Planned investment is expected to raise oil and gas output, expand infrastructure and bolster upstream investor appeal. NUPRC said new blocks have been opened, with 37 blocks awarded to 31 companies in 2025 and a 2026 oil tender/licensing round being finalized. Nigeria aims to nearly double daily oil output to about 3.0 mln bpd by 2030.
