Nigeria's Oil Output Averaged 1.64 mb/d in 2025, Data Shows

Key Highlights

  • Nigeria's average crude oil and condensate production reached 1.64 million barrels per day (mb/d) in the first 11 months of 2025.
  • The production figures are based on official data released by the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC).
  • This average reflects combined output of crude oil and condensate.

Nigeria's crude oil and condensate production averaged 1.64 million barrels per day (mb/d) between January and November 2025, according to data from the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC).

The figure represents the combined output of crude oil and condensate, a light hydrocarbon liquid. The NUPRC is the regulatory body responsible for overseeing upstream petroleum operations in Nigeria.

Details regarding the specific breakdown between crude oil and condensate production, as well as a comparative analysis against previous years, were not immediately available. Further analysis will be needed to assess the impact of this production level on Nigeria's revenue and its ability to meet OPEC quotas.

Market watchers are keenly observing Nigeria's oil production trends, as they directly influence the nation's foreign exchange earnings and overall economic stability. Consistent and reliable oil production is crucial for Nigeria to fund its budget and implement key development projects.

Going forward, industry experts anticipate continued efforts to curb crude oil theft and pipeline vandalism, which have historically hampered Nigeria's production capacity. Increased investments in upstream infrastructure are also expected to play a vital role in sustaining and potentially increasing production levels in the coming years.
