The Nigerian Navy said it dismantled illegal crude oil refining activities and recovered suspected stolen crude oil in the Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni area of Rivers State.
This was disclosed in a statement issued on Saturday via its verified X handle.
The Navy said the operation was carried out under its flagship maritime security initiative, Operation Delta Sentinel.

You’re right. Nigeria already has the capacity for 3 million barrels a day, so blocking stolen oil could really make a big difference.
It makes me wonder how quickly output could improve if theft is properly tackled
The govt should block all stolen oil so that the nation can increase the out put ...
Nigeria have the capacity of 3 million barrel a day ...

Who and who is behind the stealing? Those behind such acts should be mentioned and persecuted. Most of these things are done by government officials.
That’s a serious concern. If oil theft is really going to stop, those involved should actually be identified and held accountable.
Sometimes it feels like these things continue because the people behind them are never exposed or properly prosecuted.
 
It won't be surprising

It won't be surprising to know that the politicians or the so called big business people are involved . The question now is, who is going to persecute them?
