Timipre Sylva: Petroleum Industry Bill Ready For National Assembly by contigiency(m): 6:10am On Aug 21, 2020
The Minister of State, Petroleum Resources, Chief Timipre Sylva, on Thursday assured that the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB) will be presented to the National Assembly in the next few weeks.

Sylva said the executive arm would be requesting the lawmakers to specially reconvene to receive and begin deliberations on the bill. According to him, the bill is key to repositioning of Nigeria’s oil and gas industry under its post COVID-19 agenda.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the minister spoke during a webinar organised by the Nigerian Association of Petroleum Explorationists (NAPE) with the theme: “Fiscal Regime Design, Government Revenues and Investors’ Interest in Nigeria Oil and Gas Sector.

“In the coming few days, we will be requesting the National Assembly to specially reconvene to look at the PIB, which may as well take some weeks before its passage,” Sylva said.

This is a very good news for positive minded Nigerians like all of us @[/b].

A better and more better Nigeria is all we want.

The petroleum industry has led to a significant economic growth in Nigeria. It created thousands of new jobs and income sources for the country. Still, nothing comes without a price!

It has been more than forty years since Nigeria found oil on its lands.
Since then, the petroleum sector has become one of the primary sources of the country`s economy.
Nigeria gets about 90% of its foreign exchange earnings thanks to oil and gas.
According to the current estimates, at least 20% of GDP comes from petroleum.
Therefore, it`s no wonder that petroleum industry is one of the most crucial in Nigeria.
[b]Oil in Nigeria was discovered in 1956.

The first oil state was in Niger Delta.
Even today it`s one of the largest oil-producing states in Nigeria.
The discovery of oil products in Nigeria was done by Shell-BP.
Thanks to this company, Nigeria joined the ranks of oil countries in 1958.
Still, this luxury does not come without a price! Do not forget about pollution!
One of the significant disadvantages for Nigerian Economy is the situation with Ogoni people.
They have suffered from the oil industry impact the most. Positive Contribution of Petroleum to Nigerian Economy The rise of Nigeria in the world arena happened largely because of petroleum.
This income source helped to build the country after the devastating civil war.
At the beginning of the 1950s, petroleum had an insignificant amount in the total export.
According to the statistics, it covered about 2% of export products.
The real rise of petroleum started between 1960 and 1970.
Nigeria could provide only about 5 million barrels per year in the 1960s.
However, at the beginning of the 1970s, this number rose to a fantastic 600 million barrels.
Therefore, governmental revenues from the petroleum industry increased from 66 million Naira in the 1970s to 10 billion in the 1980s.
The energy reserves of Nigeria increased to up to 34 billion barrels.
This number only keeps growing!
At the beginning of the 2000s, petroleum covered about 80% of total export.
Today, it`s about 90%.
Still, due to the recent problems in the petroleum industry, the federal government tries to find new ways of export revenues.
Things can only get better from here forward.
God bless Nigeria.

Annually Nigerians losses about $18 billion to financial ilicit flow. The oil sector contributed a large portion of this losses.

So with urgency i urge the law makers to with out doubt pass the PIB bill alongside the Federal Audit Service Commission bill (FASC) as this will go a long way to curb mis-appropration of public fund

Please for your quality and guaranteed laptops. DM me via 07038517455

Una Good morning o

The First refinery (Port Harcourt.)
It was launched in 1965.
The initial capacity rate is 35,000, while it was developed to up to 60, 000 at the beginning of the 2000s;

The Second (Port Harcourt.) It was established in 1989. The current refining capacity rate is 150,000.

The Kaduna Refinery. It was created in 1980. The current refining capacity rate is 110,000.

The Warri Refinery. It was installed in 1978. The current rate of refining is 125,000.
The combined domestic refinery systems exceeds the domestic consumption. Therefore, it can be sold to other countries.

Federal government has long pledged its intent to overhaul the petroleum industry,
entrenching efficiency and transparency in both upstream and downstream sectors, bringing operations in line with international standards.
Yet the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB), which seeks to increase government revenue from oil and lay down a strengthened legal and regulatory framework for the Nigerian oil industry, has suffered legislative delays and limited consideration from the executive, precluding its passage.

The non-passage of the bill has been a challenge as it has hampered and delayed investments coming into the oil sector.
[b]The lack of a bill brings a lot of uncertainty to the investment climate, therefore, its passing is essential to attract the much-needed funding to Nigeria’s oil sector.


This is a very good news for positive minded Nigerians.

Once again,
God bless Nigeria.
