In the report, the corporation announced an increase in trading surplus of N5.28 billion in its December 2019 operations compared to the N3.95 billion posted in November last year. This represents a 34% increase.

The corporation explained that the 34% increase in trading surplus for the period was as a result of improved performance of some of its entities both in the upstream and downstream sectors.

It noted that the performance was impacted positively by reduced deficit which was posted by NNPC corporate headquarters and adjustments to previously understated revenue from Duke Oil and Integrated Data Services Limited.

The NNPC sold 21.51 billion litres of white products between December, 2018 and December, 2019. “The revenues generated from the sales of white products for the period stood at N2,705.76 billion, with PMS contributing about 97.56% of the sales with a value of N2,639.68 billion,” the corporation said.

The corporation further disclosed that PPMC made N337.63 billion from sales of white products as of December 2019, when compared to N105.62 billion in November 2018.

This comprises of 2.76 billion litres of petrol, 0.013 billion litres of diesel and 0.003 billion litres of low pure fuel oil

On pipeline vandalism, the Mosimi-Ibadan axis accounted for 31% of the breaks-in, while Atlas Cove-Mosimi network witnessed 19% in November 2018
