据普氏能源资讯7月14日拉各斯报道,尼日利亚政府14日在一份声明中表示,尼日利亚总统日前已下令尼日利亚国家石油公司(NNPC)审查其原油产品交换合约以及与贸易公司签署的海上加工协议,这些合约和协议可能使尼日利亚在成品油供应中损失了数百万美元。
总统发言人加巴·塞胡在声明中说,尼日利亚总统曾承诺过对石油部门进行改革、增加其透明度和责任性,因而日前明确指示NNPC审查与石油贸易公司签署的有关原油交换石油产品的协议。
声明说,由于NNPC在政府流动资金短缺时仍花费大量石油收入,公众对此非议日益高涨,尼日利亚总统在这一非常时期作出如此指示。

Nigerian President Orders Review of Crude Oil for Gasoline Deals
Lagos(Platts)--14,July 2015
President Muhammadu Buhari has instructed state oil company Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation to review its crude oil products swap contracts and offshore processing agreements with trading companies that may have cost the country millions of dollars in lost revenue and refined product supply, a government statement said Tuesday.
"The president, in line with his promise of reforms in the oil sector and instill transparency and accountability, has directed the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation to review existing agreements with oil trading companies on the crude oil swap for petroleum products," presidential spokesman Garba Shehu said in the statement.
The president's directive comes amid mounting public criticism of the NNPC for spending a large amount oil revenues even while the government faced tough liquidity squeeze.
