The disclosure was made by the Group Managing Director of the NNPC, Mallam Mele Kyari on Thursday, when the Executive Vice President of China National Offshore Oil Corporation, Mr Lu Yan Ji, paid him a business visit at the NNPC Towers in Abuja.

The details: According to the NNPC, strategic partnership and new investments in the Upstream Petroleum Sector are essential for it to actualise the nation’s crude oil reserves, and drive the oil production target of 3 million barrels per day by 2023.
