I just hope and pray it's in commercial quantity, just anything that will help speed up the disintegration of this country.

EXACTLY!!!!!

Now it has reached FP, lemme comment. Exploration has been done way back. Tell me they are now drilling, to confirm finds. Not ''official exploration''.

This will be a monumental waste if there are no good geological evidence to warrant drilling.

they(north) are just single and seaching for "oil".

Inasmuch as i pray its true this place looks like south east not north east

Nice move... But I have been asking a question which no one has answered.

HOW WILL OIL FROM THE NORTH BE EXPORTED Will it be piped down south via the same ravaged N/Delta? Or will it be piped to Lagos with the Arepo militants waiting to suck the oil away? Or will you pipe via Niger (a land-locked country that imports through Nigeria) to Libya a war torn country with limited control?

HOW WILL OIL FROM THE LAND LOCKED NORTH BE EXPORTED

Answer this question without insults or name calling

Abuja municipal/worldbank assisted borehole project....loool

erinolu:
Bloody liar.......

This is not Northeast...

1. Check the vegetation....lush and green, indicating its somewhere south

2. Look at the background, you will see pipes.....this company is laying pipeline and of course, its in the south such activities happen, either for gas or oil

3. Exploring without a drilling rig....comon guys, you can do better

You don't sit down in a one room apartment in Onitsha and tell us how the Northeast looks like.

naijaboy756:
Faster please. Let's see if this can share us into 3. The parasites can then become useful to themselves. They too like to suck blood

lol so SOUTH na dog and NORTH.... abeg fill am 4 me. all hail WAILING WAILERS

fulanmafia:


Actually yes. It's called Giginya.

And to those questioning the pictures due to the vegetation, you are all pardonably ignorant.

The North has large areas of lush vegetation just as it has areas that have succumbed to desertification. Ever heard of Fadama? You think all the onions and tomatoes grown in the core North are grown in the desert?

Grab a book or work on your level of exposure.

do you know what a palm tree is?

na dem sabi jare..............

Oil in the west, oil in the south, oil in the North.

Everybody will be settled. To officially go their separate ways.

This called Nigeria only exists on paper.

This is piling work for building and road construction. No oil please!

Y are people propagating false stories? where is the Rig and wireline equipment.... only excavators and pipes.are they laying pipes for crude yet undrilled or they want to tap from down south.

It's a kind of cat.

piped via the south west to the sea ports into tankers....

Seun what has nairaland turned into? How can a blogger bring up an obviously false rubbish like this and it made front page? This is not oil exploration and definitely not north east.

chie8:
It is official.Exploration of oil has started in North East Nigeria.

Details later

please which part of the north east

hopilo:
The technology of today use seismic survey to identify the very place you have crude oil. The era of blind search for oil is long over decades ago. Why waste money today searching for oil in an area with no seismic prove of oil. Nigeria is a funny place

And who says there is no seismic prove of oil in the Chad basin?... Just to the north of the same basin (outside Nigeria's boundaries), Chad extracts commercial quantities of oil from the same basin but you really think there really isn't any seismic prove of a drop of oil (commercial or non-commercial quantity) in the Nigerian side?

Chai. But I can't see the photos u said u took nau.
What's this? Abi is this how drilling of oil nau look like?

i thought as much pls stop confusing people

boko haram will eat them for break fast.

Palm oil or groundnut oil? Becus I knw notin good comes out frm dat bald land of dias

sarrki:



It's through population countries can progress

Pls stop all this Disintegration of a thing.

Countries like Qatar,Sweden, Switzerland would have been super power if they had the population

Come to think where are those leaders that will manage your resources if you go your own way same leader that can not manage FAAC, 13% Derivation & IGR they generate from their respective states?

There is strength in DIVERSITY! !!!

So Nigeria Buhari and Obasanjo are the kind of leaders they need according to your flawed logic. Because suddenly Nigerian leaders have become epitomes of good leadership

Afterall not all can be deceived. Good observation!

What's d population size of Russia and South Africa

Russia ranks in top 10 most populous countries in the world

What did the avenger sponsor searched for in his six years in office?

PaulIdu:
Others are searching for vast sources of lithium but Buhari is still searching for oil in 2016. This is the lack of vision that made me stop supporting him

Efe3:
wow, I didn't know North Eastern Nigeria had such dense green vegetation, I could have mistook the site for somewhere in the Niger Delta.

Haba, even if you can't physically leave the junction of your village, it's still possible to use google. Stop thinking that everything after 9th mile is arid desert.

l can only see people sinking bore hole in the community for d arrival of IDP Campees to their home as part of rehabilitation process to basic amenities.Ops If u say otherwise,let's hv a prove showing when n how d MOU was signed with pictures and the company's name.We don't mind prove from national newspapers that carried the news.Tho i will welcome such...............tho agriculture may overtake oil.

Northern elites think they are wise,by using tax payers money from the south to do so,exploring what cannot be discovered

eh you ignorant OP...

next time plz do ur research very well b4 coming to post information especially Pictures here ok..

That picture is in the Niger-delta because the geology of the Soil & environment dont look like that of the Chad basin in North-east Nigeria ok.

Those guys are doing either laying flowlines or doing flowline repairs ok.

This lie tho

PaulIdu:

Searching for lithium to build batteries to store solar power.

We hear nothing about solar farms in the North, still talking about fossil fuels and currency restrictions in 2016.
