Nigeria’s Oil Production Dips, as TAM on Facilities Progress

The Nigerian Crude Oil & Condensate Production in November has been reported to decline by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited, NNPC Ltd., recording 1.60 mmbopd, while the country’s Natural Gas Production stood at 6,968 mmscf/d in the same period under review.

The slight reduction in production from the month-to-month record in production performance was largely due to planned maintenance activities across key assets (Esso-Erha, Stardeep-Agbami, and Renaissance-Estuary Area).

According to NNPC Ltd’s monthly report released in November 2025, the maintenance exercise, which is nearing completion, and production recovery expected by the end of December 2025, has resulted in continued delays with WAEP’s first oil. 

Further in the report, it disclosed that all facilities’ turn-around maintenance (TAM) and production initiatives from JV, PSC, and NEPL assets, in preparation for delivering the 2026 production plan, which was originally scheduled for 2025, have also been completed.

The corporation has intensified collaboration with its partners through the year-end and into 2026 to ensure improved production performance, maximise infrastructure uptime, and maintain high facility maintenance standards across all assets.
