Nigeria Gas Production & Flaring

Open in the dashboard

Nigeria's gas production each month since January 2021, from the upstream regulator: associated and non-associated gas produced, and where it went (field use, domestic sales, export sales, flared and shrinkage), in million standard cubic feet, with daily averages, shares and calendar-year totals.

Source: Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC), Gas Production Status Report. Volumes are million standard cubic feet for the whole month, as the Commission prints them. The newest two or three months are provisional and are revised when the Commission reconciles the quarter.

Gas produced

Daily average in each month since January 2021, in total and by kind of gas.

Associated gas is produced with crude oil; non-associated gas comes from gas fields.

Where the gas goes

Each use as a share of the gas produced in the month.

Export sales are gas sold for export, mostly feed gas for LNG. Domestic sales go to power, industry and gas-based industries. Field use is fuel, gas lift and re-injection. In a few months the Commission's parts do not add up exactly to its total, so the bars can stop a little short of 100% or pass it; those months are flagged in the Data tab.

Flaring

Gas flared as a share of gas produced, each month.

Computed from the printed volumes; the Commission's own rounded percentage is kept beside it in the data.

By year

Calendar-year totals summed from the months. A year in progress covers only the months reported: compare it through its daily average, not its total.
