The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has released its April 2025 Monthly Report, showcasing the company’s operational and financial performance.
This move underscores NNPC Limited’s commitment to transparency and accountability.
The report highlights a crude oil and condensate production of 1.56 million barrels per day in April, showing a downward trend from 1.67 million barrels per day in January.
However, natural gas production increased to 7,473 million standard cubic feet per day, up from 7,120 million standard cubic feet per day recorded in February.
NNPCL also generated ₦5.89 trillion in revenue during the month, with a profit after tax of ₦748 billion.
The company’s statutory payments for the first quarter amounted to ₦4.225 trillion.
This financial performance reflects NNPCL’s strategic initiatives aimed at enhancing Nigeria’s oil and gas sector.

The OB3 project is now 95% complete, while AKK has reached 70% completion. Upstream pipeline availability remained high at 97%.
Persecondnews reports that NNPCL is poised to drive growth through strategic investments, with four final investment decisions expected in the next six months.

These projects are expected to boost Nigeria’s energy output, increase crude oil production, and enhance the country’s fertilizer production capacity.
