Aging oil infrastructure causing production bottlenecks and revenue loss in Nigerian energy sector

Nigerian oil operators face critical infrastructure decay where 50-year-old pipelines and terminals cannot support increased production capacity, preventing the country from reaching its 3 million barrels-per-day target despite regulatory reforms and investment in deepwater operations. Current maintenance and replacement solutions are slow, expensive, and politically complex, leaving operators unable to monetize new production capacity and losing billions in potential revenue.
