has NNPC developed enough to independently manage and operate the oil fields? These are begging questions.

Chevron has a merit-based recruitment procedure for the most part (even though man know man still operates in small pockets). Chevron is accountable, at least to the US government and their shareholders. One of the best-managed businesses is about to leave the country, leaving a large trail of stranded employees, with no national company big enough to take them in and someone is typing rubbish from their ass about Nigeria benefiting.

Here's what might happen - Chevron will sell offshore and onshore assets to the highest bidder. I won't be surprised if NNPC buys some of it and then mismanages it like all other national assets. Or even sell it to another single highest bidder like Otedola or Dangote the same way theý broke NEPA into 11 DISCOS and one person bought 7 of them.

Nigeria is in trouble, the signs aren't good.

You guys just speak without brains trust me! How many of these companies acquired and run by Nigerians are doing well.

Is NNPC/ NPDC doing well?? You're talking ARAMCO which is run by 80% foreign exparts. You guys are really lame in that country. Dish out unverified informations and no one cares to draw attention when necessary.

Let it be known to you guys out there once foreigners leave that country as it's happening already know that it's a Dead end.

Look at the service companies run by foreign expatriates b4 now as soon as Nigerians took over what happened

This greed, wickedness, ethnicity, religious bigotry just name it...

Chevron Quitting Nigeria To Focus On Shale Back Home


Sources said that it has started discussing with buyers to sell some of its onshore and near offshore assets in Nigeria.

Chevron is divesting itself from oil fields in Nigeria for the shale fields in New Mexico and Texas.

Sources told Reuters that it has started discussing with buyers to sell some of its onshore and near offshore assets in Nigeria.
Information on the firm’s website shows that it has a 40 per cent stake in eight offshore oil blocks with the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, which holds a 60 per cent stake in the fields.

The company, which is Nigeria’s third largest oil producer, was delivering 194,000 barrels per day, 233m cubic fit of natural gas daily and 6,000 barrels of liquefied petroleum gas as at 2018.
Chevron will not do tenders for any of the assets it intends to sell.

Reuters reports that the company joins Royal Dutch Shell and Exon Mobil in divesting itself of fossil fuel assets in the country.
