The Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) says Nigeria’s daily crude output dropped to an average of 1.24 million barrels per day from 1.25 million in February 2022.

The commission disclosed this in its latest crude oil and condensate production data for March 2022.

According to the NUPRC figure, this represents a 0.80 per cent decrease from the previous month, representing the lowest production capacity so far in the year.
