Chevron and NNPC confirm major oil find in Nigeria’s offshore Niger Delta, boosting production to 146,000 bpd.
Chevron Nigeria Limited, operator of a joint venture with Nigeria’s NNPC Ltd., has successfully completed the Awodi-07 appraisal and exploration well in the shallow offshore western Niger Delta.
Drilling, conducted from late November to mid-December 2025, confirmed substantial hydrocarbon deposits across multiple reservoir zones.
The discovery, achieved safely and in compliance with regulations, strengthens confidence in the region’s potential and supports efforts to increase oil production to about 146,000 barrels per day.
The partners, with Chevron holding a 40% stake, credit the success to technical expertise, collaboration, and reforms under Nigeria’s Petroleum Industry Act.
They plan to advance the project toward development and monetization.
