CBN blames ageing pipelines for oil revenue crash

Published

on

The Central Bank of Nigeria has attributed the significant decline in oil revenue for the third quarter of 2024 to ageing pipeline infrastructure and operational inefficiencies.

According to the apex bank’s latest economic report for the third quarter of 2024, oil revenue fell by 24.72 per cent to N1.30tn compared to the second quarter of 2024.

This drop was largely due to lower receipts from petroleum profit tax and royalties.

Also, the revenue figure fell short of the quarterly target by 75.39 per cent, primarily due to frequent shut-ins caused by deteriorating pipelines and installations.

The report read, “Oil revenue, however, fell by 24.72 per cent to N1.30tn, relative to the level in Q2 2024 on account of lower receipts from petroleum profit tax and royalties.

“It was also 75.39 per cent short of the quarterly target due to shut-ins, arising from ageing oil pipelines and installations.”

It also noted that despite a modest increase in crude oil production to 1.33 million barrels per day from 1.27 mbpd in the preceding quarter, challenges including theft, vandalism, and infrastructure deficits severely hampered Nigeria’s oil revenue performance.

The ageing infrastructure not only reduced efficiency but also undermined the country’s ability to meet its OPEC production quota.

The report noted that global factors further compounded the situation, as the average spot price of Nigeria’s Bonny Light crude fell by 5.45 per cent to $82.23 per barrel during the quarter, reflecting subdued demand in the global market.

Similar declines were observed in other crude benchmarks, including Brent and the OPEC Reference Basket.

While the oil sector struggled, the Nigerian economy recorded growth of 3.46 per cent in Q3 2024, up from 3.19 per cent in the second quarter, driven largely by the non-oil sector, which contributed 3.18 percentage points to total GDP growth.

The oil sector’s growth slowed to 5.17 per cent year-on-year, compared to 10.15 per cent in the previous quarter, as operational inefficiencies and declining crude oil prices took a toll.

The fiscal implications were significant, with federally collected revenue falling 23.71 per cent short of the budget benchmark, despite a 7.48 per cent quarter-on-quarter increase.

The fiscal deficit, although narrowing by 22.51 per cent compared to the previous quarter, widened by 43.88 per cent relative to the quarterly target, reflecting ongoing fiscal pressures.

The report concluded that Nigeria’s goal of achieving an oil production target of 2mbpd by the end of 2024 remains under threat due to these challenges.

Petrol to sell at N935 per litre from today-IPMAN

Published

on

The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), says the price of petrol will drop to N935 per litre by Monday in view of Dangote Refinery’s new arrangement.

IPMAN said the new price was necessitated by the reduction in Dangote Refinery’s fuel ex-depot price and uniform arrangement, which would enable marketers to sell at N935 in their outlets nationwide.

Alhaji Maigandi Garima, IPMAN National President, who made this known on Sunday in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja, lauded the Dangote refinery for the development.

NAN reports that Dangote refinery recently announced a significant reduction in fuel price by 7.27 per cent from N970 per litre to N899.50 per litre at its loading gantry and provided generous credit terms to marketers.

In the bid to ensure that the price reduction gets to the end consumers, it signed a partnership with MRS to sell petrol from its retail outlets nationwide at N935.

The price reduction which is designed by Dangote refinery to alleviate transport cost during the festive period and beyond, has already commenced in Lagos, and will be offered nationwide from Monday.

“Dangote refinery has brought another new arrangement of loading and pricing by which marketers would pay a fixed ex-depot price of N899. 50k.

“The refinery is running a programme whereby it wants the fuel consumption across the country to be at the same rate. We are expecting the new arrangement to kick-start on Monday.

“We have been loading from the Dangote refinery and the refinery is saving us in this festive period,’’ he said.

The IPMAN president said previously it was loading at N970 per litre at Dangote refinery, but based on the arrangement and promise from Dangote, by Monday fuel price will drop to N935.

Garima said the downstream sector competition being witnessed currently was expected by marketers since due to deregulation, adding that it would see the price of fuel dropping continuously.

“That is the reason why we have been asking the government to allow private sectors to participate in the refinery business.

“Very soon more refineries are coming up and the country will see a lot of price reduction in the downstream sector,’’ he said.

He recalled that during the 2023 yuletide, per litre of fuel was sold at N2, 000 in the Northern and Eastern part of the country because fuel was being imported at that period.

He added that the highest price of which fuel could be sold there currently is N1, 100 because refineries are running in the country.

“By the time Warri and Kaduna resume production, one can buy products at cheaper rates and it is good for the economy,’’ he added.

He however commended the Naira for the crude swap deal, adding that it is a good development for the growth of the economy.

The NNPC Ltd. had also slashed fuel ex-depot price from N1, 020 to N899.

The fuel price reduction reflects response to deregulation and increased industry competition.

SEC orders public companies to publish financial statements online by Jan 2025

Published

on

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has issued a new directive requiring all publicly listed companies in Nigeria to publish their financial statements on their official websites, effective January 2025.

This was disclosed in a circular issued by the Commission on Thursday, stressing the importance of the move for investor confidence and regulatory compliance.

The SEC warned that non-compliance with this directive would attract strict sanctions, demonstrating its commitment to improving transparency and accessibility in the Nigerian equities market.

According to the SEC, “The Securities and Exchange Commission (‘the Commission’) has observed that public companies file their periodic returns with the Commission and relevant securities exchanges without simultaneously publishing the same on their websites. This omission contravenes Rules 39 and 41 of the Commission’s Rules and Regulations.”

The Commission noted that while publicly listed companies routinely file periodic returns with it and relevant securities exchanges, many fail to make these financial statements accessible to the investing public on their websites. This practice, it noted, violates the requirement to ensure that financial disclosures are readily available to guide investors in making informed decisions.

SEC explained the rationale for the directive, stating that publishing financial statements online provides seamless access for the investing public. This ease of access, the Commission said, is essential for encouraging sound investment decisions and ensuring investor confidence in the market.

“Timely disclosures remain a key component of shareholder engagement,” the Commission stated. “The publication of periodic returns on their websites is aimed at providing seamless access by the public to such information, which would serve as a guide to making sound investment decisions.”

The Commission further noted that effective from January 2025, any public company that fails to simultaneously file its periodic returns with the SEC and relevant securities exchanges and publish them on its website will face penalties.
