The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Limited)
declared N60.5trn in revenue and N5.76trn Profit After Tax (PAT) in the 2025
financial year.
The NNPC Limited in its December 2025 Monthly Report Summary,
highlighted key figures including crude oil and condensate production, natural
gas output, revenue, PAT, strategic initiatives during the period under review.
The report revealed that crude oil production remained
relatively moderate and pipeline maintenance activities disrupted some operations
in the financial year.
It showed that average crude oil and condensate production stood
at 1.54 million barrels per day (mbpd) showing steady output amid ongoing
infrastructure upgrades and security challenges across producing regions.
It showed that gas production recorded 6,914 million standard
cubic feet per day (mmscfd) in December as monthly figures showed output
peaking above 7,500 mmscfd mid-year before tapering slightly toward year-end.
The report said gas sales was also steady averaging over 4,700
mmscfd showing NNPC’s leaning toward gas as Nigeria’s transition fuel and key
revenue stabiliser.
The report also indicated that profitability saw dips in some
months, with marginal losses recorded early in the year before rebounding
strongly between March and June while operational reliability indicators
improved considerably:
On upstream pipeline availability, Obiafu-Obrikom-Oben (OB3) Gas
Pipeline recorded 100 per cent availability, Ajaokuta-Kaduna-Kano (AKK)
Gas Pipeline, 91 per cent while the NNPC Retail (NRL) and station availability
recorded 65 per cent.
The data revealed significant gains in network stability and
product distribution efficiency, particularly in the second half of the year.
It said that planned maintenance and upgrade works at
Stardeep-Agbami, Renaissance-Estuary Area (EA) and unplanned production
facility outages affected December production performance.
It also reported successful completion of key engineering works,
including river crossings and mainline welding operations as scheduled at AKK
Mainline.
The company said it successfully completed the OB3 River Niger
Crossing, all early works and commenced Pilot Hole drilling, adding that the
project is on course and to be completed as scheduled.
