Getting this process right s pivotal to steering the nation’s economy back on track“, he stated.

Engr. Simbi Wabote, the Executive Secretary of NCDMB, described the MoU signing as a crucial step forward in enhancing Nigeria’s crude oil production.

Representatives from IOCs, including Shell, ExxonMobil, Chevron, TotalEnergies, and ENI, voiced their commitment and support for the MoU’s implementation and pledged to ensure that all parties involved reap the benefits of the partnership.

Key benefits of the MOU
