據(jù)油價(jià)網(wǎng)4月10日消息，尼日利亞媒體報(bào)道稱(chēng)，尼日利亞上個(gè)月的石油日產(chǎn)量為151.7萬(wàn)桶，比2月份下降了2%，而2月份的平均日產(chǎn)量環(huán)比增長(zhǎng)了3.5%。

這些來(lái)自尼日利亞上游石油監(jiān)管委員會(huì)的數(shù)據(jù)與產(chǎn)量持續(xù)增長(zhǎng)的預(yù)期相反，這意味著該國(guó)可能達(dá)不到預(yù)算所需的產(chǎn)量水平，即2023年全年平均169萬(wàn)桶的日產(chǎn)量。

這是尼日利亞石油工業(yè)在過(guò)去六個(gè)月里石油產(chǎn)量首次下降。然而，即使最近產(chǎn)量有所增加，尼日利亞仍然沒(méi)有達(dá)到歐佩克的產(chǎn)量目標(biāo)，即180萬(wàn)桶/天。

尼日利亞一直落后于其生產(chǎn)配額，但這只是OPEC+在提高產(chǎn)量方面面臨的其中一個(gè)問(wèn)題。現(xiàn)在，歐佩克再次減產(chǎn)，僅沙特阿拉伯就承諾每天減產(chǎn)50萬(wàn)桶。

尼日利亞不在承諾進(jìn)一步減產(chǎn)的OPEC+成員國(guó)之列，這些國(guó)家包括了沙特阿拉伯、阿聯(lián)酋、科威特、伊拉克、阿爾及利亞、阿曼、加蓬和哈薩克斯坦。

與此同時(shí)，尼日利亞已加大努力，提高其長(zhǎng)期生產(chǎn)前景。上個(gè)月，國(guó)有能源巨頭NNPC開(kāi)始在陸上盆地進(jìn)行勘探工作，旨在將該國(guó)已探明的石油儲(chǔ)量從370億桶擴(kuò)大到500億桶。

尼日利亞國(guó)家石油公司首席執(zhí)行官mele Kyari表示，已探明儲(chǔ)量的增加應(yīng)該有助于加強(qiáng)尼日利亞的能源安全，提高國(guó)家的經(jīng)濟(jì)效益。

Nigeria’s Oil Production Drops For The First Time In Six Months 

Nigeria produced 1.517 million barrels of oil per day last month, down by 2% from February, Nigerian media reported, noting that the February average had represented a monthly increase of 3.5%. 

The figures come from the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission and counter expectations of a continued increase in output. This means that the country might miss the output level needed for the budget, which stands at 1.69 million bpd for full 2023. 

This was the first production decline in Nigeria’s oil industry in the last six months. However, even with the recent production increases, Nigeria remained short of its OPEC production target, which stands at 1.8 million bpd. 

Nigeria has been lagging behind with its production quota but that was only a problem when OPEC+ was boosting production. Now, the cartel is cutting again, with Saudi Arabia alone pledging half a million barrels daily in output reduction. 

Understandably, Nigeria is not among the OPEC+ members that have made commitments for additional cuts. These include Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Iraq, Algeria, Oman, Gabon, and OPEC+ member Kazakhstan. 

Nigeria, meanwhile, has stepped up efforts to boost its long-term production prospects. State-owned energy major NNPC began exploration works in onshore frontier basins last month, aiming to expand the country’s proven oil reserves from 37 billion barrels to 50 billion barrels. 

The boost in proven reserves should serve to enhance Nigeria’s energy security and improve economic benefits for the nation, according to NNPC’s chief executive, mele Kyari.
