Chevron To Leave Nigeria To Focus On Shale Back Home by Montracine(op): 6:55pm On Oct 29, 2019
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.

When Nigeria is still exporting crude oil for refining outside this nation? When our refineries are not functioning in optimal capacity even with the billions allocated every now & then for Turn Around Maintenance(TAM)?

Buhari has single handedly destroyed the remaining of the shit-hole with his illogical reasoning and cow-like mentality.


How zombies expected an illiterate to turn the country to paradise is the highest foolish reasoning of all time.


Nigeria is doomed.

Good or bad news for Nigeria?
Re: Chevron To Leave Nigeria To Focus On Shale Back Home by weslay: 10:32pm On Oct 29, 2019
Chevron is pulling out because it is no longer in their best interest to operate in Nigeria.
Do we have Nigerian firms that can sufficiently take over their operations?
For a country that still rely on other countries to fix it's roads, I doubt.
Our leaders need to realize that oil will not be here forever. They need to wake up and take adequate actions because the socioeconomic crisis in Venezuela will be child's play when our wells run dry.

This is the beginning of the end for Nigeria. Shale is far more abundant and cheaper to extract. After destroying our land and poisoning our ecosystem, they now want to pull out.
