The brief nationwide strike by the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria PENGASSAN has led to a significant drop in oil and gas production in Nigeria.
According to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited NNPCL, crude oil output recorded a reduction of about 283,000 barrels per day, roughly 16 of national output, and a reduction of 1.7 billion standard cubic feet per day in gas output, while knocking out more than 1,200 megawatts of power generation, Reuters reported.
