据油价网4月10日消息,尼日利亚媒体报道称,尼日利亚上个月的石油日产量为151.7万桶,比2月份下降了2%,而2月份的平均日产量环比增长了3.5%。
这些来自尼日利亚上游石油监管委员会的数据与产量持续增长的预期相反,这意味着该国可能达不到预算所需的产量水平,即2023年全年平均169万桶的日产量。
这是尼日利亚石油工业在过去六个月里石油产量首次下降。然而,即使最近产量有所增加,尼日利亚仍然没有达到欧佩克的产量目标,即180万桶/天。
尼日利亚一直落后于其生产配额,但这只是OPEC+在提高产量方面面临的其中一个问题。现在,欧佩克再次减产,仅沙特阿拉伯就承诺每天减产50万桶。
尼日利亚不在承诺进一步减产的OPEC+成员国之列,这些国家包括了沙特阿拉伯、阿联酋、科威特、伊拉克、阿尔及利亚、阿曼、加蓬和哈萨克斯坦。
与此同时,尼日利亚已加大努力,提高其长期生产前景。上个月,国有能源巨头NNPC开始在陆上盆地进行勘探工作,旨在将该国已探明的石油储量从370亿桶扩大到500亿桶。
尼日利亚国家石油公司首席执行官mele Kyari表示,已探明储量的增加应该有助于加强尼日利亚的能源安全,提高国家的经济效益。

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.
