Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Linkedin

The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), said foreign vessels operating in Nigerian waters without a valid license would be banned.

This was disclosed by the agency in a statement on Sunday, and seen by Nairametrics. NIMASA says shipping companies that operate in Nigerian waters without a license, have 3 months to comply with the new regulations.

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.
