The agency informed international oil shipping companies operating in Nigeria’s oil and gas sector, that the ban will go into effect after 3 months, and the new law also applies to companies with expired licenses.

Vessels that lift Nigerian Crude oil are mostly foreign-owned, and NIMASA is looking to raise revenues through shipping charges from registered shipping companies, in a bid to diversify earnings away from oil.
