@damocool time will tell. Not sounding like Ondo's new pardon my mis-representation perhaps i meant more considering the terrain. Goodluck to you guys who see it as a tribal heritage...I'm from the oil region both father and mother's side where a refinery is hosted.It fundamentally means next to nothing to me.I've never benefited indirectly or directly from it...Oil has caused too much problems,We are even wishing it away |

GreatSE: The same Almajiris will rule and ride you like a donkey in 2019. Abi didn't your son Ekwueremadu go with his red cap as chairman of His committee to zone presidency to them? In fact, have they not been riding, ruling and running you like dogs since 1959? 3 Likes |

Well in theory, Ghana found oil too, but in practice, the oil was not in enough commercial quantity to effect any economic transformation in Ghana. |

damocool: Oil is not the only means of acquiring wealth or development. The rest of the world (and individuals in Lagos) are using solar and other renewable energy and some people remain fixated on oil in 2016? Why is the north not pursuing solar farms as a way of powering industry? That would make more sense than obsessing over a dirty fossil fuel. 1 Like |

it is one thing to discover oil,it is another to strike it in a commercial quantity to attract serious investors fund and in the face of expected dwindling price and environmental pollution with attendant social unrest,it does not call for celebration .I think mineral wealth cannot make a country rich .it only enrich a few...we should move away from this third world mentality of raw material exportation that does not add value to total industrialization,mechanized agriculture,ict,tourism and sport recreation,human capital development,scientech research and development, intellectual property ,fishing,forestry,manufacturing,etc .These Will create stable jobs and Pull Million Of Nigerian Out Of Poverty Faster Than The Discovery Of Trillions Of Reserve Of Gold,oil,silver ,diamond In A Particular Place. 1 Like |

Quakertellicus1: To want to control the price is a wrong approach to seeing the big picture. Innovation is embedded in Oil and Gas business and it was what brought it to this state and will deliver more. Our leaders in the past had been on the back foot. Crude oil has over 19 direct derivatives, and to the best of my knowledge we're just scratching the 4th. When you go into the realm of Gas, over 10 different industries (modestly speaking) can be spun-off. If we have set our objective on maximising the full value chain, we would have been making more in terms of revenues, price or no price. Do you know in some countries, governments make so much money to the extent that bonafide citizens are even given cash returns from oil returns? Oil is what triggered the American industrialisation in the 1800s. I recommend you read the book, "The Prize" by Daniel Yergin............... 2 Likes |

jpphilips: Oga oooo. I didn't bother to check your profile and as these is a faceless forum I wouldn't like to start throwing jabs or insult at people. From my post on this thread you can see that I didn't tow the line of dissidents against the prospectus of Lagos or SW having oil. I guess you are a SW by Gods grace I am from Akwa ibom and I am just through with my BEng in petroleum Engineering preparing for service. The thread had taken an unexpected detour from the initial ideal behind the post and from my look at issues on this post, some engineers/scientists were trying to shed light on some grey areas but because of the bigotry and ethnic hate that has greeted the thread every post of enlightenment is now taken as an insult or affront. I can't use a page to school/enlighten you on the technicalities of a source rock, igneous rock, sedimentary rock/basin and formations. I have never done an appraisal of Lagos fields so I can't say if Lagos or ekiti have oil bearing recoverable and viable formations but I was trying to correct erroneous beliefs on the technicalities of crude deposits. please don't always resort to insult when dealing with people. I understand that it is becoming the status quo to win an argument here. I know you are not relevant intellectually to my field and posts by engineer/scientists whether SS or SW are all having a homogeneous conformity. what you think you know on this is far bigger than you. and my words are not jargons 2 Likes |

jpphilips: in my local government we have over 70 oil wells that were drilled over 30 years ago, I wasn't even born then but they are still corked till now. why? some are marginal for the company: the formations may be complex and spending on them may not be viable in the long run. there are so many engineering and economical decisions to take over this. the same applies to the whole of Niger delta. there are so many corked wells for decades. the Lagos field is not even producing what many onshore fields are producing in Niger Delta. if your rational of thinking is right then the whole local governments in Niger Delta would be producing oil, but that is far from the truth. cross river and even down to Cameroon should be producing as much as the other regions. Do you known that it is cheaper to produce oil in the Arab lands fulilled with deserts than any where around the world? do you know why that is possible and why huge amounts of oil are found there even onshore?? you can't argue my discipline with me. if you tell me your field of endeavour I may not be able to grabble with you but the fact that I am a novice at yours doesn't make me stupid or mean I should resort to sneering on you to make a point. 2 Likes |
