Nigeria produced 236,229,281 barrels of crude oil in the first half of 2024, according to the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC).

Monthly production figures show 44.2 million barrels in January, 38.3 million in February, 38.1 million in March, 38.4 million in April, 38.8 million in May, and 38.3 million in June.

This production marks an increase from 219.5 million barrels in the same period in 2023 but is lower than the 302.42 million barrels produced in the first half of 2020.

The average daily production fluctuated from 1.43 million barrels per day (mbpd) in January to a low of 1.23mbpd in March, with slight recoveries in subsequent months.

Mele Kyari, Group CEO of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, highlighted the challenges of oil theft and vandalism, which hinder investment and production.
