Oil Blocks Ownership -- The Closest To The Truth. by 989900: 5:33pm On May 12, 2016
1. Those info and data released by them 'scavengers' are false.

2. Ownership of oil blocks in Nigeria is enshrined in fraud and secrecy, with players from the past and present and all tribes and parts of the country involved.

3. Most of the active Oil Mining Leases and Oil Prospecting Leases are awarded to foreign companies.

4. Most indigenous companies are doing nothing serious with their licences but scam, and that does not exclude any tribe.

5. Northerners are much involved than southerners is not a verifiable fact.

6. IBB started this scam, and every one got on the train favouring their own; all the way to Abdusalam, OBJ, GEJ and Diezani.

7. They are leases and have expiry, and the owners of them don't actually own them in the real sense of it.

8. They should be reviewed and made public.

9. The 'scavengers' are some misguided entities probably with a tint of sincere ignorance/plain actors actors playing out a script -- working out their angle for some elite.

10. Follow the links below to have a better idea of what ownership of those blocks look like . . . not 100% accurate though, 'cause everything is shrouded in secrecy and 'padi-padism' with no tribe left out. However, still a better pointer than the 'scavengers' claim.


Nigerians currently own 52 per cent of the country’s 173 active oil blocs, while foreign oil companies own 48 per cent. He added that of the total of 388 oil blocks in the country, only 173 of them have been awarded to individuals and corporations, while 215 blocks were yet to be awarded. Broken further, of the 173 so far awarded, Nigerians owned 90 blocks while foreigners owned 83 blocks.

He, however, lamented that all the 90 blocks awarded to indigenous players account for only six per cent of the country’s total crude oil production, while the 83 awarded to foreign oil companies account for 94 per cent of the total output. Steering the hornets’ nest The Chairman, Senate Committee on Business and Rules, Senator Ita Enang, a forth night ago steered the hornets’ nest, when he alleged that 83 percent of Nigeria’s oil blocks were in the control of the northern region.

This led to a series of claims and counter claims by various groups in the different geographical regions in the country, including activists and non-governmental organisations, NGOs. Many even called for a review of oil block awards.

Even newspapers (not Vanguard) went agog with their own versions of the real oil block owners. However, DPR’s recent pronouncements on the issue that Nigerians own 80 oil bocks where foreigners had 83 have nullified every other previous pronouncements on the controversial oil blocks ownership, including the list of 77 oil blocks and their owners recently published by one of the dailies. Analysts are of the view that to end the controversy, the DPR should go a step further to publish the full list of the 173 oil blocks so far awarded, indicating who owned what, whether local or foreign.

The first link looks like the most verifiable.
