Why Oil revenue in 2016 budget is just 820 billion naira? An Explanation!! by Nobody: 9:51am On Dec 24, 2015
chosen04:
With respect to the recent Budget presentation by the Nigerian Junta Head, Gen. Mohammed Buhari for the 2016 fiscal year, the Coodinator of All Coordinators (COC) and the Spokesman of Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB), went on his facebook page to deconstruct Buhari's lies.

Excerpt: . . DECONSTRUCTING BUHARI'S 2016 BUDGET OF LIES & DECEIT----Part-1


QUESTIONS BY IPOB:

3) Can Buhari and his gangs explain what happened to the difference between the 2016 Gross earning and 2016 Expected revenue which stands at N5.2828 trillion? If N820 billion (13.44% of Gross earning) is the net, then is N5.2828 trillion (86.56% of Gross earning) the cost of production for the 803 million barrels?

IPOB is asking Buhari and his gangs!!! Source: www.thebiafratimes.co/2015/12/deconstructing-buharis-2016-budget-of.html

The IPOB guy did not understand the budget. let me help him explain.


[size=14pt]Why Oil revenue in 2016 budget is just 820 billion naira? An Explanation!![/size]

1. The Federal government budget is the Budget of the federal government alone. Not the Budget of the country.
Thus from the Nigeria sharing formula, the Federal government takes about 54% of the total oil revenue accruing to the country (Nigeria Federation).

2. Most of the oil production in Nigeria are JV and PSC. Using the JV template, Nigeria (the federation not Federal govt) only owns 60% of the oil produced and the Oil companies owns the remaining 40% of the oil produced per day .

thus the 2.2 million per day, only 0.6*2.2million=1.32million belong to Nigeria (The federation).

Federal govt share (Potential) = 0.54*1.32million=712,800 per day.

3. The actual average production per day is about 80% of the Potential production
this is because of 20% shutdown for maintenance, unplanned shut downs, pipeline vandalisation etc.

Thus the Federal govt actual average production per day = 0.8*712,800=570,240.

4. Today the average cost of production per barrel in Nigeria is about $18 per barrel.
Actually some onshore field cost are as low as $10 per barrel while some deep offshore and shallow offshore cost are as high as $25 dollar per barrel. Today more than 60% of Nigeria crude are from Offshore. thus using an average cost of $18 per barrel is realistic considering also "carry agreement" (to be explain in the last paragraph) which Nigeria have with oil company.

According to CNN the operational cost of one barrel of oil in Nigeria is $15 while the capital cost is $16 making a total cost of $31.
While operational cost is daily cost, Capital cost is not. Capital cost are usually recovered within 2 to 3 years. However since capital investments are mostly in form of carry agreement, giving it a 20% cost of capital cost ($3) is reasonable. Thus we can use daily cost of ($15+$3=$18)

Thus out of the $38 dollar per barrel price of oil, the net revenue to the govt is about $20 per barrel. (Selling price ($38) minus Cost price ($18) = $20)

thus the expected revenue to federal government from direct sales of Crude oil in 2016 is:

= $20 *199naira/1$ *570240*366*billion/1000000000= 830billion naira


From my estimation the Federal government expected revenue from direct oil sales is about 830billion naira which is very close to 820 billion naira estimated from federal government.


However, this is not all the federal govt get from having oil in this country. The oil companies pay company tax in hunderds of billion of naira.
But the govt choose to call it company tax because other companies that are not oil companies pay tax too. However the company Tax of oil companies is about 85% of their profit. Thus of the about 1.5 trillion naira expected revenue from Company Income Tax (CIT), Value Added Tax (VAT), Customs and Excise duties, and Federation Account levies, about 50% of it are coming from oil companies.


Also another reason the govt is not getting much more currently from Direct oil sales is because of "Carry agreement"
Most of the recent oil development and investment in the last ten years on JV contract are mostly done on "Carry agreement".

Carry agreement is the contract between the govt through NNPC and Oil companies whereby the Oil companies provide all the fund to invest in new field development (Instead of NNPC providing 60% of the cost), and then the companies recover their money by collecting part of the federal govt oil share over time. That means some of the oil that would have got to the Federal govt today have been collected by the federal govt ahead of time in the past. So they get less today.

1. The Federal government budget is the Budget of the federal government alone. Not the Budget of the country.
Thus from the Nigeria sharing formula, the Federal government takes about 54% of the total oil revenue accruing to the country (Nigeria Federation).

2. Most of the oil production in Nigeria are JV and PSC. Using the JV template, Nigeria (the federation not Federal govt) only owns 60% of the oil produced and the Oil companies owns the remaining 40% of the oil produced per day .

thus the 2.2 million per day, only 0.6*2.2million=1.32million belong to Nigeria (The federation).

Thus the Federal govt actual average production per day = 0.8*712,800=570,240.

4. Today the average cost of production per barrel in Nigeria is about $18 per barrel.

Today more than 60% of Nigeria crude are from Offshore. thus using an average cost of $18 per barrel is realistic considering also "carry agreement" (to be explain in the last paragraph) which Nigeria have with oil company.

Thus out of the $38 dollar per barrel price of oil, the net revenue to the govt is about $20 per barrel. (Selling price ($38) minus Cost price ($18) = $20)

thus the expected revenue to federal government from direct sales of Crude oil in 2016 is:

= $20 *199naira/1$ *570240*366*billion/1000000000= 830billion naira

You are just wasting your time because these people won't understand what you meant by JV and PSC.
The time and effort you used to explain this thing to this bunch of dullards could have been used to do something more profitable.

Yes you are right. the budget summary only clearly stated crude oil revenue. Gas was not clearly stated in the summary speech by the president.

However, it is highly likely it must have been clearly stated in the full document submitted to the National assembly.

We only have access to what the president stated in the speech which is a summary of the budget.

bro I don't agree with you on that.
oil contribution to Nigeria economy is not little but very massive.

Actually to the budget oil contribute about 1.5trillion (Including Oil company Tax (petroleum profit tax)).

note that the Budget is 6trillion and we are borrowing about 2trillion.

Thus the actual expected earn revenue is about 4trillion. of this 4 trillion, oil is contributing about 1.5 trillon. that is about 40% of the actual earnings.

we should diversify our economy. But that does not mean lookingdown on the massive contribution of oil to our economy.

When they told you about shut-ins then your response was angrily largely centred on how the past administrations encouraged bunkering.

Even when told that the 60% Joint Ventures production costs must be funded by Nigeria you violently shouted in anger to show your disdain for thorough scrutiny.

Now that your people are at the other end, it's most convenient for you to start 'displaying your expertise' in oil and gas matters.

Everyone is now a 'PhD holder' and an industry expert when Buhari's calculations on mega billions have all but failed to yield anything.

By next budget, we are expecting more 'tax and audit' experts to display their newly acquired skills from Harvard on why revenues from 'taxes' failed to meet expectations.

I have a question to ask you, tell me what is wrong with the explanation he provided? Is it a propaganda too?
It's better to put something in form of question and as for thorough edification rather than making criticism that will expose someone's low level of understanding. IPob has successfully projected their level of understanding as regards to this issue, that's was why I was reluctant to make explanation because at the end of the day, I will still be insulted.

Regardless.

The point remains that similar explanations have been made in the past which the current protagonists 'angrily' shutdown as 'nonsense'.

Using your previous tactics against you now shouldn't be any big deal to you, because you have used even more vulgar language on someone else in the past.

There wasn't any kind of profanity that was too big for the current occupiers of government offices and their angry supporters when they were in opposition.

Twitting insane profanity about Jesus Christ by the newly elevated 'Social Media Change Agents' was common then as we saw, and it was just because of the rabid hatred for the people in government at the time.

Perhaps if you guys had addressed fundamental issues of that time, things would have been different now.

3. The actual average production per day is about 80% of the Potential production
this is because of 20% shutdown for maintenance, unplanned shut downs, pipeline vandalisation etc.

Thus the Federal govt actual average production per day = 0.8*712,800=570,240.

4. Today the average cost of production per barrel in Nigeria is about $18 per barrel.
Actually some onshore field cost are as low as $10 per barrel while some deep offshore and shallow offshore cost are as high as $25 dollar per barrel. Today more than 60% of Nigeria crude are from Offshore. thus using an average cost of $18 per barrel is realistic.

Thus out of the $38 dollar per barrel price of oil, the net revenue to the govt is about $20 per barrel.

thus the expected revenue to federal government from direct sales of Crude oil in 2016 is:

CIT (Company Income Tax) is different from PPT (Petroleum Profit Tax). Perhaps you need to confirm where exactly PPT is hidden. While CIT is calculated at 30% of taxable profit, PPT is @ 85%. Kindly review and revert so we do not hide some income. You are doing fairly well though! There still lot of gaps for manipulation. Zero based budget should be tightly nitted to avoid siphoning.

Yeah. oil producing companies pay 85% tax on their profit.
Oil servicing companies pays normal company tax of around 30%.

Now that your people are at the other end, it's most convenient for you to start 'displaying your expertise' in oil and gas matters.

Everyone is now a 'PhD holder' and an industry expert when Buhari's calculations on mega billions have all but failed to yield anything.

By next budget, we are expecting more 'tax and audit' experts to display their newly acquired skills from Harvard on why revenues from 'taxes' failed to meet expectations.

please can you show the link to the those post during GEJ govt?? well is true people may have done that out of ignorance.

Re: Why Oil revenue in 2016 budget is just 820 billion naira? An Explanation!! by obailala(m): 1:53pm On Dec 24, 2015
tuale4u:


The IPOB guy did not understand the budget. let me help him explain. I work in oil company.

1. The Federal government budget is the Budget of the federal government alone. Not the Budget of the country.
Thus from the Nigeria sharing formula, the Federal government takes about 54% of the total oil revenue accruing to the country (Nigeria Federation).

2. Most of the oil production in Nigeria are JV and PSC. Using the JV template, Nigeria (the federation not Federal govt) only owns 60% of the oil produced and the Oil companies owns the remaining 40% of the oil produced per day .

thus the 2.2 million per day, only 0.6*2.2million=1.32million belong to Nigeria (The federation).

Federal govt share (Potential) = 0.54*1.32million=712,800 per day.

3. The actual average production per day is about 80% of the Potential production
this is because of 20% shutdown for maintenance, unplanned shut downs, pipeline vandalisation etc.

Thus the Federal govt actual average production per day = 0.8*712,800=570,240.

4. Today the average cost of production per barrel in Nigeria is about $18 per barrel.
Actually some onshore field cost are as low as $10 per barrel while some deep offshore and shallow offshore cost are as high as $25 dollar per barrel. Today more than 60% of Nigeria crude are from Offshore. thus using an average cost of $18 per barrel is realistic.

Thus out of the $38 dollar per barrel price of oil, the net revenue to the govt is about $20 per barrel.

thus the expected revenue to federal government from direct sales of Crude oil in 2016 is:

= $20 *199naira/1$ *570240*366*billion/1000000000= 830billion naira


From my estimation the Federal government expected revenue from direct oil sales is about 830billion naira which is very close to 820 billion naira estimated from federal government.


However, this is not all the federal govt get from having oil in this country. The oil companies pay company tax in hunderds of billion of naira.
But the govt choose to call it company tax because other companies that are not oil companies pay tax too. However the company Tax of oil companies is about 85% of their profit. Thus of the about 1.5 trillion naira expected revenue from Company Income Tax (CIT), Value Added Tax (VAT), Customs and Excise duties, and Federation Account levies, about 50% of it are coming from oil companies.


Thanks for this well articulated explanation, I didnt even know much of this myself. Regarding the IPOb guys, I can assure you that no matter how well you explain this to them, they have already traded their brains for foolish sentiments and would never be able to understand what you are saying. However, do not let their responses discourage you, because there are actually a lot of 'quiet' people on this site who are genuinely willing to learn and who would learn a lot from such brilliant posts.

I have a question to ask you, tell me what is wrong with the explanation he provided? Is it a propaganda too?
It's better to put something in form of question and as for thorough edification rather than making criticism that will expose someone's low level of understanding. IPob has successfully projected their level of understanding as regards to this issue, that's was why I was reluctant to make explanation because at the end of the day, I will still be insulted.

Op, You even have time to explain. You should have allowed them to swim in the pool of ignorance before you rescue them with this on point explanation. I saw the thread too, but when I discovered that it was composed from IPOB section, I just close it and skip to the next topic.
You are just wasting your time because these people won't understand what you meant by JV and PSC.
The time and effort you used to explain this thing to this bunch of dullards could have been used to do something more profitable.
actually the op didn't waste his time. I learnt a lot. Op did a good job breaking it down... Mathematically
